【 摘 要 】

This empirical research investigates the influence of the construction project managers’ contemporary leadership (CL) on the job satisfaction (JS), organizational commitment (OC), and turnover intention (TI) of the civil engineers in the Thai setting. A sequential explanatory mixed method was used in the study whereby the quantitative research was carried out with a sample of 450 civil engineers using a validated questionnaire and a structural equation model. An in-depth interview with another 10 civil engineers was subsequently conducted and the qualitative findings compared against the quantitative results. The quantitative results revealed that CL exerted a direct positive influence on JS and OC and a direct negative influence on TI. The qualitative findings were mostly agreeable with the quantitative results except for the OC aspect where the interviewees attached the greatest value to the OC’s monetary components, as opposed to the quantitative results.
