Commitment is the process of making a promise or personal commitment to something, someone, or even yourself. In the workplace, commitment is in reference to the organisational goals, engagement in the organisation, and efforts to achieving those goals.
Role commitment is the responsibility you may feel to the mission or goals of your team, your department or the organisation. This level of commitment drives an individual to perform their tasks and fulfill their responsibility to meet their goals.
Commitment is often a mindset or holding yourself accountable, and focusing on what is important. It means there is a clear vision of goals that you can commit to you and a direction you can follow.

When making a commitment, communicate clearly, set up expectations and create signposts for each achievement as you strive to reach those goals. If you work with a team, ensure you work together to make decisions and commit to goals as a team. Supporting your team and ensuring you work through conflicts will encourage commitment to your goal. Commitment to organisation increases as teams bond and increase their feeling of being connected.
