The research method used in this study is a quantitative research method with a descriptive and verification approach. Data collection techniques in this study are interviews, questionnaires, and observations with a population of 110 employees. The sampling technique used in this study is a non-probability sampling technique with purposive sampling. The analytical tool in this study is SmartPLS 4 for verification analysis. Testing of measurement models or outer models in this study is convergent validity, discriminant validity, Average Variance Extracted (AVE), composite reliability, Cronbach alpha. The structural model or inner models tested in this study were the coefficient of determination (R2) and predictive relevance (Q2). The results of this study indicate that leadership, motivation, and competence have a positive and significant effect on employee performance, both partially and simultaneously, with an influence of 84.2%, and the remaining 15.8% is influenced by other variables not examined in this study.
