Abstract
The objective of this study was mainly to propose a structural model of organizational effectiveness regarding the selected factors namely transformational leadership behaviors, learning organization culture, and employee involvement climate within the Thai energy sector. About 476 questionnaires were distributed to four major Thai energy enterprises, i.e. Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (136), Provincial Electricity Authority (98), Metropolitan Electricity Authority (127) and PTT Public Company Limited (115). To achieve the objective, the study utilized descriptive statistics and the Structural Equation Model. The findings presented that overall all constructs were found to have acceptable construct reliability scores within an acceptable range of factor loadings. The study developed the structural model of organizational effectiveness within the Thai energy sector with the acceptable fit scores from several model fit indices ( = 448.806, p< 0.001, CMIN/df = 2.704, GFI = 916, CFI = 975, RMR = .048, RMSEA = .060, NFI = .961, TLI = .969). After testing of the hypotheses, both direct and indirect effects were found in all constructs with the exception of a direct effect between transformational leadership and organizational effectiveness.
