Perceived Leadership Style, Job Satisfaction, and Affective Commitment among Employees in Higher Education Institution

This study examined the relationship between the perceived leadership styles of administrators, job satisfaction, and affective commitment among employees of higher education institutions (HEIs) in District I of Negros Occidental. Using a descriptive-comparative design, the study collected data from 221 respondents representing both private and state HEIs. The findings revealed that the dominant leadership style among administrators was laissez-faire. Employees demonstrated high levels of job satisfaction and affective commitment, indicating strong emotional attachment and loyalty to their institutions. Statistical analyses showed significant correlations between leadership style, job satisfaction, and affective commitment. These findings provide insights for academic administrators to enhance leadership practices and strengthen employee engagement and institutional performance.
