Abstract

The rapid growth of startups in Medan City offers significant opportunities for Generation Z to enter the workforce. However, many startups face challenges in optimizing performance due to limited understanding of Gen Z’s unique work styles and preferences. This study examines the influence of Gen Z’s work style and preferences on performance, with organizational culture as a moderating variable, using a quantitative approach through Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The study surveyed 160 Gen Z employees from various startups in Medan. Results show that work style positively and significantly impacts performance. A flexible, collaborative, and tech-oriented approach enhances task completion. Preferences such as work-life balance, technology use, learning opportunities, and meaningful work also improve performance by increasing engagement and productivity. Moderation analysis reveals that organizational culture negatively moderates the effect of work style on performance—rigid, procedural cultures reduce the benefits of supportive work styles. Conversely, organizational culture positively moderates the influence of preferences on performance. Cultures that value flexibility, collaboration, and innovation strengthen the impact of Gen Z’s preferences. This research supports the Person-Environment Fit and Self-Determination Theory, offering practical insights for startup leaders. Aligning organizational culture and work styles with the values of Generation Z can enhance performance, productivity, and long-term success in the digital era.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of study balance, career balance, and personal life balance on academic achievement in married Master's and Doctoral Program students of the Faculty of Economics and Business, University of North Sumatra (FEB USU), with academic motivation as a mediating variable. The research population is all students of the Master of Management Science Program FEB USU in 2025, which totals 349 students. This study is focused on 141 married students with a sampling technique using total sampling. The research method used is a quantitative approach with the type of associative research. Data were collected through questionnaire distribution and analyzed using the Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results of the study showed that study balance had a positive but not significant effect on academic achievement. On the other hand, career balance and personal life balance have a positive and significant effect on academic achievement. These three dimensions of balance have also been shown to have a positive and significant effect on academic motivation. Academic motivation then has a positive and significant effect on academic achievement and is able to mediate the influence of study balance, career balance, and personal life balance on academic achievement. Academic motivation fully mediates the influence of study balance on academic achievement because its direct influence is not significant, but becomes significant through indirect channels.
