Constantly changing environment of modern business has led to high competition among 
rivals, and creativity has become a crucial factor in success of organizations. Architecture 
industry, in particular demands creativity and innovative behavior from employees. 
Authentic leadership has been found as an appropriate leadership style to cultivate 
aforementioned desired behaviors. On the other hand, motivation has been found as a 
significant factor influencing the creative and innovative behavior of staff. This study has 
employed a deductive quantitative approach to examine the influence of authentic 
leadership on creativity and innovative work behavior through intrinsic motivation. The 
findings of PLS-SEM analysis reveals that authentic leadership is positively correlated 
with creativity, innovative work behavior and intrinsic motivation, while intrinsic 
motivation does not mediate the authentic leadership-creativity and authentic leadership innovative work behavior relationships. The insignificant relationships may be due to 
existence of other mediators involved in the aforementioned relationships, which can be 
investigated by future studies. The theoretical and practical implications of findings have 
been elaborated in the final chapter. 
Keywords: Architecture Industry, Authentic Leadership, Employee’s Creativity, 
Innovative Work Behavior, Intrinsic Motivation, Iran.
