Abstract: The study aimed to examine the influence of shared governance (SG) implementation on employee work innovative behaviour (EWIB), mediated by employee engagement (EE), and moderated by leadership. To achieve this goal, the authors adopted the cross-sectional, quantitative research design to survey a convenience sample of nurses working in hospitals well known for implementing SG among their nurses. The study revealed that the SG implementation had a significant direct influence on EE (t = 7.25, P < 0.01) and EWIB (t = 6.51, P < 0.000), and EE had a significant effect on EWIB (t = 3.83, P < 0.000). Moreover, EE partially mediated the relationship between SG and EWIB (t = 3.15, P = 0.002). The study disclosed an insignificant moderating effect of leadership on the relationship between SG and EE (t = 2.17, P = 0.03), and SG and EWIB (T = 0.415, P = 0.68). The study confirmed the value of SG and its superiority in utilising employee power to enhance organisational innovation and recommended educating managers about SG.
