The Influence of Talent Retention, Work Motivation, and Leadership Support on Civil Servants' Performance in the Madiun City Government
Main Article Content
Abstract
Improving civil servant performance is important for effective local government administration. This study examined the individual and joint associations of talent retention, work motivation, and leadership support with employee performance in the Madiun City Government and identified the strongest predictor among these variables. A quantitative survey approach was employed. The eligible population comprised 1,341 civil servants, and a sample size of 93 respondents was determined using Slovin’s formula with a 10% margin of error. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire administered using Google Forms and analyzed using multiple linear regression in IBM SPSS. Work motivation showed a positive, statistically significant association with employee performance, whereas talent retention and leadership support showed no statistically significant independent associations. The overall regression model was statistically significant, with work motivation emerging as the strongest predictor. These findings highlight the relevance of work motivation to civil servant performance and provide context-specific evidence to inform human resource management in local government. The study suggests prioritizing strategies that strengthen work motivation as part of efforts to improve employee performance and support effective public administration.
