Impact of transformational leadership style and work discipline on employee performance in the regional revenue agency of South Sumatra Province

Abstract

This research investigates the influence of transformational leadership style and work discipline on employee performance in the Regional Revenue Agency of South Sumatra Province. The population of this study comprises all civil servants (PNS) in the Regional Revenue Agency of South Sumatra Province in 2023, totaling 107 employees, all of whom were included as samples using a census technique. The multiple linear regression analysis results indicate that transformational leadership style and work discipline positively and significantly impact employee performance. The role of transformational leadership style necessitates the provision of appreciation, support, and motivation to employees. Additionally, work discipline requires strict measures for employees who violate institutional regulations, such as issuing warning letters to those who frequently breach the established rules, especially regarding attendance during working hours. Furthermore, leaving the office should align with approved permissions and be related to work responsibilities rather than personal interests.
