This study explores the key factors influencing students’ innovative leadership within the unique institutional structure of Chinese higher education. A five-factor model was developed encompassing perceived organizational support, student leadership, and three dimensions of innovation capacity: intrapersonal resilience, social collaboration, and cognitive innovation. The instrument underwent rigorous validation, including expert review, content validity analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and reliability testing. Results confirmed high internal consistency and structural clarity, with the innovation capacity dimensions achieving full expert consensus. The findings emphasize the importance of both external organizational support and internal psychological traits in fostering innovative leadership. In particular, the study highlights the role of emotional and instrumental support in Party-led university structures, where genuine student participation and inclusive leadership development remain limited. By validating a culturally adapted measurement tool, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of how innovation and leadership can be cultivated in Chinese universities, offering practical guidance for institutional reform and theoretical support for future studies.
