Popis: Employee commitment to change is critical to the success of organisational change. This study draws upon social learning theory and examines the influence of both manager and team attitude toward change on employee commitment to change, with gender composition and power distance orientation as moderators. The sample comprised 291 employees and 38 managers from five Taiwanese companies that implemented knowledge management related technologies. The results showed that team attitude had a positive association with commitment to change. Power distance orientation negatively moderated the relationship between manager attitude and commitment to change, and it positively moderated the relationship between team attitude and commitment to change. There was also a three-way interaction among power distance orientation, gender composition, team attitude, and commitment to change.
