Abstract:
This study investigates predictors of organizational commitment i.e. allocentrics, procedural justice and
servant leadership based on the moderating effect of work meaning. A survey of 195 employees of a state
owned hotel in Yogyakarta, Indonesia was analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling. Result
indicated that allocentrics and procedural justice positively predicted organizational commitment while
servant leadership had no effect on organizational commitment. Result were explained in terms of
cultural differences, particularly the opposite result of the relationship between allocentrics and
organizational commitment, compare to its counterpart in the west, and the similar result of the
relationship between procedural justice – which is a western value – and organizational commitment.
