No 2, 112-119 INTRODUCTION Teachers play a very important role in the success and sustainability of the organization, especially in the delivery of quality teaching and education to students (Wiesner & Yuniarti, 2. Based on Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia year 2017 Number 19, the status of teachers is divided into two, namely teachers who have become State Civil Apparatuses and Non-State Civil Apparatuses. The teacher refers to the meaning that is a person who has the functions, duties, and obligations to carry out activities, stimulate, guide, direct, and encourage students to learn in order to realize a previously set goal, whether in the form of cognitive, affective, or psychomotor goals (Suwanto, 2. Based on the report that published in the book of Teacher Certification in Indonesia: A Strategy for Teacher Quality Improvement (Jalal et al. , 2. shows that teachers in Indonesia cannot be expected to be able to carry out their duties as well as This is confirmed by data from the Ministry of National Education that in a day there 500 thousand teachers skip classes or are absent from teaching for no apparent reason out of a total of 2. 6 million teachers in Indonesia. (Affa, 2. The same was also expressed by Dafani . that there still many teachers who are not yet committed to their organization. This can be seen from the behavior of teachers who like to leave class when teaching, are late for class, and are lazy in class. This indiscipline action can be classified as a consequence of the teacherAs lack of dedication to his organization and the absence of disciplinary action from superiors. (Masaong, 2. TeachersA organizational commitment on a local scale at public high school in Bogor Regency. West Java can be classified into the category Austill needs to be improvedAy. This can be seen based on the phenomenon of reduced teachersA commitment to school organizations which was found through a simple interview that researchers conducted in March 2023 with several public high school teachers in the Bogor Regency area, where many teachers often left class early and were late in submitting administrative tasks such as student Phenomenon as above was also expressed by Juhum . who conducted preliminary research on private junior high school teachers in Beringin District. Deli Serdang Regency and from the results of initial observations conducted in December 2012 to January 2013 in several schools showed symptoms of reduced teacher commitment to the school organization, among which teachers were often late to attend school, teachers often leave class before the time is over, teachers teach at other schools on their way home from school. This data is supported by the junior high school superintendent of Beringin District who informed the condition of teachers in January 2013 as follows: around 55% of teachers attended after class had started, 40% of teachers often asked permission to leave without clear reasons, 40% of teachers left teaching assignments when the principal or boss is not present. and 85% of teachers still use the previous year's lesson plan without improvement (Juhum, 2. Those phenomenon felt unsettle, considering organizational commitment to teachers is known to be important because it is increases high performance and discipline in terms of attendance, assigned assignments, and fulfilment of school goals (Fitriani. Izatti & Setyowati, 2. Organizational commitment will make teachers have better work assignments which will improve student achievement and produce schools with good Steers. Porter, and Bigley . states that the factors that affect commitment include: personal characteristics, work characteristics, organizational characteristics, and the nature and quality of work. Similar opinion is reinforced by Balay . and Ari . , where they classify the factors that influence organizational commitment, namely in terms of organizational factors such as job responsibility, senior-subordinates co-workersA relationship etc. , as well as in terms of jobrelated characteristics such as job satisfaction level, feed-back, etc. Based on the problems above, it can be said that the low organizational commitment of teachers in school organizations is closely related to the superior's leadership style and also job satisfaction of the teachers in school. Motiva: Jurnal Psikologi 2024. Vol 7. No 2, 112-119 The success of an organization will not be separated from the role of the leader to his subordinates or employees. Individuals who make significant contributions to the creation of supportive settings and situations in the workplace are known as leaders (Trioctavia. Hamid, & Mukzam, 2. Every leader is a unique individual with a unique set of skills (Eliyana. Marif, & Muzakki, 2. Bass and Riggio . defines transformational leadership as behaviour that can stimulate and inspire followers to achieve results in the process of developing leadership skills, vision and goals given by the organization, to challenge oneself in innovating, solving problems, and developing leadership abilities to subordinates through coaching, mentoring, challenges, and support. Schermerhorn . n Ilyas, 2. argued that there are four dimensions of transformational leadership, namely charisma, inspirational, intellectual motivator and individual attention. Several other studies (Ausat. Suherlan. Peirisal & Hirawal, 2022. Veraya, 2. which states that there is a significant positive leadership and organizational commitment to teachers, and transformational leadership also contributes to organizational commitment by 5% (Ilyas, 2. The existence of a positive relationship indicates that if transformational leadership increases, the value of organizational commitment also Transformative leadership qualities are important in increasing the level of organizational commitment of its members (Teharaja & Hamid, 2. The results of the research above show that transformational leadership has a role in increasing organizational commitment to teachers as actors in the organization. This is related to the ability of superiors to encourage and inspire teachers, so that teachers have a positive perception of the leadership of their superiors which can foster attachment and trust. When the teacher gets ideal influence and supervision from his superiors, it can increase the teacher's organizational commitment in the Sadaf et al. compiled several recent studies showing that organizations should focus on increasing the loyalty and organizational commitment of workers not only through financial means but also through Organizations must have care and respect for the employees to develop a sense of belonging and obligation within them. Organizations must also rely on values and beliefs to increase the organizational commitment of their Job satisfaction in workers can be a significant measure of workers' emotions about their jobs (Nanci & Velmurugan, 2. Job satisfaction is defined as a pleasant feeling or emotion . hich is also known as affec. of an individual who develops as a consequence of evaluating his job or his experience of it (Locke, 1. Spector . identified nine aspects of job satisfaction as follows: salary, promotion, supervision, additional benefits, contingent reward operating procedures . ules and procedures require. , colleagues, nature of work, and communication. Job satisfaction is an important aspect of teacher commitment, turnover and school effectiveness. It is accepted by educational leaders, policy makers and researchers that teacher job satisfaction is a key element in influencing the attainment of organizational goals (Sharma & Jyoti, 2. Commitment is referred to as recognition, emotional attachment and professional intervention in the organization. Research conducted by Patrick and Sonia . showed a positive relationship between job satisfaction and commitment. Job satisfaction is considered as the main link in the association of work commitment and ability (Yousaf & Sanders, 2. Another study conducted by Kura et al. Singh and Sharma . Huda and Mulyadi . Sadaf et al. revealed that there is a significant positive relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment. other words, employees who are satisfied with their jobs tend to be committed to their organizations and vice versa. Employees who are satisfied at their work place are highly creative, productive and they show a higher level of commitment and professionalism (Cortez et al. , 2. Based on the description above, it can be stated that organizational commitment is something that is very important, including in school organizations. Without organizational commitment, teachers will not carry out their duties and responsibilities properly so that it Motiva: Jurnal Psikologi 2024. Vol 7. No 2, 112-119 can reduce student achievement which ends up harming the organization. Transformational leadership and job satisfaction are felt to be The more teachers get transformative leaders, the more committed they are to their tasks and organization because they feel supervised and motivated. Likewise, if teachers feel satisfied with their work, it will increase their contribution and feel proud to be part of an organization. In this study, the hypothesis proposed H1: There is an influence of perceived transformational leadership style and job satisfaction organizational commitment in H2: There is an influence of perceived organizational commitment in teachers. H3: There is an influence of job satisfaction on organizational commitment to teachers.

No 2, 112-119 Based on the results of data analysis carried out using multiple regression test, it is known the effect of transformational leadership and job satisfaction simultaneously on organizational commitment obtained a significance value of p <. 001, therefore, it can be concluded that transformational leadership and job satisfaction have a very significant influence on organizational commitment.

Hypotheses Test Variable Transformational Leadership and Job Satisfaction on Organizational Commitment Transformational Leadership on Organizational Commitment Job Satisfaction on Organizational Commitment Sig. Note Influence Significantly Influence Significantly Influence Significantly DISCUSSION Based on the results of data analysis carried out using multiple regression test, it is known that all three hypotheses were not First hypothesis was supported by a research conducted by Ilyas . The researcher found that both transformational leadership and job satisfaction together have a significant positive relationship and contribute to organizational commitment of 38. This indicates that if the value of transformational leadership and job satisfaction is high, then the value of organizational commitment is also For the second hypothesis, the result is in line with research conducted by Windarti. Abdullah, and Retnowati . who found a significant positive relationship between transformational leadership and organizational commitment, especially for teachers. The quality of transformative leaders was shown to be important in increasing the level of organizational commitment in organizational members (Teharaja & Hamid, 2. This shows that when workers have transformative leaders, the organizational commitment of workers tends to be higher (Veraya, 2. For the third hypothesis, the result that was obtained is in line with research conducted by Sadaf et al. , which revealed that there is a significant influence of job satisfaction on organizational commitment, especially on teachers. In other words, teachers who are satisfied with their jobs tend to be more committed to their organizations and vice versa (Huda and Mulyadi, 2. Employees who are satisfied in their workplace are more creative, productive and they show higher levels of commitment and professionalism (Cortez et al. , 2. These organizational commitment to teachers will increase when teachers can have a positive perception of the leadership of their superiors. This study proves the suitability of the theory put forward by Mowday. Steers, and Porter . which revealed that leadership is one of the factors considered as a key determinant of employeeAs organizational commitment. When the teacher gets motivation, supervision, and exemplary from the principal, it will form a high sense of attachment and trust in the leader and impact on his attachment to the If the teacher considers that the school has provided salaries, allowances, promotions, rewards, rules, supervision, and opportunities to be active in organizational development, it Motiva: Jurnal Psikologi 2024.

No 2, 112-119 will lead to satisfaction at work and therefore lead to a higher commitment to the Job satisfaction can be a significant measure of workersA emotions about the work done (Nanci & Velmurugan. In addition, teachers are one of the important assets in the success of the world of education, namely for schools as work institutions and students as one of the actors in learning and teaching. Teachers who have high organizational commitment will certainly behave professionally and have loyalty to the school where they work. Teachers are always involved in achieving school goals, feel proud to have loyalty to remain or serve the school. This is confirmed by Zeinabadia and Salehib . which reveals that if a teacher is well educated and has a high commitment to his organization then the success of students and schools will be the result. commitment and work performance.
