Abstract: The Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries plays an important role in making the sea the future of the nation with three mission pillars, namely the mission of sovereignty, sustainability, and welfare. To realize this missions, the ministry carries out bureaucratic reform and innovates in community service, which depends on the innovative work behavior of its middle managers. This study analyzes the direct effect of transformational leadership and self-determination on innovative work behavior. The mediation roles of person-organization fit and social media usage are also tested. One hundred thirty middle managers were selected as respondents and completed the questionnaire online. The analyzing of this research data was carried out with structural equation modeling. This research output clearly shows innovative work behavior improvement among middle managers. It can be used as a basis for consideration for middle managers in formulating policies related to innovative work behavior by focusing on more appropriate transformational leadership and self-determination, as well as the involvement of person-organization fit and social media usage.
