This research aims to analyze the influence of organizational culture on employee performance with collectivism as a mediating variable at the Darul Fikri Foundation in Makassar. The research approach uses a quantitative method with regression-based data analysis techniques and mediation tests to examine the direct and indirect relationships between variables.
