摘要:AbstractEmployees’ commitment, in particular, the academics are crucial to the universities; as their commitment may be directed towards a number of entities, such as the work of teaching and research, to students’ success, to specific programs or the universities as the organization. A low level of commitment tends to demonstrate negative work behaviours. This study examine whether the constructs of leadership behaviour and emotional intelligence could enhance organizational commitment among the academic staff in a higher learning institution. A total of 169 academic staff selected based on stage and cluster sampling participated in this study. The result shows that there is a significant relationship between emotional intelligence and leadership behaviour on organizational commitment.
