Abstract:
The phenomenon of closing many retail outlets in Indonesia recently has one of the impacts of decreasing the processed food distribution network. Anticipating this, an organization must adjust its capabilities through the support of the leaders and continuous organizational learning (OL). Studies explain the importance of authentic leadership (AL) styles in OL. However, the role of affective commitment (AC) is still slightly involved. Therefore, this study aims to measure the role of AC in mediating the relationship between AL and OL. This study is an empirical-quantitative study on company X based in Jakarta, one of the largest chicken-based food processing companies in Indonesia. Using the probability sampling technique, 78 employees at the head office were sampled in this study. The questionnaire and the SMART PLS complement the analysis. This study states that the role of AC successfully mediates the relationship between AL and OL. Furthermore, this study also explains that AL af
fects AC and OL. In addition, AC also affects the OL. Surviving, competing, and even winning are inseparable from the role of the leader, team, and organizational learning. Trust from stakeholders (strengthen or even weaken) is considered necessary to be involved in the next research.
