The relationship between leadership styles and employee commitment at the Nuclear Energy Corporation of South Africa

M.Tech. Business Administration. Business School. / The South African Nuclear Energy Corporation is a public company and a parastatal responsible for undertaking and promoting research and development in the field of nuclear energy and radiation sciences. Overall, South African organisations face the urgent challenge of attaining competitive advantage through the effective utilisation and retention of skilled employees who contribute to the basis of their success. A major motivation for this study derives from the urgent challenge of attaining competitive advantage through the effective utilisation and retention of skilled knowledge workers in a multi-cultural South Africa. The influence of leadership style to employee commitment to the organisation has not been adequately addressed in the nuclear industry. A need therefore exists for greater understanding of the relationship between the leadership style and work-related attitudes (such as employee commitment) in order to develop a leadership style that will encourage organisational commitment. This study examines the relationship between leadership style, and employee commitment.
