The impact of well-being on work performance
This study investigates the impact of employee well-being—emotional, economic, and relational – on organizational performance, emphasizing the mediating role of job satisfaction. A quantitative method was applied using survey data collected from 191 employees in Dâmbovița County, Romania. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS) was employed to test the proposed hypotheses. Results indicate that economic and emotional well-being positively influence job satisfaction, which in turn significantly predicts work performance. Economic well-being also directly affects performance. However, relational well-being does not show significant effects. The study offers theoretical contributions by outlining the unique influence of each well-being dimension, along with practical implications for HR policies aimed at enhancing employee satisfaction and performance. The research provides new insights into how job satisfaction influences the relationship between various types of well-being and performance in a Central-Eastern European context.

This study aims to analyze the influence of Person-Organization Fit (P-O Fit), Person-Job Fit (P-J Fit), and Perceived Organizational Support (POS) on employee performance, as well as to evaluate the mediating role of job satisfaction among permanent employees in the banking sector in Jakarta. The research uses a quantitative explanatory approach with a survey method, involving 300 bank employees in Jakarta as respondents. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with 5,000 bootstrap resampling. The results show that POS has both a direct and indirect significant effect on employee performance through job satisfaction. P-O Fit directly affects performance but does not significantly influence job satisfaction. Conversely, P-J Fit significantly affects job satisfaction but does not have a direct impact on performance. Job satisfaction is proven to be a significant mediator in the relationships between P-J Fit and POS with performance. These findings highlight the importance of organizational support and job fit in enhancing employee satisfaction and performance. The practical implication of this study suggests that human resource strategies in the banking sector should focus on increasing job satisfaction through alignment and organizational support approaches as a strategic effort to improve employee performance.

The research explored the impacts of diverse leadership styles on employee performance in Ethiopian sports organizations. It specifically examined the mediating effects of job satisfaction and the moderating impact of education level. In this study a cross-sectional survey design was employed, with 463 participants from various sports organizations. Validated scales were used for the data collection of leadership styles, job satisfaction, and employee performance. The analysis of the data was conducted using descriptive statistics and structural equation modeling with software SPSS and Smart PLS4. The findings indicated that the perceived transformational leadership approach showed the strongest positive correlation with job satisfaction and employee performance, followed by the transactional leadership approach. In contrast, the laissez-faire leadership interaction with both employee job satisfaction and performance was demonstrated negatively. Job satisfaction was partially mediated in the relation between all three leadership styles and employee performance. Moreover, education level moderated the interaction between transformational leadership and job satisfaction. Drawing upon these findings, recommendations were provided for Ethiopian sports organizations to improve leadership styles and enhance employee performance, with a focus on understanding the mediating effect of job satisfaction and moderating effect of education level.

Objective: This research aims to assess job satisfaction's mediating role between transformational leadership (TL), work environment (WE), knowledge management (KM) practices, and employee performance (EP) by investigating TL's and WE's impact on job satisfaction, and examining how job satisfaction mediates the relationships between TL, KM practices, and EP. Theoretical Framework: The theoretical framework examines key factors affecting employee performance and organizational success. It highlights task and contextual performance, environmental influences, and the role of performance appraisals. Effective human resource practices, knowledge management, and transformational leadership are essential for high performance. Job satisfaction, influenced by knowledge management and leadership, enhances organizational success. Method: This quantitative study investigates the relationships among transformational leadership (TL), work environment (WE), job satisfaction (JS), knowledge management (KM) practices, and employee performance (EP). Data from 411 Thai-speaking participants are analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). The study employs validated questionnaires, a 5-point Likert scale, and ADANCO software to assess model fit, reliability, and validity. Results: The sample predominantly comprised females (64.7%) and individuals with bachelor’s degrees (59.12%), with 31.87% employed in companies and 41.12% earning between 30,001 and 50,000 baht. Descriptive analysis revealed strong positive perceptions of KM, TL, WE, JS, and EP, with mean scores between 4.74 and 4.87, underscoring the focus on EP. Structural equation modeling (SEM) identified significant relationships between KM and JS (0.0277), TL and JS (0.0533), WE and JS (0.1720), and JS and EP (0.4721). JS emerged as a key mediator between KM, TL, and WE, accounting for substantial variance in both JS and EP, reflected by R² values of 0.0385 and 0.3283. Although the KM-JS and TL-JS relationships were relatively weak, JS significantly influenced EP. The study advocates for enhancing KM, TL, and WE to improve JS and EP, while recommending future research to investigate moderating factors, longitudinal designs, and cross-cultural contexts. Research Implications: The study reveals critical insights into job satisfaction (JS) as a mediator between transformational leadership (TL), knowledge management (KM), work environment (WE), and employee performance (EP): TL significantly influences KM and WE, while effective KM enhances EP. JS mediates the positive effects of TL, KM, and WE on EP, though moderate correlations suggest other influencing factors. The research emphasizes contextual nuances within Thai organizations, underscoring the complexity of these relationships and the need for further investigation to fully understand their organizational implications. Originality/Value: This study offers innovative insights into the interactions among Knowledge Management (KM), Transformational Leadership (TL), Work Environment (WE), Job Satisfaction (JS), and Employee Performance (EP) in Thai organizations. It identifies JS as a key mediator in the effects of KM, TL, and WE on EP, deepening the understanding of organizational dynamics. Moderate correlations between KM and JS, and TL and JS, suggest additional moderating factors. The pivotal role of JS in determining EP emphasizes the need for organizations to enhance JS to improve performance. The study's focus on Thai organizations highlights cultural and contextual influences, bridging local practices with broader theoretical frameworks. Further investigation is needed to fully understand these complex dynamics.

This study explores the effect of different leadership styles on employee motivation and satisfaction in selected healthcare institutions in Rivers State, Nigeria. The research examines eight leadership styles: transformational, democratic, autocratic, laissez-faire, transactional, coaching, servant, and bureaucratic leadership. Using a cross-sectional research design, data was collected from healthcare professionals, including doctors, nurses, and administrative staff, through a structured questionnaire. The study employed stratified random sampling to ensure representation from various roles across the institutions. The data was analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics, including regression and correlation analyses. The findings reveal that transformational, democratic, coaching, and servant leadership styles have a strong positive impact on both employee motivation and satisfaction. These leadership approaches foster environments of trust, empowerment, and personal growth, contributing to higher levels of employee engagement and morale. In contrast, autocratic, laissez-faire, and bureaucratic leadership styles negatively affect employee motivation and satisfaction, with bureaucratic leadership showing the weakest negative impact. Transactional leadership, while useful for achieving short-term goals, was found to have limited effects on long-term employee motivation and satisfaction. Based on these findings, the study recommends that healthcare institutions focus on cultivating transformational, democratic, coaching, and servant leadership qualities to improve employee outcomes. It also suggests minimizing the use of autocratic, laissez-faire, and bureaucratic leadership approaches, except in specific contexts that require them. The results highlight the importance of adaptive, people-centered leadership in enhancing employee satisfaction, motivation, and overall organizational performance in the healthcare sector. Keywords: Leadership style, Employee motivation, Employee satisfaction, Healthcare institutions, Transformational leadership.

Human Resources (HR) is a key asset in driving organizational success across sectors. Improving HR quality is essential for enhancing employee performance, which reflects an individual’s ability to meet work targets effectively and sustainably through competence, responsibility, adaptability, and contributions to organizational goals. This study aims to examine the influence of work motivation and work discipline on employee performance, with job satisfaction as a mediating variable in the People’s Welfare (Kesra) Section of the Manokwari Regency Regional Secretariat. The research involved 32 honorary employees, using a saturated sampling method. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling - Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results show that work motivation positively and significantly affects both job satisfaction and employee performance. Work discipline positively affects performance, though the effect is not significant, while it significantly affects job satisfaction. Job satisfaction significantly impacts employee performance and partially mediates the relationship between work motivation and performance, but not between work discipline and performance. To enhance performance in the Kesra Section, efforts should focus on boosting motivation and discipline through recognition programs, training, and consistent rule enforcement. Additionally, fostering a supportive work environment is crucial, given job satisfaction’s mediating role in improving performance outcomes. These strategies can lead to sustainable improvements in employee performance
