Abstract	Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the impact of leadership styles on employee commitment at Bahir Dar University. Methodology: In order to achieve the objectives of the study, a cross-sectional survey design was conducted on a sample of 372 employees from eight different campuses of Bahir Dar University.
