The purpose of this research is to examine the interplay between employment capability development, organizational culture, and organizational IT adaptability in shaping organizational commitment and performance in the Gambia National Water and Electricity Company (NAWEC). The population consists of 1,546 structural officials, including senior and junior administrative and technical support staff, with a sample of 318 respondents. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with AMOS software. The results of the study indicate that employment capability development, organizational culture, and organizational commitment all have a positive and significant effect on organizational performance. Additionally, employment capability development has a positive and significant effect on organizational commitment. However, organizational culture does not have a significant effect on organizational commitment. The findings also show that employment capability development significantly affects organizational performance through organizational commitment, whereas organizational culture does not affect organizational performance through organizational commitment. Furthermore, organizational IT adaptability does not moderate the influence of employment capability development on organizational commitment.
