Despite the enormous number of researches of the transformational leadership and organizational innovation in developed nations, there are a few researches in the Arab world especially the Republic of Yemen. This study examines the relationship between transformational leadership and organizational innovation in higher education in Yemen, with organizational culture as a mediator. Transformational leadership has been termed as the most appropriate style of leadership which, when practiced, not only enhances employee morale and motivation, but also leads to enhanced organizational innovativeness. Organizational innovation is a well-researched area. For organizations, innovation is one of the most important factors contributing to competitiveness and differentiation. A quantitative approach was mainly conducted in this study. In order to achieve the main objectives of this study, data were collected from managerial employees from Sana'a University participated in this research in Yemen. Out of the 350 samples, 330 responses (94.29 % response rate) were collected based on random sampling; eventually, 279 responses were usable.
