Dari hasil penelitian didapat bahwaTransformational Leadership memiliki pengaruh yang lebih besar terhadap Team Innovation dibandingkan Team Climate dengan nilai Beta dan Sig sebesar 0,673 dan 0,000 untuk variabel Transformational Leadership serta 0,207 dan 0.067 untuk variabel Team Climate. Melalui peninjauan lebih dalam, diketahui bahwa dimensi dari variabel Transformational Leadership yang paling rendah adalah Inspirational motivation dan Intellectual Stimulation.

ABSTRACT
This study aims to develop an intervention to overcome the problems of the poorly executed Team Innovation In PT UT, as part of a continuous improvement efforts inachieving the company's vision-to be a 'solution driven company'. This study was conducted with a quantitative approach with data collection techniques usingquestionnaires filled by 72 employees at the level of department heads of UT branches& jobsites. The questionnaire was developed based on Team Innovation(Jackson, 1995), Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (Avolio & Bass, 2004), andTeam Climate (Anderson & West, 1998). The questionnaire has been through a modification process then tested and analyzed to the result that the items are entirelyvalid. As shown from the results that transformational leadership had greater influence on Team Innovation than Team Climate with the value of Sig and Beta of 0.673 & 0.000 for the Transformational Leadership and 0.207 & 0.067 for Team Climate. Through a deeper review, it was known that from the dimensions of Transformational Leadership, Intellectual Stimulation and Inspirational Motivation had the least score. These results indicate that most of employees of PT UT located in branches and jobsites were not well motivated by their leaders as well as having a lack of guidance in terms of stimulating the creative mindset in solving problems.Therefore, intervention programs were designed and recommended to improve the ability of the Branch and Jobsites Managers to rise the motivation of theirsubordinates and to provide guidance in the process of creative thinking for problem solving. The intervention that was recommended to PT UT was an act of facilitatingQCC teams in making an improvement project at branch and jobsite level, by previously giving a series of training to Branch & Jobsite Managers as a debriefing training for facilitation process.;This study aims to develop an intervention to overcome the problems of the poorly executed Team Innovation In PT UT, as part of a continuous improvement efforts inachieving the company's vision-to be a 'solution driven company'.
