In today's dynamic global economy, businesses confront increasingly intricate domestic and international landscapes. A singular leadership approach is insufficient; companies must enhance staff productivity and creativity to secure market competitiveness. This study utilizes questionnaire surveys, statistical analysis via SPSS25.0, along with reliability, validity, regression, and other methods, involving a large Southwest Chinese services firm with 300 workers and 58 supervisors. The aim is to illuminate the intermediary role played by psychological empowerment and employee silence behaviour in influencing dual leadership and its relationship with employee creativity and productivity, alongside assessing the regulatory impact of environmental uncertainty and leadership prototypes. This research helps elucidate the mechanism underlying dual leadership's effects on workforce effectiveness, providing invaluable theoretical guidance for enhancing staff creativity and productivity.
