Background and Objective: Employee creativity is a key element for
achieving sustainable competitive advantage in both private and public
organizations. This study aims to explore the influence of leadership styles
and feedback behavior on employee creativity growth, considering the
mediating role of the communication mechanism among employees of
public clinics in Zanjan.

Materials and Methods: This applied study follows a descriptive-survey
approach. Data were collected through field observations, questionnaire
distribution, and library research related to the study variables. The
statistical population included all employees of public clinics in Zanjan. From
209 people, 135 were randomly selected as the sample based on Cochran's
formula. The questionnaires were distributed and completed by these
individuals. Data collected via questionnaires were analyzed using structural
equation modeling with PLS and SPSS software.

Results: Feedback behavior (coefficient = 0.256), leadership styles
(coefficient = 0.543), and the communication mechanism (coefficient =
0.126) significantly influenced employee creativity. Additionally, feedback
behavior (coefficient = 0.267) and leadership styles (coefficient = 0.348)
significantly impacted the communication mechanism. The results also
indicated that the communication mechanism effectively mediated the
relationship between leadership styles (coefficient = 0.044) and feedback
behavior (coefficient = 0.034) on employee creativity growth.

Conclusion: The findings suggest that leadership styles and feedback
behavior significantly influence employee creativity growth through the
mediating role of the communication mechanism. Organizational managers
should leverage these factors to enhance their employees' creativity
