Abstract: Innovation is key to maintaining organizational competitiveness in today's globalized world. Leadership plays a crucial role in the success of innovation, with visionary leadership being particularly significant. Understanding how visionary leadership enhances team innovation through knowledge collaboration is essential. Team innovation occurs when members collaborate to generate new ideas and solutions, while knowledge collaboration involves sharing information, experiences, and expertise to achieve common goals. This collaboration is vital for innovation, as diverse knowledge can lead to more creative and effective solutions. This study employs an explanatory approach to analyze the relationship between these variables. A purposive sampling method was used to select 280 respondents, all of whom were innovation staff at nine palm oil mill companies, with a minimum of one year of employment. Hypothesis testing was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Amos, allowing for a complex analysis of the relationships involved. The findings reveal that increasing visionary leadership positively impacts team knowledge collaboration and subsequently enhances team innovation. These insights underscore the importance of visionary leadership in fostering an environment that promotes collaboration and innovation, offering practical implications for organizations looking to improve team performance and drive successful innovation initiatives.
