culture is also one of the important linking elements for IWB. It is defined as how
employees view their work culture and how they perceive leadership support for

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of participative leadership in
employees’ innovation work behaviour between two high performance Work Culture
Companies – IBM and HP Malaysia. In order to meet the finding purpose, a
questionnaire surveys was conducted for this study. There is a total of 205 complete
questionnaires collected. All respondents were picked from the Operational department
of both IBM Sdn. Bhd. and HP Sdn. Bhd. to make a comparison between
employees/respondents of the same working background. Results of the survey
demonstrated that high performance work culture and participative leadership in an
organization has positive relationship with employee’s innovation work behaviour and
