Today, due to the global economic developments and the changing business environment caused by rapid technological and globalization developments, companies need internal developments in order to improve their performance and stay in a competitive environment. In the meantime, entrepreneurship development can be a boon for companies as it is a prominent source of value and wealth creation and an important factor in organizational development. Organizational entrepreneurship enables companies to pursue opportunities using the resources they already have or the resources they can create. Therefore, considering the importance of organizational entrepreneurship, researchers examined the impact of various factors on it. In the present study, the effect of ambidexterity leadership and transformational leadership on corporate entrepreneurship was examined considering the moderating role of the behavioral and psychological factors of employees. To investigate relationships, 384 questionnaires were collected from employees of high tech companies in Iran. Structural equation modeling and PLS software were used to investigate the relationships. Based on the results, transformational leadership and ambidexterity leadership affect corporate entrepreneurship and behavioral and psychological factors moderate this relationship.

Keywords : Transformational leadership; ambidextrity leadership; corporate entrepreneurship; behavioral and psychological factors.
