The effects of leadership styles on organizational performance are still arguable due to the inconsistencies. Many researchers analysed the direct and indirect relationships with antecedents' variables of organizational performance. However, organizations sometimes fail to achieve their organizational performance due to their limited understanding of the relationships between leadership styles, knowledge sharing, and innovation that will enhance organizational performance. This study constructs the empowering knowledge sharing interaction capability to mediate between leadership styles and organizational innovativeness. This research deploys 32 digital firms' top management or owners in Indonesia as samples. Data are gathered through online questionnaire of Likert's Scales, and analysed with Smart PLS (partial least squares). The finding of this study of empowering knowledge sharing interaction capability directly enhances organizational innovativeness which in turn significantly improves organizational performance. In line with previous study, leadership styles have a positive impact on empowering knowledge sharing interaction capability, organizational innovativeness and organizational performance.
