Serial mediating role of transformational leadership and perception of artificial intelligence use in the effect of employee happiness on innovative work behaviour in nurses
This study revealed that nurse happiness has a significant and positive effect on innovative work behaviors, and transformational leadership and perception of artificial intelligence use have a serial mediating role in this relationship. Ultimately, this research offers some theoretical and practical implications for practitioners by emphasizing the strategic importance of transformational leadership practices and the integration of artificial intelligence technologies, as well as increasing the happiness levels of nurses to promote innovation in healthcare services.
