| description | The purpose of this study is to investigate the mediating effect of
organizational commitment on leadership style and employee performance
relationships in Malaysian online distance learning higher institutions. To
analyse the causal relationships among organisational commitment,
leadership style and employee performance, the Structural Equation Model
was adopted. The model utilises the Partial Least Square procedure on data
collected from a survey that yielded 206 usable questionnaires. The results
showed that leadership style enhances organisational commitment in
Malaysian online distance learning higher institutions. It also revealed that
organisational commitment mediates the relationship between leadership style
and employee performance. It is vital to do the research utilising experimental
design by using longitudinal data in Malaysian online distance learning higher
institutions via vigorous measures. The findings suggest that the relationship
between leadership style and employee performance may reside in the
influence of organisational commitment on employee performance, and that
organisational commitment plays a crucial role in the Malaysian online
distance learning higher institutions. This research is one of the first known
efforts to use the bootstrapping technique to test the significance of the
mediation effect in Malaysian online distance learning higher institutions. (Abstract by authors) |
