Abstract
The effect of different factors on the relationship between work engagement and commitment on one hand and performance on the other is already established in the extant literature While a multiplicity of studies have identified differences in the moderating effect of experience level, gender, age on work engagement, commitment and performance is barely explored in the current literature even though with greater certainty. The objective of this research is to examine the influence of transformational leadership attributes on the employees’ work engagement. The results of the analysis earlier presented means that both hypotheses must be accepted. The study found out that while intellectual stimulation affects employees’ performance, the effect of idealised influence on employees’ work performance is significantly higher. The results affirm the long held notion that encouraging innovative thinking is an important factor that contributes to employee performance and vice versa.
