Abstract
This research aimed to study Thai leadership style and procedural justice in Thai cultural management toward organizational commitment. To analyze the data for investigating the causal model we used the 550 employees’ questionnaire in the Thai cultural management organization. The component model consisted of an independent factor, the perception of Thai leadership, and organizational commitment was the dependent factor with a set of mediators: procedural justice, self-support, personality and the level of employee happiness.
The results showed that the average score of all factors was at a high level of perception while the fit index of our hypothesis model, Relative-fit, CFI, GFI, and RMSEA were 2.189, 99, 95 and 0.046 respectively. The interesting finding was that the personality factor was no significance to the level of employee happiness. This may be due to the fact that approximately 90% of the samples were operational staff who emphasized work rather than communication and personality.
