Abstract: This study aims to assess the dimension and quality of the compassionate leadership measurement model (CLMM) using partial least square–confirmatory composite analysis. The Compassionate Leadership Questionnaire (CLQ) derived from the Compassionate Rationalism Leadership Questionnaire (CRLQ) was used to develop this model. Data were collected from 482 employees of the Rubber Authority of Thailand who completed the CLQ online and were randomly divided into two groups. The first and second groups comprise of 270 and 212 respondents for exploring the dimensions of the model and for confirming the model, respectively. The study investigated the dimensions, indicator loading, and reliability, convergent, discriminant, and nomological validity of the CLMM in the Thai context. The CLMM contains only 19 items out of a total of 27, and it employed dimensions that differed from the original model. The CLMM consists of three dimensions, namely, altruistic cooperation, empathy and humility, and trust-based empowerment. All items in the final CLMM displayed extremely high indicator loadings, which are ranked from acceptable to excellent. The findings suggest that the use of CLMM in the Thai context displayed adequate levels of convergent and discriminant validity and revealed a strong correlation between the CLMM and empathic leadership, which indicated that the CLMM achieved nomological validity. The current study provided substantial evidence regarding the high quality of the CLMM through confirmatory composite analysis.
