Accordingly, drawing upon the investment theory of creativity and intrinsic motivation theory, the principal objective of this research is to assess the intrinsic motivation as a mediator on the relationship between transformational leadership and its dimensions, personality and its dimensions and creativity in Quetta, Balochistan This study utilized a quantitative method, and 239 usable questionaires were gathered from the college teachers of Government colleges in Quetta, Balochistan Partial Least Squares (PLS) was utilized to analyze the data. The results reveal that transformational leadership and its dimensions viz., intellectual stimulation, individualized consideration. idealized influence and inspirational motivation have a significant positive direct relationship with creativity. Likewise, personality, openness to experience and extraversion have a direct positive significant relationship with creativity. Moreover, the relationship of conscientiousness, agreeableness, and neuroticism with college teachers' creativity is not significant.
