Respondents in this study were staff-level hotel employees throughout Indonesia, with a total of 143 respondents. Data were analyzed and processed by the PLS-SEM method and path analysis. The bootstrapping method is used to test the hypothesis. This study indicates that transformational leadership has a positive and significant impact on knowledge sharing, transformational leadership has a positive and significant effect on self-efficacy, and transformational leadership has a positive and significant impact on trust in leaders.
