Data were obtained through a set of selfadministered questionnaire adopted from established instruments. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Results of the Pearson correlation indicated that there was a significant positive relationship between communication climate, leadership styles, emotional intelligence and attitude toward organizational change. In addition, the results of the multiple regression analysis showed a very strong contribution of transformational leadership style and emotional intelligence with 43.8% of the explained adjusted R² in attitude toward organizational change.
