Abstract
Purpose: This study sought to provide a more comprehensive understanding of how managers’ coaching skills can affect individual performance through the mediating role of affective commitment.
Design/methodology/approach: The sample included 198 employees from diverse organizations.
Based on an online survey, respondents assessed their managers’ coaching skills and reported their own individual performance and affective commitment to their organization.
Findings: The findings show that managers’ coaching skills have a positive impact on individual
performance and affective commitment, with the latter mediating the relationship between the first
two variables.
Research limitations/implications: Additional studies with larger samples are needed to understand
more fully not only the impact of managers’ coaching skills on individual performance but also other
psychosocial variables affecting that relationship.
Practical implications: Organizations can increase employees’ affective commitment and individual
performance by encouraging managers to integrate more coaching skills into their leadership styles.
Originality/value: This study is the first to integrate managers’ coaching skills, affective
commitment, and individual performance into a single research model, thereby extending previous
research on this topic.
