Objective - This study aims to analyze prior research on digital maturity and its relationship to creative performance and employee dynamic capabilities, with employee state optimism (ESO) as a mediator. The study develops this framework by synthesizing the main themes and dominant theories found in existing literature.

Methodology - This study conducted a systematic literature review of 23 peer-reviewed articles published in leading journals between 2011 and 2025. This study conducted a systematic literature review on the fragmented literature examining digital maturity effect on creative performance and employee dynamic capabilities, with employee state optimism (ESO) as a mediator.

Findings - The number of related variables publications has increased sharply over the past five years. The findings also show that dynamic capability theory, conservation of resources theory, and positive organizational behavior theory are commonly used to support these studies. It is also found that research on employee state optimism, particularly as a mediating variable, remains limited.
