Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to determine what domains of leadership skills and organizational culture significantly predict employees' organizational citizenship behavior. The 350 employees of the Department of Agrarian Reform in Region XI participated in this descriptive correlational study. The data were analyzed based on findings from government employees across the different divisions of the Department of Agrarian Reform in Region XI. This study evaluated the influence of Leadership Skills and Organizational Culture on Organizational Citizenship Behavior, examined the relationships between Leadership Skills and Organizational Citizenship Behavior and between Organizational Culture and Organizational Citizenship Behavior, and identified the specific factors that were the most significant predictors of Organizational Citizenship Behavior. These findings suggested that leadership behaviors that shape organizational identity and cultural cohesion are more impactful in eliciting organizational citizenship behavior than operational or task-focused leadership functions.
