Abstract This study examined how organizational innovation mediates the relationship between workforce diversity and organizational effectiveness among cooperative employees in Tagum City. A quantitative, non-experimental research design with a descriptive-correlational approach was employed. By applying Slovin’s formula, the minimum number of respondents required was 304. 334 survey questionnaires were distributed through stratified random sampling, including a 10% allowance for possible non-response, yet only 316 were included in the final analysis. Data were analyzed using weighted mean, Pearson product-moment correlation, and Medgraph with the Sobel z-test. The findings showed that both organizational innovation and organizational effectiveness were rated very high, while workforce diversity was rated high. There was a significant relationship between workforce diversity and organizational effectiveness, workforce diversity and organizational innovation, and organizational innovation and organizational effectiveness. Furthermore, the result of Medgraph using the Sobel z-test of organizational innovation on workforce diversity and organizational effectiveness was significant but partial. Nevertheless, workforce diversity enhances organizational innovation by broadening perspectives and fostering a sense of belonging, ultimately boosting organizational effectiveness.
