Background and Objectives: One of the best ways to maintain and improve human resources is to improve employee job satisfaction. On the other hand, the use of managers with a transformational leadership style is one of the most important factors in improving job satisfaction. The purpose of this research was to investigate the impact of transformational leadership on the job satisfaction of employees with regard to the mediating role of psychological empowerment.
Method: The statistical population of this research was 1500 employees of the central headquarters of the Tehran Social Security Organization. The sample size was calculated using the random sampling method and using Cochran's formula of 306 people. Data collection tools were the Avolio and Bass standard transformational leadership questionnaire, Minnesota job satisfaction questionnaire, and Spretitzer psychological empowerment questionnaire. The validity of the questionnaires was measured by face and content validity and reliability by Cronbach's alpha coefficient, whose value was calculated as 0.79 for the transformational leadership questionnaire, 0.83 for the empowerment questionnaire, and 0.82 for the job satisfaction questionnaire. Analysis of research data through path analysis And the structural equation model was done using SmartPLS software.
Results: Based on the findings, all research hypotheses have been confirmed. The results obtained from the Sobel test show that the indirect effect of transformational leadership style on job satisfaction through employee empowerment is 0.556; The positive value of beta (0.556) indicates the positive intensity of the effect.
Conclusion: The results of the research show that the role of transformational leadership by the managers of the organization will be effective in the feeling of job satisfaction and its improvement by creating working conditions that provide the empowerment of employees.
