Abstract
This study was intended to examine the relationship between job resources, employees’ creativity and firm performance of commercial banks in Uganda. It was motivated by the poor performance of some commercial banks in Uganda, the scantiness of studies about the link between job resources, employees ’ creativity and firm performance of commercial banks in Uganda as well as calls from previous scholars for more research. A quantitative and cross sectional research designs were employed for this study. Data were collected using self-administered questionnaires from commercial banks. We performed a Pearson correlation and multiple regressions when analyzing data. The study posts a positive relationship between Job resources, Employee Creativity and Firm performance in Uganda. Findings show that 29 % of the change in commercial bank’s performance is explained by job resources and employee creativity. The study focuses on job resources and employee creativity, concepts that are not very well appreciated and only understood as humanitarian and not actually viewed as a means to improve commercial bank’s performance in Uganda. The significance of this paper is to contribute to the scarcity of literature on the Ugandan experience concerning Job resources, Employee creativity and Firm performance.
