“…One explanation is the Ghanaian culture, characterised by collectivism and high power distance, high-quality exchanges offer opportunities for employees to be in a leader's in-group, hence the need for reciprocity through OCBs. This study also speaks to the importance of OCBs in higher education and their significance in the growth and maturation of institutions/organizations in a globalknowledge, competitive business context (Khan and Malik, 2017). Results for H2 suggest that the interplay between work experience and LMX is compensatory in nature namely the positive effects of LMX on OCB decrease as work experience increases.…”

“…Such employees experiencing high quality LMX are thus able to access resources that they value and experience better relationships than those in a low quality LMX groups do (Sue- Chan et al, 2011). Besides employment contracts, high-quality associations are established on trust, loyalty, obligation, mutual liking, respect and loyalty, coupled with formal monetary exchanges, while low-quality relations are built solely on employment contracts and pure economic exchanges (Khan and Malik, 2017;Khorakian and Sharifirad, 2019). Consequently, employees in highquality relationships ultimately experience improved work performance (Stoffers et al, 2014) and commitment toward leaders and the organization (Graen and Uhl-Bien, 1995;Martin et al, 2016;Sue-Chan et al, 2011).…”

“…Commitment to change is influenced by the relationship between superior and subordinate [3]. The superior and subordinate relationship has a significant role in creating a healthy work environment that leads to the level of organizational success in achieving their goals [5]. The phenomenon of superior and subordinate relationship is often described in a dyadic relationship between superior and subordinate (leader-member exchange/LMX).…”
