标题:A study on the effect of transformational leadership on job satisfaction: The role of gender, perceived organizational politics and perceived organizational commitment
摘要:This study aims at improving the understandings of the relationship between transformational leadership
style and employee job satisfaction, considering the gender as the moderator and perceived
organizational politics and perceived organizational commitment as mediators among the banking
sector employees in North Cyprus. The data were collected through a self-completed questionnaire
which was distributed randomly to bank employees in five districts of North Cyprus in 2018. A
total of 400 questionnaires were returned and utilized to conduct regression analysis which suggested
a positive relationship between transformational leadership and employee satisfaction. The
findings also indicated that the perceived organizational politics and organizational commitment
did play a mediating role on the relationship between transformational leadership style and employee
satisfaction. Perception of organizational politics and perceived organizational commitment
have an impact of the overall employees’ satisfaction. As suggested by our finding, female and
male leaders adopt transformational leadership skills in different ways causing various effects on
the level of satisfaction of their employees.
