THE IMPACT OF LEADERSHIP STYLE AND LOYALTY ON THE PERFORMANCE OF FACULTY AND EDUCATIONAL STAFF IN HEALTH EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

Abstract

Every institution requires optimal performance from its members to achieve expected goals. This research aims to determine the influence of leadership style and loyalty on the performance of faculty and educational staff in health education institutions. This study employs a correlational quantitative method. The research population consists of faculty and educational staff in health education institutions, and the sample is determined using simple random sampling in 44 faculty and 19 educational staff participants. The study is analyzed using validity tests, reliability tests, normality tests, and hypothesis tests, including T-test, F-test, adjusted R2, and linear regression. The results reveal that the leadership style implemented by leaders in health education institutions is participative. The levels of loyalty and performance of faculty and educational staff are very high. The hypothesis test results indicate the correlation coefficient for the influence of leadership style on the performance of faculty and educational staff is -0.118 with a significance value of 0.357. Meanwhile, the correlation coefficient for the influence of loyalty on performance is 0.320 with a significance value of 0.011. The F-test result is at 0.000 with an R2 of 0.107. Concluded that the leadership style implemented by leaders in health education institutions has a very low, negative, and insignificant influence, meaning that the higher the leadership variable value, the lower the performance variable value.
