A total of 118 administrative officers from the main campus and branch campuses throughout Klang Valley were randomly selected to participate in this study. Using both descriptive and inferential statistical method, the findings revealed that the administrative officers perceived that their superiors in IIUM exhibited more transformational leadership behaviour rather than transactional leadership behaviour. The findings also revealed that IIUM administrative officers perceived that they have high level of organizational commitment especially for both affective and normative commitment dimensions. Besides that, quality management practices in IIUM were perceived as high by most of administrative officers. The study also found both independent variables namely organizational commitments and leadership behaviour could influence quality management practices. Finally, the results displayed that organizational commitment contributed 32.6% to the variance of quality management practices. This study implied that building organizational commitment could contribute to effective and successful practices of quality management in the university. 2014 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/14208/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/14208/1/TM_ILMYZAT%20ISMAIL%20ED%2014_5.pdf text en public mphil masters Universiti Teknologi MARA Faculty of Education
