Cooperative Leaders Behaviour: Examining the Effect on Employee's Commitment in Malaysia

This research aims to investigate the connection that exists between leaders behaviour and employee's commitment and to further investigate on which type of commitment the employees are currently engaging themselves with. Eventually, leaders can create various strategies to improve commitment that are found to be lacking in their employees and to adjust their behaviour to suit mix requirements of the employees. As employees are considered as the most valuable asset in the organization, their commitment are very crucial to support the overall growth and future direction of the organizations. In this sense, leaders should take closer attention on the level of employees commitment to ensure that continuous contributions can be sustained and improved throughout the employee's career in the organization. At present, very little empirical work on leadership behaviour has been devoted to the co-operatives, especially in exploring the perception of employees towards their leaders. This study is dedicated to fill in a new dimension of leaders-employees relationship and facilitate reader's whom are passionate to understand this scenario in the cooperative societies.
