AB Understanding what organisational factorsmost influence staff turnover remains a challengein human talent management. Thisstudy addresses this issue by examininghow transformational leadership, work climate,and happiness management interactto explain turnover intention. A sample of414 workers from various industries in Mexicowas surveyed, and data were analysedusing structural equation modelling. Thefindings show that transformational leadershipsignificantly influences work climateand happiness management. However, asexpected given the mediating structure ofthe model, there is no direct effect betweentransformational leadership and turnoverintention. Instead, work climate and happinessmanagement act as mediators, withhappiness management playing a direct andsignificant role in reducing turnover intention.These results reveal complex interdependenciesand underscore the importanceof promoting leadership styles and organisationalstrategies that strengthen happinessmanagement to enhance talent retentionand organizational sustainability.
