Question

Hector works as an assistant coach for the Boise Geysers in the U.S. Basketball Association. Recently, he was offered the position of head coaching duties with the Boulder Mountain Goats. Though their offer was very attractive, and it would have been a huge career move for Hector, he declined the offer. He felt it was with Geysers that he had learned and developed as a coach and that staying with the team was the right thing to do. This is an example of _____ commitment.

Answer 1

Answer:

This is an example of normative commitment.

Explanation:

Normative commitment exists when the employee has a sense of right and wrong. Employees who tend to have this specific type of commitment are generally loyal to the entire team and do not plan to leave them just because they found a better opportunity. For example, Hector did not want to leave the Boise Geysers because he felt that he owes a lot to the team as it was Geysers who made him learn and grow as a coach.
