Commitment as Part of Buy-in

Commitment is defined as

"...Employees' attachment to implement new rules, procedures, technologies, etc..."

Elda Dollija, 2021

There are 3 types of commitment:

  1. i) affective commitment (shows employees’ emotional attachment to the organisation; it includes the following characteristics:

            - personal

            - structural

            - job related

            - work experiences

"...Employees, who are committed to an effective way, work hard if they want to be part of the organisation..."

Elda Dollija, 2021)

  1. ii) normative commitment (this is linked with the feeling of obligation to remain with the organisation.

"...Employees feel that staying in the organisation is the proper thing to do..."

Elda Dollija, 2021)

iii) continuous commitment (sometimes called instrumental commitment as staff evaluate that the benefits of staying with the organisation outweigh the negatives).
