The study is to present a model for the impact of transformational leadership on the creativity of the Ministry of Sports and Youth staff. It is worth noting that this study was descriptive and correlational. The statistical population was 1171 employees of the Ministry of Sports and Youth that 370 people were randomly selected as the sample. The research tools were: “transformational leadership questionnaires” of Bass and Avolio (2004), “Creativity” of George and Zhou Employees (2001), “Creative Self-Efficacy” of Karwowski et al. (2013) and Dul and Ceylan “Physical Work Environment” (2011). The formal and content validity of the research instrument was confirmed by a group of expert professors and the validity of its structure was confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis based on the structural equation model. The reliability of the questionnaires was also reported using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. To analyze the data, SPSS software, SPASS. Sample Power, Amos and Smart PLS. were used.
The results showed that transformational leadership increases employee creativity. Creative self-efficacy also acts as a mediator and physical work environment as a moderator in the relationship between transformational leadership and employee creativity in the Department of Sports and Youth. Based on the results, it can be said that the managers of the Ministry of Sports and Youth should pay more attention to the physical work environment in the workplace and their management policies, which will increase creativity in employees. The managers should also pay attention to the physical aspects of the physical work environment, which stimulates and enhances the positive mood in employees and makes their thinking more creative.
