THE INFLUENCE OF SCHOOL PRINCIPALS' TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP, ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE, ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT ON THE PERFORMANCE OF PUBLIC PRIMARY EDUCATIONAL TEACHERS IN KAPUAS BARAT DISTRICT

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine how the organizational commitment, organizational climate, and transformational leadership of the principal affect teacher performance both directly and indirectly. This is a quantitative, explanatory study that uses testing hypotheses as its methodology. A total of 252 teachers comprised the research population, and 159 of them were selected through random selection techniques to serve as research samples. Questionnaires are used for data collecting, while descriptive analysis, multiple linear regression analysis, classical assumption tests, and path analysis are used for data analysis. The results of this research show that the variable regression value is a positive number, such as the regression coefficient of the principal's transformational leadership variable on the teacher performance variable (X1-Y) of 0.418, the regression coefficient of the principal's transformational leadership variable on the organizational commitment variable (X1-Z) of 0.335, The regression coefficient of the organizational climate variable on the teacher performance variable (X2-Y) is 0.179, the regression coefficient of the organizational climate variable on organizational commitment (X2-Z) is 0.637, the regression coefficient of the organizational commitment variable on the teacher performance variable (Z-Y) is 0.271, the regression coefficient the principal's transformational leadership through organizational commitment to teacher performance (X1-Z-Y) is 0.090 and the regression coefficient of organizational climate through organizational commitment to teacher performance (X2-Z-Y) is 0.172. The study's findings indicate that there is a strong direct relationship between the principal's transformational leadership variables, organizational climate, and organizational commitment, and that there is a strong indirect relationship between the principal's transformational leadership and organizational commitment, as well as a significant relationship between the organization's climate and organizational commitment and teacher performance.
