Abstract

The study examined the extent to which organisational climate, job satisfaction, and leadership styles influences organisational commitment among South African soldiers. Study participants were 150 military personnel (41% females, 32% privates, 35% Non-Commissioned Officers (NCOs), age range 24 to 64). Participants completed measures of organisational climate, job satisfaction, leadership styles, and organisational commitment. Data were descriptively summarised and with multiple regression analysis utilised to predict organisational commitment from job satisfaction, leadership styles, and organisational climate. The results revealed a positive significant relationship between organisational climate, job satisfaction, and organisational commitment. Moderate positive correlations were observed between laissez-faire, transformational, and transactional leadership styles and organisational commitment. Results from multiple regression found organisational climate to be the only predictor of organisational commitment and not job satisfaction.
