 In recent years, how to improve employee innovation and strengthen employee innovation behavior has become a hot topic in the field of management. Through a questionnaire survey of employees, we explore the mechanism of empowering leadership on employees' innovation behavior from an empirical perspective. The results show that: empowering leadership can promote decision-making participation, express high performance confidence, and give autonomy, which has a significant positive impact on employees' innovative behavior, while emphasizing work significance and employees' innovative behavior have no significant effect; Among the four dimensions of empowering leadership, promoting decision-making participation and expressing high performance confidence have significant regression effect on employees' innovation behavior; There is a significant positive relationship between job remodeling and employee innovation behavior, and the positive correlation between job remodeling and employee innovation behavior can be verified; In the mediating effect of empowerment leadership and its dimension variables on employees' innovative behavior, the regression coefficient of empowerment leadership on employees' innovative behavior decreased significantly after job remodeling mediating variables. Job remodeling plays a partial mediating role in the process of expressing high performance confidence and giving autonomy to employees' innovative behavior; Job remolding plays a complete mediating role in promoting the relationship between decision-making participation and employee innovation behavior, Job insecurity has a significant moderating effect on emphasizing work significance, promoting decision-making participation, expressing high performance confidence, giving autonomy and employees' innovative behavior.
