Journal Title: Polish Journal of Management Studies - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of transformational leadership shown by managers and organizational support on employee empowerment. With this purpose, the study uses transformational leadership, organizational support, and employee empowerment variables and contributes to the field by adding organizational support as the mediator variable. Data collection was performed through surveys distributed to 350 employees and 191 surveys were collected. The data were analysed by structural equation model. It was found that transformational leadership and organizational support have positive effects on employee empowerment. Although organizational support plays a mediator role in the relationship between transformational leadership and employee empowerment, this role is not at a significant level.<br/><br/>
