Keywords:
leadership styles, organizational commitment, affective commitment, employee loyalty, belongingnessAbstract
Leadership styles influence organizational commitment through distinct mechanisms for each commitment dimension. Transformational leadership builds affective commitment through inspiration, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration. Transactional leadership contributes to continuance commitment through reward and consequence clarity. Authentic leadership builds normative commitment through moral value internalization and ethical identity formation. Servant leadership strengthens sense of belonging through inclusive climate creation and interpersonal support. Ethical leadership establishes justice underlying all commitment forms. Leadership effects are mediated by perceived organizational support, justice, psychological empowerment, job satisfaction, and leader member exchange quality. Individual differences and organizational culture moderate each leadership style effectiveness. Sustainable long term commitment requires leadership consistency over time and integration of commitment building values into entire organizational systems.
