Description

The study explored the impact of humanistic management practices and transformational leadership on employees' grit. A comprehensive literature review was conducted to deepen the understanding of the study's concept. The research employed a correlational and assessment design, focusing on the employees of Divine Word College of Laoag as the study population. Data were collected using validated research questionnaires, and the analysis was performed using weighted mean and Pearson r correlation. The findings revealed that humanistic management practices had a moderate effect, while both transformational leadership style and employee grit were rated highly. Regarding correlation, the Pearson r analysis showed no significant relationship between humanistic management practices and employees' grit, but a strong positive correlation was found between transformational leadership style and employees' grit. The study acknowledges limitations related to the narrow scope of variables and sample size and recommends further research incorporating additional variables to better understand their influence on employee grit.
