The purpose of this study was to explain teachers' job innovation based on transformational leadership components in elementary schools of East Azerbaijan province. The research method was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population includes all the elementary school teachers in East Azarbaijan province with 14004 (9633 female and 4371 male). Using Morgan table, 375 teachers (257 females and 118 males) were selected through stratified random sampling. Measurement tools were Martin Patchen's Job Innovation Questionnaire (1965) and Bass & Aliev's (1997) Transformational Leadership Questionnaire. Face and content validity were used to assess the validity of the tool and Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used to measure the reliability of the questionnaires, which was 0.94 for job innovation and 0.79 for transformational leadership. The results of correlation test showed that there is a significant relationship between transformational leadership of principals and its components and teachers' job innovation. But the results of Structural Equation Modeling to explain teachers ' job innovation based on their transformational leadership components showed that only idealistic features with a coefficient of 0.82 are able to predict teachers' job innovation significantly, and and inspirational motivation, subjective motivation, and individual considerations are not able to predict teachers' job innovation.
