Previous studies demonstrate the role of the brand experience in brand equity and other consumer behavior constructs. But very little is known about the impact of brand experiences on fashion brands. The aim of this study is to develop a model which makes our understanding better about the role of Brand preference and Brand experience and its influence on purchase intention of the brand. An initial exploratory study is conducted using a focus group to generate items for the study. The items, thus generated are prepared in the form of a questionnaire and samples were collected.  Exploratory factor analysis is conducted and the reliability of the constructs is determined. These constructs are loaded onto AMOS to perform Confirmatory factor analysis. The results confirmed the scales used.

Using non-probability sampling with the calculation of exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation modeling, the authors found that leadership significantly affects meeting effectiveness, and meeting effectiveness positively influences organizational commitment with the mediation of job satisfaction.
