The banking system in Libya has been facing various challenges due to the political ‎instability and divided governance in the country. This situation has created unique ‎features for the financial sector in Libya. This study aims to explore the relationship ‎between transformational leadership styles, namely idealized influence, inspirational ‎motivation, intellectual stimulation, individualized consideration with mediating role of ‎organizational commitment and employee performance in the public banks sector in ‎Libya. To achieve these objectives, quantitative research method was utilized by ‎developing questionnaire survey and distributing 411 copies to the employees working ‎for five public banks that have operating branches in Tripoli. The data was analysed ‎using SPSS and Smart PLS. The results showed significant relationship between ‎idealized influences, inspirational motivation, and organizational commitment and ‎employee performance in the Libyan public banks which support what was found in the ‎majority of the previous published literature. But unlike the majority of the published ‎literature, intellectual stimulation and individualized consideration was found to be ‎insignificant with employee performance in the Libyan public banks. in addition, the ‎organizational commitment has a significant relationship with employee performance. ‎Finally, organizational commitment showed a significant mediating effect on the ‎relationship between idealized influence, inspirational motivation, and intellectual ‎stimulation with employee performance. however, organizational commitment showed ‎insignificant mediating effect on the relationship between individualized consideration ‎and employee performance.‎

Leadership and followers' performance has always attracted organizational scholars' attention. Leadership is considered as one of the important factor, responsible for organizational and team's performance. Earlier studies mostly conducted in US and European countries and have mentioned a positive association between leadership and employees' job performance. Few authors have reported negative linkage between transactional leadership style and employees' performance. Most of these studies were conducted in public organizations. Here, we conducted this study in Pakistani work context to check the leadership effects on subordinates' task performance and organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs). We also checked the possible mechanism involved in this leader-follower relationship. Some authors have checked organizational politics and organizational justice as possible underpinning mechanism, while we tested employees' self- and collective efficacy as one of the possible mechanism. Our direct hypothesized relationships were between two leadership styles (transactional and transformational) and employees' task performance, OCBs, self- and collective efficacy. Our results were partially similar to previous studies while partially different for direct relationships. Both transactional and transformational were found positively related to employees' task performance, OCBs, self- and collective efficacy. Transactional leadership was a stronger predictor of employees' task performance while transformational leadership proved a stronger predictor of employees' OCBs. Both employees' self- and collective efficacy proved to be mediators between both leadership styles (transactional and transformational) and employees' task performance and organizational citizenship behaviors. Self-efficacy proved a stronger mediator between transactional leadership and employees' task performance while collective efficacy was stronger mediator between transformational leadership and employees' OCBs.

In the present thesis a theoretical and empirical study of the relationship between transformational leadership (TL) styles and organizational commitment (OC) is performed. These two concepts are examined as multidimensional constructs and are empirically tested within a French speaking population. The main objective of this study is to examine the mechanisms through which dimensions of TL influence different forms of OC by testing the possible mediating role of leader member exchange (LMX). The present thesis consists of six chapters and a brief summary of each one is given below: The first chapter is introductory in nature. It introduces the concepts of TL, OC and LMX and the motivation for this research. It provides a brief summary of previous scientific work on the topic and it outlines the purpose and specific objectives of each chapter. In the second chapter, a study and discussion of the relationship between leadership styles and OC dimensions is carried out. An extensive literature research is performed in order to understand leadership and OC as well as the relationship between these two concepts. Although there is considerable research which suggest that TL is positively associated with OC in a variety of organizational settings and cultures, there is little empirical research focusing on the precise ways in which style of leadership impacts employee OC. Some critics about previous empirical and theoretical studies are presented and a number of areas for future research are developed. In the third chapter, the English TL questionnaire (TLQ) (Rafferty and Griffin, 2004) is translated into French using a back-translation technique. The validity and reliability of this instrument within two samples of French speaking populations is tested (Tunisia and France). Internal consistency is assessed using Cronbach alpha coefficient. The construct validity is verified using the exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. The results support a four-factor model of TLQ which consists of vision, supportive leadership, intellectual stimulation and personal recognition.These findings have shown adequate psychometric properties and have provided preliminary support for the construct validity of the proposed French version of the TLQ. In the fourth chapter, the English OC questionnaire (OCQ) (Meyer et al, 1993; Powell and Meyer, 2004) is translated into French and the validity and reliability of this instrument within the two samples of French speaking population is tested. The results have supported a 4-factor model of OCQ of the original questionnaire. These findings have shown adequate psychometric properties and have provided preliminary support for the construct validity of the proposed French version of the OCQ. In the fifth chapter, some models that take into account the diverse dimensions of TL and the different forms of OC are proposed and tested by examining the role of LMX as a mediator between them. To verify the models, two types of validity tests are considered: the convergent validity and the discriminant validity. To test the direct hypothesis, Pearson's correlation and Betas in structural model are used. To test the mediation hypothesis, two methods are used: Baron and Kenny method and a nested model method. The results revealed that the proposed models are confirmed. These findings are important since previous research did not test these variables together. Finally, the last chapter summarizes the contribution of this thesis. The possible directions of further research work are also discussed in brief.

Over the recent years, substantial evidences of the impact of leaders' unprofessional behavior and ethical lapses have been documented. These types of failures include the destruction of some of the world's largest companies and the resultant loss in hundreds of billions of dollars in shareholder values. Creating a healthy and trustful work environment is crucial due to the plethora of overwhelming business scandals across the world. Leaders play a pivotal role in shaping such a conducive, trustworthy, and engaged work atmosphere. Little empirical evidence exists; however, about authentic leadership behavior and its subsequent impact on work behavior like trust and work engagement. To fill this gap, the present research examined these issues in the banking sector in Malaysia. Specifically, it investigated the relationships among leadership styles (authentic, transformational and transactional), interpersonal and institutional trust, and employee work engagement. Furthermore, the study examined the mediating effect of organizational trust in the role of perceived leadership styles of supervisors and employees' work engagement. Sample consisted of 395 employees recruited from four major banks (two Islamic and two conventional). Data were collected with the help of standardized tools. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and other relevant statistical methods were used to analyze the data. As predicted, structural path diagrams showed that authentic leaders were perceived to be more trustful that contributed to employees' work engagement. The empirical test indicated that organizational trust played a significant mediating role between leadership styles and employees' work engagement. Although the study did not find certain direct paths as significant, the indirect paths or mediating roles were significant in the linkages of authentic and transformational leaderships with interpersonal and institutional trust as well as between these two trusts and work engagement. The model comparison and independent sample t-test further indicated that leaders in Islamic banks were perceived to be more authentic and trustworthy; subsequently, the employees were also more engaged in their job than their conventional counterparts. Finally, many alternative models were examined, and recommendations were made. Overall, this study is important because it helps to explain the overwhelming impact of authentic leadership factors on employees' work engagement, particularly, in generating a trusting relationship with the employees, which intermediates the relationship between authentic leadership style and components of work engagement. The finding should add to the leadership literature.

Leadership has remained a prominent area of interest for both academics and practitioners for several decades. This interest is based on the notion that leadership styles correlate with organisational performance. In these modern times, when there are increased complexities surrounding the needs of society and increased competitiveness among organisations and nations, achieving high outputs and performance is even more critical. The role of leaders in assuring this high organisational performance is noted in the literature. Leadership is a process in which people are influenced to work towards organisational goals. It involves the ability to motivate people as well as building the capacity of followers to be able to achieve organisational goals. As noted by Akparep, Jengre, and Mogre, the leadership style adopted by an organisation impacts on operational success. Leaders influence the behaviour of workers through processes such as training, rewards, communication, and discipline.
