Abstract


This study aims to determine the influence of Transformational Leadership and Perceived Organizational Support on Readiness for Change, mediated by Organizational Commitment, among employees of PERUMDAM Tirta Dharma Purabaya, Madiun Regency. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing a sample of 63 respondents comprising the entire workforce of PERUMDAM Tirta Dharma Purabaya, Madiun Regency selected via a saturated sampling technique. Data processing and analysis were conducted using SmartPLS 4.0 software. The analysis involved testing the measurement model (Outer Model) covering convergent validity, discriminant validity, and reliability and the structural model (Inner Model) assessing R-square and Q-square values as well as hypothesis testing via bootstrapping. The results indicate that Transformational Leadership and Perceived Organizational Support have a positive and significant influence on Organizational Commitment. Furthermore, Transformational Leadership, Perceived Organizational Support, and Organizational Commitment all exert a positive and significant influence on Readiness for Change. Organizational Commitment was found to mediate the influence of Transformational Leadership and Perceived Organizational Support on Readiness for Change among the employees of PERUMDAM Tirta Dharma Purabaya, Madiun Regency.
