THE INFLUENCE OF LEADERSHIP STYLES AND EMPLOYEE PERSONALITY TRAITS ON WORK-RELATED OUTCOMES

ABSTRACT

The study investigated the influence of transformational and transactional leadership styles and employee personality traits (locus of control and self-efficacy) on work-related outcomes. Work-related outcomes were defined in terms of job satisfaction and organizational commitment. The cross-sectional survey design was employed. A total of 178 employees of First Capital Plus consisting of both males (n=87) and females (n=91) were asked to fill questionnaires that contained Work Locus of Control Scale, Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale, Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire, Organizational Commitment Questionnaire, and Job Satisfaction Scale. The Linear Regression test was employed to analyze the data. The results revealed leadership styles, locus of control, and self-efficacy as significant predictors of both job satisfaction and organizational commitment. In addition, self-efficacy moderated the relationship between transformational leadership and work related outcomes (job satisfaction and organizational commitment). There were no significant gender differences in job satisfaction and organizational commitment. These findings have been discussed with relevant theoretical and empirical references.
