The study views LoC as both internal and external input to an organization. It examines how transformational leadership (TL) and firm capability (FC) act as processes to integrate these elements, leading to competitive advantage (CA) as the output. Using data from 260 questionnaires, the study conducted a series of analyses, including reliability and validity checks, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and structural equation modelling (SEM). The results indicate that LoC significantly influences TL, FC, and CA. TL and FC have notable effects on a company’s CA, with both factors mediating the relationship between LoC and CA. TL and FC have a sequential mediation effect on the link between LoC and CA. The study also touches on its implications, boundaries, and potential areas for future exploration. ## Keywords - Transformational leadership - Mediation - Structural equation modeling - Confirmatory factor analysis - Reliability (semiconductor) - Control (management) - Competitive advantage - Business - Process (computing) - Knowledge management - Process management - Industrial organization - Psychology - Management - Marketing - Computer science - Social psychology - Economics - Political science - Power (physics) - Law - Machine learning - Quantum mechanics - Physics - Operating system --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
