The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of the transformational leadership style on job satisfaction and organisational commitment. It was proposed that a transformational leadership style was a significant predictor of front office employees' satisfaction and organisational commitment. A quantitative approach was used by using a survey tool to gather data from front office employees in four and five-star hotels in Cairo. A stratified random sample of 18 hotels (300 employees) was selected, representing 33.3% of the 54 hotels' population, giving a response rate of 60.3% (181 employees). A series of regression analyses were conducted to examine the direct impact of transformational leadership on employee satisfaction and organisational commitment. The current study findings revealed that the transformational leadership style revealed a significant and positive impact of transformational leadership on job satisfaction and organisational commitment. The study finally presented implications such as designing suitable curricula for academe, the application of transformational leadership for hotel management, transformational behaviours that could be incorporated into the training courses for human resource management, and making comprehensive plans to assist hospitality operations to obtain capable and professional leaders for concerned authorities. Several limitations could be future research topics.

PurposeThis article aims to analyse the trait emotional intelligence (TEI) of business students of various programmes. This study aims to answer the question, to what extent these future leaders are uniformly equipped with essential emotional intelligence competences, necessary in the VUCA world.Design/methodology/approachThe Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue) was used to measure TEI of 120 business students. Spearman's and Tau–Kendall's rank correlation coefficients show the strength of the correlation between age and TEI level. The non-parametric Mann–Whitney U test was employed to evaluate the consistency of TEI-level distributions in selected subgroups of respondents.FindingsFuture business leaders and management specialists are unequally prepared to manage teams and organizational change effectively. Their TEI distribution is significantly different regarding the type of programme of study. Students of “social fields” (Management, Communication and Psychology in Business) show higher TEI than students of “analytical fields” (Economics, Finance and Accounting, Logistics). Master's students are characterized by higher TEI compared to undergraduates. However, there were no statistically significant differences in TEI between: full-time and part-time, female and male, as well as working and non-working students.Practical implicationsThe results provide valuable guidance for organizations recruiting junior managers and for business universities.Originality/valueThis research was based on a well-established concept of emotional intelligence using a reliable research tool. The obtained results complement the existing research on TEI of various professional groups and provide a precious reference point for future, more in-depth analyses of TEI.

In same context Employees' performance at work is negatively impacted by workplace policies.…”
