dc.description.abstractAbstract Employees play a crucial role in the day to day affairs of an organization. These affairs can only be carried out if these employees are highly committed to their organization. Commitment to an organization can also be achieved if there is an acceptable form of leadership style and an appealing communication climate. A situation whereby these factors are not in existence in an organization, there is every tendency that such organization will begin to encounter a gradual phase of extinction. Based on this, this study considers it fit to investigate the influence of leadership style (LS), communication climate (CC) on employee commitment (EC) of secretaries in private Universities in Osun State. Descriptive research design was adopted. Population consisted of 72 secretaries in private higher institution of learning in Osun state. Seventy-Two secretaries served as the sample size for this study. Total enumeration sampling technique was adopted as the sampling technique. The instrument utilized is a structured questionnaire, which was used to collect data from respondents. The reliability coefficient for each of the variable ranged from 0.75 to 0.90. Data collected was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings revealed that LS had no significant influence on EC (Adj. R2 = -0.001; p = 0.338), CC was also found not to significantly influence EC (Adj. R2 = -0.013; p = 0.815). Jointly, LS and CC were found not to statistically significantly influence EC (Adj. = .003, F(2, 69) = 1.100, p < 0.05). The study concluded that both LS and CC did not independently and jointly influenced EC. In light of this, the study recommended that organizational heads have got to promote to a large extent a trust climate in their organization. This will go a long way in reducing high level turnover among employees in organizations. Key Words: Communication Climate, Employee Commitment, Leadership Style, Secretaries. Word Count: 288
