Abstract

Employee work engagement is one of the key factors to manage successful organizational change. The present study investigated the moderating effect of gender diversity between transformational leadership, valence, and employee work engagement. Applying social bond theory, expectancy theory of motivation, and mental model theory, six hypotheses were examined in this study, using data from 300 full-time employees from Bangladesh’s banking sector. This study applied structural equation modeling for data analysis. The finding showed both transformational leadership and valence had a direct association with employee work engagement. In addition, gender diversity had a moderating effect on the proposed hypotheses. Finally, this study also revealed that female employees were more pronounced than male employees in the context of organizational change.
