Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to extend the under-researched work on employees’ organizational commitment by examining transformational leadership (TL) adopted by the leader and the level of trust subordinates have in such a leader.
Design/methodology/approach
Data were collected using convenience sampling and self-administered survey methods from professionals employed in Indian public sector banks (n=236).
Findings
Findings reveal that the subordinates’ level of trust and psychological well-being partially mediates the relationship between TL and employees’ organizational commitment.
Practical implications
TL shares a positive relationship with organizational commitment through trust and psychological well-being.
Originality/value
Even though previous studies on organizational commitment have produced a significant piece of work, this study is among the first to propose and analyze a comprehensive and theoretically grounded structure of TL, organizational commitment, level of trust and employees’ psychological well-being.
Purpose
This study aims to investigate the mediating role of job autonomy ( JA) in the relationship between transformational leadership (TL) and organizational commitment (OC) and the moderating effect of emotional intelligence (EI) on the relationship between JA and OC.
Design/methodology/approach
Data for the study were obtained from the respondents of information technology industries across India by using convenience sampling.
Findings
The study reveals that TL positively influences employees’ OC via JA. Results further indicated that EI as the moderator strengthens the relationship between TL and OC mediated by JA.
Practical implications
The study recommends that leaders with high level of TL style should appeal to the emotions of their employees for significantly influencing their OC.
Originality/value
This paper extends upon prior research that has identified a relationship between TL and OC; this study proposes and analyzes a comprehensive and theoretically grounded structure of TL, JA, EI and employees’ OC, highlighting its theoretical and practical implications.

Further, employee job behaviour was found to be significantly impacting job satisfaction of employees in the backdrop of work from home.
