Abstract

Change is an inevitable reality for any organization to thrive in order to successfully adapt to the changes, employees should be willing to cooperate during the change process. The objectives of this study are to investigate the relationship between Leader-Member Exchange (LMX) and employee Affective Commitment to Change (ACC), and how Psychological Empowerment (PE) moderates the aforesaid relationship. To measure this objective data was collected from 132 employees working in various organizations. The results indicate that LMX and PE have significant positive impacts on ACC. Furthermore, PE acting as moderator strengthens the direct influences of LMX on ACC. Based on the findings, theoretical and practical implications, and future research have been discussed.
