Summary:Previous studies have consistently shown that Cultural Intelligence (CQ) is an important skill in today's organizations. The literature on leadership suggests that CQ has the potential to increase both employee commitment and organizational outcomes. This study is a survey related to leadership style at organizations. The research attempts to investigate how leaders affect staff's Organizational Commitment (OC).
