of its workforce. Workforce commitment is been considered as a major factor in
determining the organizational performance and effectiveness. Among various
determinants, leadership style of leader has been established as one of the most
determinant of employees’ organizational commitment. It is therefore concluded that

Write a response in 300 words. To my peers’ topic below.
RESPOND TO THESE QUESTIONS
1. Though many leadership theories have been proposed and implemented in the last twenty years, have these theories really reshaped organizational behavior (OB) in such a way that employees are excited and ready to help the organization achieve its goals and objectives?
2. Are there newer theories beyond servant leadership, stewardship, or transformational leadership that might reframe employees and even OB? Were theories proposed more than twenty years ago perhaps too futuristic at the time?
3. Power and politics have often been touted as influencing, even shaping, organizational behavior. Discuss how leadership might be used (the style, approach, and essentials) so that power and coercion do not shape employee behavior negatively.
4. How can you reframe employees’ feelings about offshoring jobs to restore trust in leader/managers?

· Make sure your writing is clear, concise, and organized; demonstrates ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and displays accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
Collins, L_M4_A1Twenty-First-Century Change Challenges
Implications and Servant Leadership and Transformational Leadership: Power/Coercion employees (followers). The word follower will be used intermittently throughout this discussion because it is a familiar term in the religious circles. It means the same as employee. The title Servant Leadership and Transformational Leadership has been promoted as the optimal paradigm for employees especially in various work environments. Those leaders or managers who are given this title have in some ways utilized the power of the position to influence and reshape organizational behavior to maintain productivity. Sometimes this reshaping has reframed employee feelings about the organization and affects the level of trust in that organization. The title “transformational leader” or “servant leader” has been ascribed to some of the world’s best (worst) leaders: Jesus Christ, Gandhi, Genghis Khan, Mao, and even Hitler. Interesting enough, the embattled social network guru Mark Zuckerberg has been called a transformational leader. What seems to bind the mentioned formidable and familiar individuals I mentioned above is their ability to inspire and mobilize followers (employees) by motivating them to transcend self-interest and achieve higher-order needs. The global impact of the leadership theory and how it impacts employee or a follower’s response to organizational behavior is increasingly hard to escape. Individuals can benefit from cross-cultural research on the topic for example, the Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness (GLOBE) research program studied implicit leadership theories in 62 cultures across the world. Their findings discovered that attributes of tran.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

and laissez-faire) and employee commitment (affective, continuance, and normative commitment) within an
organization in Nigeria. Total participants within the research were 80 employees. Two separate instruments,
namely multifactor leadership questionnaire (MLQ) and organizational commitment questionnaire (OCQ), were
utilized to determine leadership styles and employees’ commitment respectively. The findings from the study
revealed that transformational leadership style is the most common leadership style utilized by the managers
within the organization also it was revealed in the findings that there's a substantial relationship between
leadership styles and employees' job commitment within the organization in Nigeria.
Keywords: leadership style, job commitment, transformational leadership, transactional leadership, laissez-faire

Introduction
Leadership is a very critical factor in the formulation, pursuance, attainment and sustenance of collective
endeavor. The success or failure of formal organizations, nations and other social units has been largely
attributed to the nature of their leadership style, (oladipo, et al 2013). The leadership role is a necessity in any
organization, in order to co-ordinate the activities and aspirations of a given group, the head plays the role of a
leader in any organization, leadership cannot be separated from a group and there cannot be a group without a
leader, (oladipo, et al 2013). This is as a result of interdependence of both concepts for organisational
effectiveness. The term leadership connotes a different meaning to different people. Many have attempted
several definitions of the term leadership, no one definition has been universally accepted as an authoritative
explanation of leadership. The exercise of influence in a social situation can be defined as leadership. A leader
may be defined as an individual with an ability to induce subordinates to work towards the group goal with
confidence. A special type of influence activity that affects and enhances individual in an organisation is being
seen in all kinds of social situation, which is especially apparent demand that makes people work together
towards the attainment of common aims, goals and objectives, is called leadership,(oladipo,et al 2013).
Based on Ngambi et al. (2010) and Ngambi (2011), reported in Jeremy et al. (2011), leadership is really a
procedure for impacting on others commitment towards recognizing their full potential in achieving value-added,
shared vision, with passion and integrity. The nature of the influence is that the people from the team cooperate
under their own accord with one another to be able to attain the objectives of the leader as well as another group
of the organization. The associations between leader and worker, gives additional to the standard of employees’
satisfaction, which are considerably affected through the leadership style adopted by the leader (Jeremy et al.,
2011).
Leadership style within an organization is among the factors that play significant role in improving or slowing
the interest and commitment from the people within the organization (Obiwuru et al., 2011). The term employee
commitment is mainly defined as a mental condition that binds the person towards the organization (Jeremy et
al, 2011). In many of the organizations, there is an increasing commitment gap - a widening split between the
anticipation of companies and what employees are ready to do. There are numerous causes of this erosion of
worker commitment, the most typical one as being a failure of management in some manner or other. To be
effective, the skills of committed employee managing must be fixed in a business so they develop portions of its
views.
Thus, businesses need skilled, competent and committed employees as an effective team member to succeed.
Failure to ensure this by managers or supervisors can lead to the forfeiture of cherished workers who place a
premium on the success of the organization. Employee behavior on the job is influenced by his or her direct

manager. Confident inspirations are vital to solidification worker commitment. Consequently, the major stage in
building commitment is to increase the value of management (Meyer et al., 2004). What is now apparent is that
worker commitment will be mainly prejudiced by the relations that arise among contemporaries and with their
direct and older directors. Commitment is compound and incessant, and needs employers or managers to notice
ways of improving the work life of their workers (Meyer et al., 2004; Avolio et al. 2004). Thus, the success or
failure of the organization basically depends on the leadership styles of that organization, (oladipo, et al, 2013)
and the commitment of capable workers is critical to the success of the business.
Objective of the study
1) Determine the level of job commitment among employees in the organization based on their managers'
leadership styles.
2) Determine the leadership styles commonly practiced by the managers in the organization.
3) To examine the relationship between leadership styles and employee commitment to the organization.
Literature review
Leadership styles
A leader can be defined as a person who delegates or influencing others to act so as to accomplish specified
objectives (Mullins, 2004) whereas leadership styles refer to leaders preferred manner of tackling tasks and
personnel issues in delivering the goals set for their groups or team. The types of leadership styles use by any
management have great influence on employees’ job commitment. It was a general believe that, traits like height,
integrity, head shape, body builds determine a good and effective leader. The theory that says leaders are born
has been rebuffed for quite a long time. Traits that are physical appearance cannot explain leadership. Nowadays
what determine good leaders and effective leaders dwell on what the leaders does, their behaviors towards set
goals and their ability to cope with situations at hand (Mullins, 2004).
One of the major factors that have an impact on the performance of an organization, employees and
managers is leadership styles (Oladipo, et al, 2013). Effective leadership styles were attempted to be defined by
early theorist (democratic or autocratic, socially oriented or target oriented) and relate all of them with various
facets of the business outcomes. More lately, transactional and transformational leadership styles happen to be the
scientists focused because of the subordinates’ perspective and facets of leadership e.g., (Bass, 1985; Burns, 1978).
Here is a brief study of some common leadership styles as well as their potential effects on an organization in
addition to their relative effectiveness.
Transformational leadership styles
Transformational leadership style concentrates on the development of followers as well as their needs.
Managers with transformational leadership style concentrate on the growth and development of value system of
employees, their inspirational level and moralities with the introduction of their abilities (Ismail et al., 2009).
Transformational leadership functions like a bridge between leaders and followers to build up obvious
knowledge of follower’s interests, values and inspirational level. It essentially helps follower’s achieve their set
goals employed in the business setting. Transformational leaders are positive: they aim to optimize individual,
group and business development and innovation, not only achieve performance "in anticipation". They convince
their affiliates to shoot for greater amounts of potential in addition to greater amounts of moral and ethical
standards. Transformational leadership doesn't replace transactional leadership, but augments it in experiencing
this goals from the group (Hall et al., 2002). Transformational leadership fosters capacity development and
brings greater amounts of personal commitment among ‘followers’ to business objectives. Based on Bass &
Avolio (1993) transformational leadership happens when leaders broaden and elevate the interests of the
employees, once they generate awareness and acceptance for the purpose and mission of the group, so when
they stir employees to appear beyond their very own self-interest for the good of the group. Together, increased
capacity and commitment are held to guide to additional effort and greater productivity (Mannheim & Halamish,
2008). Based on Bass (1997), the aim of transformational leadership would be to ‘transform’ people and
organizations inside a literal sense - to alter them in the mind and heart enlarge vision, insight, and understanding
clarify reasons make behavior congruent with values, concepts, and brings about changes which are permanent,
self-perpetuating, and momentum building.
Transactional leadership style
The wheeler-sellers of leadership styles, transactional leaders will always be willing to provide you
with something in exchange for following them. It may be a variety of things together with a good performance
review, an increase, a campaign, new duties or perhaps a preferred alternation in responsibilities. The issue with
transactional leaders is anticipation. Transactional leadership style is understood to be the exchange of rewards

and targets between employees and management (Howell & Avolio, 1993). Transactional leaders fulfill worker
needs of rewards when targets are met (Humphreys, 2002). Pounder (2002) defines this style because the
transaction of needs fulfillment from each side of the organization and employees. Transactional leadership
relies more about "trades" between the leader and follower, by which followers are compensated for meeting
specific goals or performance criteria (Trottier et al., 2008 Bass et al., 2003). Rewards and positive
reinforcement are supplied or mediated through the leader. Thus transactional leadership is much more practical
in character due to its focus on meeting specific targets or objectives (James & Collins, 2008). A highly effective
transactional leader has the capacity to recognize and reward followers' achievements in a timely way. However,
subordinates of transactional leaders aren't always likely to think innovatively and might be supervised based on
predetermined criteria. Poor transactional leaders might be less likely to anticipate problems and also to
intervene before problems arrived at the forefront, whereas more efficient transactional leaders take appropriate
action on time (Bass et al., 2003).
Laissez-Faire leadership
Both transformational and transactional leaders are referred to as leaders who positively intervene and then
try to prevent problems, even though they use different approaches. When searching for both of these active
types of leadership, you find that they're frequently compared using the third type of leadership, known as
laissez-faire leadership (Buciuniene & Škudiene, 2008). James & Collins (2008) describe the laissez-faire leader
being an extreme passive leader who's unwilling to influence subordinates’ considerable freedom, to the stage of
handing over his/her duties. In this way, this very passive kind of leadership signifies the lack of leadership.
Researchers have consistently reported that laissez-faire leadership may be the least satisfying and least effective
type of leadership. That's since these leadership actions are supported by the little feeling of accomplishment,
little clearer, little feeling of group oneness, and folowers don't hold just as much respect for his or her
administrators (Trottier et al., 2008). It's most likely therefore that lots of researchers decide to exclude laissez-
faire leadership in their research include only transformational and transactional leadership.
Employee commitment
Employees commitment continues to be analyzed within the public, private, and non-profit sector, and
much more lately worldwide. Early research centered on determining the idea whereas current research is
constantly on the examine business commitment through two popular approaches, commitment-related attitudes
and commitment-related actions. A number of antecedents and final results happen to be recognized previously
three decades (Search & Morgan, 1994). In addition, Batemen and Strasser (1984) [as reported in Lok &
Crawford, 1999] condition the causes of studying business commitment are based on “employee actions and
gratifaction effectiveness attitudinal, affective, and cognitive constructs for example job satisfaction qualities
from the employee’s job and role for example responsibility personal qualities from the worker for example age,
job tenure.” When searching at worker commitment in an organization, it's the relative strength of the
individual's identification with and participation in a particular organization. With regards to this, Allen & Meyer
(1990) define employees commitment as a mental condition that characterizes the employee's relationship with
in the organization and it has implications for the choice to continue employment with the organization.
Similarly, Meyer & Becker (2004) define a committed employess to be one “stays by having an organization,
attends work regularly, puts inside a full day and much more, safeguards corporate assets, and thinks within the
business goals”. This employees positively adds towards the organization due to its commitment for the
business. Meyer & Becker, (2004] define a committed worker to be one that “stays with an organization,
attends work regularly, puts in a full day and more, safeguards corporate assets, and thinks within the
organizational goals”. This worker positively adds towards the organization due to its commitment for the
business. Studies have shown that people and organizations are negatively affected when commitment is low, but
both benefit when commitment is high (Meyer & Becker,2004). Business commitment is connected with
elevated satisfaction, performance, and business adaptability (Meyer & Becker, 2004), in addition to decreased
absenteeism and worker turnover (Lo et al., 2010).
The Relationship between Leadership Styles and Employee Commitment
Relationships between commitment and leadership style continues to be reported within the business and
management literatures. Several studies found an optimistic relationship between the two variables. For example,
Lo et al. (2010) came to the conclusion that leadership styles of administrators are essential dimension of the
social context simply because they shape subordinates’ business commitment in a variety of important ways.
Likewise, Ponnu & Tennakoon (2009) indicate that ethical leadership behavior has an optimistic effect on
worker business commitment and worker rely upon leaders. However, the research results around the
relationship among leadership style, business culture and worker commitment in college libraries by Awan &
Mahmood (2009) reveal that the leadership style (within their situation, autocratic or laissez-faire) doesn't have

impact on the commitment of employees in college libraries. Rather, the majority of the library professionals
appeared to become highly committed using their organizations i.e., they preferred result-oriented culture.
Similarly, Lok & Crawford (1999) reported the leadership style variable, a bureaucratic atmosphere, frequently
led to a lesser degree of worker commitment and gratifaction, whereas Search and Liesbscher (1973) [as reported
in Buciuniene & Škudiene, 2008] discovered an adverse relationship between both of these variables.
In another study including 156 participants, Lo et al. (2009) examined leadership styles and employees’
business commitment in Malaysia manufacturing industry to guarantee the effective control over employees and
also to improve productivity and accomplishments of the organization. They learned that several dimension of
transactional and transformational have positive relationship with business commitment however the impacts are
more powerful for transactional leadership style. Similarly, Marmaya et al. (2011) looked into the employees’
awareness of leadership style among Malaysian managers and it is effect on business commitment after which
discovered that leadership tends to be more transformational than transactional. The research by Buciuniene and
Škudiene (2008) has looked into the relationship between employees’ business commitment dimensions and
leadership styles and located positive relationship between transformational leadership style and affective and
normative worker obligations whereas a laissez-faire leadership style was discovered to be adversely connected
with employees’ affective commitment. Davenport (2010) also measured the relationship between leadership
style and business commitment as moderated by the follower’s locus of control and reported that suggests that
separately leader style and locus of control are important drivers of organizational commitment.
Methodology
Research sample and data collection
The study covered ten(10) randomly selected organization in Lagos metropolis, Lagos state, Nigeria. A
closed-ended questionnaire was used in gathering relevant data from the employees in the said organization. 80
questionnaires were filled and returned by the respondents
Data Gathering Instruments
For the purpose of this study a quantitative methodology involving a close-ended questionnaire was used as the
measuring instrument. The close-ended questionnaires was administered to the employees simultaneously, since
they are less costly and less time consuming than other measuring instruments. Two separate instruments,
namely multifactor Leadership questionnaire (MLQ) by Bass & Avolio (1995) [as cited in Bass et al., 2003],
presented the MLQ Form 5X with nine subscales of leadership styles. and organizational commitment
questionnaire (OCQ), developed by Porter et al. (1974) [as cited in Lo et al., 2010], were used in this study to
obtain quantitative information on leadership styles and employees’ organizational commitment respectively.
In respect to measuring the reliability of the scale, the reliability coefficients (Cronbach’s) of the transactional
leadership, the transformational leadership, and the Laissez-Faire leadership were 0.850, 0.792 and 0.800
respectively. Organizational commitment questionnaire was used to assess respondents’ level of their job
commitment. The questionnaire was subjected to item analysis in order to ensure it is valid and reliable and it
yielded reliability alpha of .806.
Results

Discussion
The foregoing shows the analysis of data collected for this study. It was found that the transformational
leadership style was the common style of leadership used my the mangers in the organization. The findings was
consisted with the findings of the earlier researchers, Oladipo et al,(2013) and Marmaya et al. (2011).
The findings of this study also indicate a moderate level of employee job commitment in the organization, it
shows that those employees have not been committed totally to their job. It shows that the level of commitment
was moderate. The findings were in consonance with the findings made in previous studies of (Knosrow,2012).
The findings of this study indicating significant relationship relationship between leadership styles and job
commitment of the employees, show that in some certain situation, the more effective a leader is the more
effective the subordinates. This implies that many employees needs to be coarse by the manager before they
could improve on their job commitment. This finding was in support with other researchers which finds that
there is a significant relationship between leadership styles and job commitment (Lo et al. (2010) and Bučiūnienė
and Škudienė (2008)
Conclusion
In line with the findings of the study, it has come to the conclusion that managers' leadership styles is really a
critical variable in the employee job commitment within the organization in Nigeria. This apparent within the
findings of the study, which isolated the style of leadership utilized by the manager as a function of employee
job commitment within the organization. The significant relationship present in this research between leadership
style and employees job commitment is value added. In certain situations, people have to be forced before they
can improve in productivity.
The findings of the study have therefore brought the researchers to summarize that transformational
leadership style is the greatest type of leadership that improves better worker job commitment within the
organization.
