The results of multiple linear regression analysis obtained a regression equation, namely: Y = 2.048 + 0.583x1 + 0.294X2 + 0.361X3 + 0.045X4. The correlation coefficient (R) value of 0.755 means that the directive leadership style (X1), supportive leadership (X2), participative leadership (X3), achievement-oriented leadership (X4) shows a strong relationship with the Employee Performance variable (Y). The coefficient value (Adjusted R²) of 0.502 means that the variables of directive leadership style (X1), supportive leadership (X2), participative leadership (X3), achievement-oriented leadership (X4) contribute to employee performance (Y) at the Department of Education and Culture by 50.2%, while the remainder is contributed by other factors not studied by (100-50.2)% = 48.2%. The simultaneous results (F test) show that the F count value > F table (8.297 > 2.76) so it can be concluded that the variables of directive Leadership style (X1), Supportive Leadership (X2), Participative Leadership (X3), Achievement-oriented Leadership (X4) have an effect on Employee Performance (Y) at the Paser Regency Education and Culture Office. Furthermore, the results of the partial test (t test) show that the t count value of Variable (X) that has a significant effect is the directive Leadership style (X1) because t count > t table (3.756 > 2.05954). So that Directive Leadership (X1) has a dominant effect on Employee Performance (Y) at the Paser Regency Education and Culture Office.
