The Influence of Leadership, Placement and Training on Performance through Employee Involvement in BPSDM West Papua Province

Abstract

The performance of Civil Servants (PNS) in West Papua Province still faces significant challenges, especially in the context of effective human resource management. This study aims to analyze the influence of transformational leadership, employee placement, and training on employee performance through employee involvement at the Regional Human Resources Development Agency (BPSDM) of West Papua Province. This research uses a mixed method type of research with a descriptive approach. Data was collected through questionnaires, interviews, observations and document analysis. The research results show that employee involvement makes a positive contribution to employee performance, although transformational leadership, placement and training do not show a direct significant effect. Low employee engagement indicates the need for further intervention to increase motivation and job satisfaction. This research concludes that although leadership, placement, and training play an important role, the main focus must be given to increasing employee engagement to achieve optimal performance. Proposed recommendations include development programs, relevant training, more strategic employee placement, and the implementation of a more adaptive leadership style to increase employee engagement and performance in government environments. It is hoped that these findings can become a reference for human resource management policies in the public sector, especially in areas with similar challenges.
