The main purpose of this study is to examine the effect of charismatic leadership on affective
organizational commitment of employees in accommodation establishments and to measure the
mediating effect of work engagement in this relationship. A questionnaire was conducted to collect data.
Questionnaires were conveyed via e-mail, and 481 applicable questionnaires were gathered. Using the
AMOS program, the research hypotheses were tested with structural equation modeling (SEM). As a
result of the analysis, it was found that the charismatic leadership style of the managers has a positive
and significant effect on the affective organizational commitment of employees; and work engagement
has a mediating effect on the relationship between charismatic leadership and affective organizational
commitment. No study has been found in the literature investigating the mediating effect of work
engagement on the relationship between charismatic leadership and affective organizational
commitment.
