Employee engagement among Generation Z in tourism businesses is essential as they enter the workforce. This study examines how information technology utilization, organizational culture, and servant leadership influence employee engagement among Generation Z in Jakarta's tourism sector. It also explores the mediating role of servant leadership in these relationships. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 200 respondents through purposive sampling.

The results indicate that information technology utilization, organizational culture, and servant leadership positively impact employee engagement. Additionally, servant leadership mediates the relationship between information technology utilization, organizational culture, and employee engagement. This study contributes to employee engagement theory by emphasizing the psychological conditions necessary for full engagement.
