Employee commitment is the essential element especially for the government entities success where employees are not willing to perform and this situation motivates the research to examine employee commitment of the government entities in Dubai. Thus, this study investigated the relationship between leadership styles and employees’ commitment and communication among Dubai government entities. This study also assess the impact of communication on the relationship between leadership styles and employees’ commitment at the Dubai Immigration Department (DID). This study has followed the quantitative methods of data collection and also used the smart- PLS for analysis. The findings revealed that transformational and transactional styles have positive effects on employees’ commitment to DID. Findings also revealed that there is a significant relationship between transformational and transactional styles and communication. A positive effect is also discovered to exist between communication and employees’ commitment. Communication mediates transformational and transactional styles and employee commitment. The original contribution to knowledge is the mediating role communication plays in DID in relation to employees’ commitment. These findings helped to determine the appropriate recommendations for policy and practice in the UAE, as well as suggestions for future research.
