“…The result supports the research by Ying, Zaman and Ahmad and Yiing [13] who derived at the findings of leadership style as one of the critical factors that influence organizational commitment.

“…Where else Robbins &Judge [46] defines commitment as a situation where an individual is an impartial organization as well as the objectives and the desire to maintain its position in the organization. In a more recent study on organizational commitment, Putriana [47] found that organizational commitment are important determinants of job performance. Interestingly, Solinger et al [48] argued that the three-component model of organizational commitment stated by Meyer & Allen [44], which has been the dominant model in organizational commitment research, is inconsistent as it combines different attitudinal phenomena with different relationships for focal and non-focal behaviours.…”

The military organizational culture is a predominant force. Its influence instills, molds, governs, and propagates beliefs, mindsets, attitudes, and behaviours, both individually and collectively [1]. It establishes and perpetuates a shared frame of reference and shared reality encompassing all aspects of the military way of life and soldiers' professional and personal lives. Much has been written on military job performance [1-3], particularly on the issues and challenges which are affecting soldiers' performance. But what is performance in the context of military? Commanders must understand true performance from their soldiers so that they are prepared in all situations especially in combat needs. Industrial-organizational psychologists have studied "performance" and their research ascertained that performance is "something that people actually do and can be observed which include only those actions or behaviours that are relevant to the organization's goals" [4]. Borman & Motowildo [5] further distinguished the perception of performance to comprise of task performance and contextual performance which are both significant for organizational efficiency and effectiveness. Performance is commonly classified as maximum and typical performance [6]. The importance of job performance in the military requires soldiers to be combat prepared as an individual and towards collective approach working together in teams that enable them to survive and sustain in war zone areas. For improved job performance, proper structured training with current doctrines and concepts have to be planned and implemented. Job performance requires the full complement of equipment, infrastructure , processes, skills, and job levels that are assigned to an organization to increase their overall organization performances. Performance of employees affects the growth of the organization. Thus, there is a need of identifying employee's individual job performance. The right leadership style is a fundamental indicator of the organization's performance because the right leadership influences employees' attitude and behaviour. The right attitude of employees is shown though their organization commitment that has an impact on job performance [7]. Empirical findings of research studies specified that organizational performance, job performance and employee commitment are outcomes greatly preferred by corporate leadership and management [8-9]. With the increasing competitive global environment many researchers have agreed that leaders and managers in all organizations could provide assistance in motivating and guide their employees with effective leadership style specifically transformational or transactional leadership [8-11]. BACKGROUND OF STUDY: In the military, job performance is dependent on the soldier's ability to go beyond what is needed, required, or expected in the performance of their duty. In other words, the soldiers must go beyond the call of duty. Loyalty and commitment are among the two main traits of a soldier in ensuring courage and determ...
