description The objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between the variables of transformational leadership, climate and commitment in a sample of 319 workers of a multinational organization in the Colombian Services Sector. For data collection, we used the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ), the climate/culture questionnaire FOCUS-93 and the Intellectual, Social and Affective Commitment Scale (ISA). Data were processed with SPSS 23 and AMOS 22 for modeling with structural equations. In the path diagram, calculated according to the indicators of structural adjustments, variances were obtained for the dimensions of organizational commitment. The resulting model presented favorable adjustment indicators as evidenced in the results, and the relationship between commitment and climate was significant (β = 4.61; p = 0.001), as well as between climate and commitment (β = 0.018; p = 0.001). However, the relationship between transformational leadership and commitment was not direct but mediated through organizational climate.
