description Several studies highlight the significant role of authentic leadership and followers' organizational commitment on organizational citizenship behavior in business organizations. However, the study of the constructs in the context of educational organization was given less attention in the current literature. This research was intended to assess the influence of authentic leadership and organizational commitment on organizational citizenship behavior in higher education institutions using a quantitative approach and a descriptive survey research design. The collected data from 150 college teacher respondents in the Philippines and hypotheses were assessed using SPSS and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) AMOS software. The results of this research revealed that authentic leadership and teachers' organizational commitment significantly influence organizational citizenship behavior. The results also depicted that authentic leadership significantly affects organizational commitment. Results yielded that authentic leadership has an indirect influence on organizational citizenship behavior through organizational commitment. This study provides new insights to educational leaders, scholars, and practitioners on the significance of leaders’ authentic leadership on teachers' organizational commitment and organizational citizenship behavior in educational organizations and the significance of leader-teacher relationships in the organization.
