Abstract
This research paper reviews theories of leadership and creativity in depth. It then investigates the relationship between transformational leadership (TFL) and employee creativity (EC), aiming to find a suitable leadership approach that can enhance employees' creativity in the banking sector in Vietnam. The quantitative method was applied, and SurveyMonkey software was used to collect data sets of full-time staff working in commercial banks in Vietnam. They hold a minimum bachelor’s degree and have experience of at least six months. The framework and hypotheses were tested using SPSS software to analyse data. Findings confirm that transformational leadership is a suitable leadership style that positively affects EC and suggests that banking leaders should apply transformational leadership to daily banking activity to improve the staff’s creativity.
