Book excerpt: Organizations all over the world are working to ensure they are as effective and competitive as possible. Researchers intending to help both leaders and organizations improve performance have studied several versions of the variables of empowerment, transformational leadership, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction. Through the studies researchers have frequently demonstrated the relationship of each of these variables. In an effort to help leaders understand the actions they can implement to improve organizational performance, many recent studies have been focused on developing a more complete model of empowerment that explains how empowerment contributes to the outcome variables of organizational commitment and job satisfaction. This study extends research in this important area by testing the mediation of empowering leadership on the relationship of the independent variable of psychological empowerment with the dependent variables, organizational commitment and job satisfaction. The study provided support for empowering leadership functioning as a mediator between psychological empowerment and organizational commitment but not job satisfaction.
