The Influence of Transformational Leadership Style and Organisational Climate on Employee Performance at the Office of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection of North Maluku Province

Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of transformational leadership style and organisational climate on employee performance at the Office of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection (DP3A) of North Maluku Province, both partially and simultaneously. The research adopts a quantitative approach, with data collected through questionnaires distributed to 60 respondents. The data were analysed using SPSS version 26, employing a series of procedures including data quality testing, classical assumption testing, and multiple linear regression analysis. The findings reveal that transformational leadership style and organisational climate simultaneously exert a statistically significant influence on employee performance, as indicated by an F-statistic of 54.674 and a significance value of 0.000, which is below the 0.05 threshold. These results suggest that enhancing inspirational leadership practices, alongside developing a conducive organisational climate, can substantially optimise employee performance within the agency. Overall, this study concludes that leadership dynamics and the internal work environment play a strategic role in determining the quality of public service delivery and organisational productivity at the DP3A Office of North Maluku Province.
