The purpose of this research is to strengthen the function of organizational commitment as a mediator in the process of improving transformational leadership abilities in order to improve the performance of employees working in hotels. There is a positive correlation between all of the variables; in addition to this, transformational leadership has an effect on both employee performance and organizational commitment. Another very significant aspect is the role that organizational commitment plays as a mediator in the connection between transformational leadership and employee performance. This is an extremely crucial aspect. The use of variable organizational commitment as a mediator of the relationship between transformational leadership and employee performance in the research that was carried out in the scope of research at a star hotel in Central Java is a novel approach that contributes to the advancement of the field. The findings of this research have a number of further theoretical ramifications for transformational leadership.
