THE INTERRELATIONSHIP of Organizational Culture, Talent Management, Transformational Leadership, and Commitment of Cooperative Employees in Region XII: A Path ANALYSIS

Abstract

Employee commitment is necessary for the overall success of cooperatives; nevertheless, these organizations, similar to others, face uncertainties stemming from evolving times, economic fluctuations, and political unpredictability. Using path analysis, the study investigated organizational culture, talent management, and transformational leadership contributions to employee commitment across various cooperatives in Region XII. The study employed an adapted survey questionnaire distributed to employees from different branches of financial cooperatives in the region, utilizing a combination of random and area sampling. The result revealed high employee commitment, organizational culture, talent management, and transformational leadership in the cooperatives. Also, it indicated a direct effect of talent management and organizational culture on employee commitment, while talent management and transformational leadership exhibit indirect effects on employee commitment through organizational culture. The study also revealed a significant relationship between talent management and transformational leadership. The result uncovered intricate dynamics, emphasizing the importance of fostering a culture aligned with talent development and the pivotal role of leadership in shaping employee commitment. The direct impact of talent management and organizational culture underscores their significance. They propose a holistic approach integrating talent management, transformational leadership, and a supportive organizational culture to enhance commitment within this unique cooperative setting in Region XII.
