摘要：AbstractTeachers’ organizational commitment is a critical aspect in determining the success of education reform and school effectiveness because highly committed teachers are willing to contribute their extra effort to achieve school vision and goals. Thus, it is important to identify the factors that could enhance teachers’ organizational commitment. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of perceived transformational leadership behavior and organizational commitment. 186 secondary school teachers in the district of Klang were selected based on two-stage random sampling. Data were collected using the survey method and were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Based on the data collected, the findings showed that secondary school teachers in the Klang district have high level of organizational commitment and perceive their principals practicing strong transformational leadership behavior. The findings also revealed that there was a positive and strong linear relationship between transformational leadership behavior and organizational commitment. The findings of this study have implications to the role of principal in exercising transformational leadership behavior to ignite teachers’ organizational commitment.
