Employee knowledge is crucial if organizations are to innovate and develop a competitive advantage. It is therefore essential to know how to create an organizational climate that cultivates innovation among employees (Deshpande and Farley, 2004; Nybakk and Jenssen, 2012; Patterson, Warr, and West, 2004). Isaksen and Ekvall (2010) noted that the deliberate management of organizational climates supportive of innovation is a key challenge, for those who lead and manage organizations. More specifically, France, Mott, and Wagner (2007) assert that failing to innovate can place organizations at risk and thus potentially diminish their ability to sustain or gain a competitive advantage. They argue that the challenge of being competitive can be met if organizations recognize that their ability to innovate is inextricably linked to the manner in which their leaders, people, climate, culture as well as structures support innovation and creativity.
