Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of leadership style and organizational culture on employee performance with work motivation as an intervening variable at Bank Mandiri Singaraja Branch. The study employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive-correlational design. The population consisted of 40 employees, and all employees were included as the sample using saturated sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using path analysis with SPSS. The findings show that leadership style has a positive and significant effect on employee performance, while organizational culture also has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Work motivation has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Leadership style and organizational culture each have a positive and significant effect on work motivation. However, work motivation does not mediate the effect of leadership style on employee performance or the effect of organizational culture on employee performance. These findings indicate that employee performance at Bank Mandiri Singaraja Branch is more directly influenced by effective leadership and a strong organizational culture than through work motivation as an intervening mechanism. The practical implications are that management should strengthen effective leadership, internalize organizational values, and continue fostering work motivation through rewards, competency development, coaching, and effective communication.
