Particularly, it is a vivid fact that organizational commitment of academic staffs in the tertiary level institutions is interesting and vital because of the great importance they have in creating qualified and educated graduates to the country. This research is then aimed at assessing the relationship between leadership styles (Transformational, Transactional and Laissez-faire) and employees' organizational commitment (Affective, Continuance and Normative commitment) in the case of Debre Birhan University. Respondents were purposively grouped into two (Academic and Administrative) and probability sampling technique called stratified sampling was applied to each stratum and the total sample size of 242 (22 leaders and 220 employees) respondents were considered. Two separate instruments Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire and Organizational Commitment Questionnaire were used to measure leadership styles and employees' organizational commitment respectively. Finally, the responses of the respondents were analyzed using SPSS (version 16.0). The findings of the study revealed that Transformational Leadership style has a moderate, significant positive relationship with affective commitment while weak, but significant positive relationship with both continuance and normative commitment. While Transactional Leadership style has weak, but significant and positive correlation with all dimensions of commitments and Laissez-faire leadership style has extremely low, but insignificant, negative association with all dimensions of commitments. The overall finding of this study suggest that Leadership style do play important roles in determining levels of affective, continuance and normative commitments, especially Transformational and Transactional leadership styles. So, the institution's leaders should improve the level of employees' commitment, especially affective commitment dimension, and retain them through actually practicing effective type of leadership styles and creating conducive environment to employees.

Book Perception of the Effect of Leadership Styles on Organizational Commitment at Tribal Colleges and Universities

Download or read book Perception of the Effect of Leadership Styles on Organizational Commitment at Tribal Colleges and Universities written by Amber M. Mathern and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was conducted to determine if a relationship exists between the perceived leadership style of supervisors and the organizational commitment level of the subordinate employees within Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs). Additionally, the study examined whether a difference exists in the organizational commitment levels of TCU employees based on the different leadership styles (transactional and transformational). A total sample size of 262 employees from seven Tribal Colleges and Universities across the United States was used in the study. Each participant provided information via an online survey. The perceived leadership styles of supervisors across all levels in the TCUs were examined using the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ 360 Form 5X Short) developed by Avolio and Bass (2004). Organizational commitment was measured through the TCM Employee Commitment Survey which is based on the Three-Component Model of Organizational Commitment from Meyer and Allen's (1991) Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (OCQ). The results of the study indicate a statistically significant positive correlation between each of the perceived leadership styles of supervisors and normative and affective commitment of the TCU employees. However, in each case, only transformational leadership significantly predicts normative and affective organizational commitment when all three leadership variables (transformational, transactional, and Laissez-faire) are included in the model. The relationship of transformational leadership to normative and affective organizational commitment is positive. The results indicate a statistically significant negative correlation between the perceived leadership style of the supervisor and continuance commitment of the TCU employees with only transformational leadership significantly predicting continuance organizational commitment in the model. The relationship of transformational leadership to continuance organizational commitment is negative. Multiple regression analyses were also conducted to compare different demographics such as gender, race, and employee position in the TCU. The results of this investigation lead to the recommendation that Tribal College and University supervisors, administrators, and academic researchers should focus on transformational leadership techniques and the continuous sharing of the vision and mission of the respective TCU in order to help foster normative and affective organizational commitment in their employees.
