摘要

摘要本研究旨在探讨变革型领导和交易型领导对员工绩效影响的心理机制。基于员工管理理论(EST)和社会交换理论(SET)，选择组织承诺作为完美的调节变量进行研究。这些数据是从加纳公共部门的16个组织中收集的，包括330名全职员工。结果表明，组织承诺对变革型领导有正向调节作用，而对交易型领导没有正向调节作用。我们意识到，当变革型领导水平高时，组织承诺会上升，从而提高员工绩效。另一方面，当交易型领导上升时，组织承诺降低，导致员工绩效下降。因此，交易型领导者应该用变革型领导来增加他们的方法，以提高员工的绩效。本研究提供了相关的现实意义，为领导者提供策略，以影响员工超越极限的表现。

Transformational and Transactional Leadership Styles and Employee Performance in Public Sector Organizations in Africa: A Comprehensive Analysis in Ghana

ABSTRACT The purpose of this research is to investigate the psychological mechanisms that cause the influence of transformational and transactional leadership on employee performance. Based on employee stewardship theory (EST) and social exchange theory (SET), an organizational commitment was selected as a perfect moderating variable to conduct the study. The data were collected from sixteen (16) organizations in the public sector of Ghana, consisting of 330 full-time employees. The results indicate that organizational commitment positively moderates transformational leadership while transactional leadership does not. We realized that when transformational leadership is high, organizational commitment goes up, thereby increasing employee performance. On the other hand, when transactional leadership goes up, organizational commitment decreases, causing employees performance to dwindle. Therefore, transactional leaders should augment their approach with transformational leadership to increase employee performance. This research offers practical implications relevant to provide strategies for leaders to PSOs to influence employees to perform beyond the limit.
