The Influence Of Leadership And Work Environment On Employee Performance, With Work Discipline As An Intervening Variable, At Cv Dinamika Artha Persada

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effects of leadership and work environment on employee performance through work discipline at CV Dinamika Artha Persada. The study employed a quantitative descriptive approach, with a population and sample of 80 employees selected using a census (saturated sampling) technique. Primary data were collected through a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire and supported by company secondary data. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, path analysis, t-tests, F-tests, the coefficient of determination, and the Sobel test. The results show that leadership (β = 0.509; p < 0.001) and work environment (β = 0.439; p < 0.001) have positive and significant effects on work discipline. In the employee performance model, leadership (β = 0.304; p = 0.001), work environment (β = 0.346; p < 0.001), and work discipline (β = 0.317; p = 0.003) also have positive and significant effects. The adjusted R² values are 0.697 for the work discipline model and 0.742 for the employee performance model. The Sobel test indicates that work discipline mediates the relationships of leadership (Sobel statistic = 2.7439; p = 0.00607) and work environment (Sobel statistic = 2.5709; p = 0.01014) with employee performance. These findings highlight the importance of managing leadership, work environment conditions, and work discipline in an integrated manner to support employee performance.
