Employees’ turnover is a critical issue and the greatest challenge faced by an
organisation especially for management and human resources for organizations
because of its associated costs, losing of productivity, decreasing organization profits,
potential loss of valuable knowledge, skills and also intellectual capital. Today the
numbers of employees leave a position or job continues to rise especially in private
sector. A company has to spend substantial amount of money and time in order to
recruit and train new employees to be as same as the experienced one especially in
maritime sector which require high level of skills and experiences. The objectives of
this research are to examine the influence of transformational leadership on
organizational culture and investigating the relationship between transformational
leadership, organizational culture and intention to leave of employees in private
sectors and maritime agencies at Kuala Kedah and Kuala Terengganu. Based on the
previous research, the factors that force employees to leave an organisation are
colleague, working environment, organisation culture, job stressor and leadership. In
order to achieve these research objectives, simple regression analysis is performed
through the use of Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Transformational
leadership and organisational culture are expected to be one of the factors that
contributing to employee intention to leave.
