This research aims to analyze the direct relationship between leadership, organizational culture on performance, and to analyze the indirect relationship that is mediated by work motivation. The study used a quantitative approach, namely explanatory research, using a sample of 110 research that were taken randomly from certified teachers at junior high schools in Malang Regency. The data were collected using a questionnaire with a 5 point Likert scale, while the data analysis technique used Path Analysis. The research findings showed that performance was influenced by leadership and work motivation, but the leadership was not proven to affect work motivation. Another research finding is that organizational culture does not significantly contribute to performance, but contributes to work motivation, work motivation only mediates the relationship between organizational culture and performance. The research implication is that to improve performance, effective leadership and work motivation are needed, further increasing work motivation can be achieved from strengthening organizational culture. The next researcher is suggested to test the role of leadership on organizational culture.

Data were analyzed using confirmatory data analysis and structured equations model and by means of AMOS (v.18) and SPSS (v.22) software. Findings: With respect to path coefficient (0.1) and significance level (0.788), the positive and significant relationship is not verified among performance of personnel and transformational leadership. Given path coefficient (0.84) and significant level (0.000), there is significant relationship among transformational leadership style and organizational culture. Similarly, there is direct and significant relationship among organizational culture and performance of personnel. Moreover, there is indirect and significant relationship among transformational leadership and performance of personnel by organizational culture.

Methodology: The respondents were selected randomly from the list of construction workers registered with the construction firms in Jordan. The selected respondents were given a self-administered questionnaire to attend at their own convenient time. The studies employed Structural Equation Modelling in IBM-SPSS-AMOS 24.0 to model and estimate the inter-relationships among the constructs in the study. Result: The results showed transformational leadership has a positive and significant influence on both employee commitment and employee performance. The results also indicated that employee commitment has a positive and significant influence on employee performance. More importantly, the study found that employee commitment partially mediates the relationship between transformational leadership style and employee performance. Applications: The results of his study highlighted the importance of employee commitment in generating their work performance, especially in the construction industry. Novelty/Originality: At present, the study on the mediating role of employee commitment in the relationship between transformational leadership style and employee performance is limited, especially in the construction industry where the employee commitment is extremely important to ensure the project can be delivered on schedule.

PurposeInnovation is the basic input to organizational endurance; therefore, the study of processes that support innovation should be of interest to practitioners and researchers alike. Consequently, there is increasing attention for the supplementary research examination of the influencing elements of innovativeness.Design/methodology/approachThe data were collected in 2018 using adapted questionnaires that were tested. The respondents were 446 employees of Pakistan Electric Power Company (PEPCO). Bivariate correlations and hierarchical regression were used for the data analysis.FindingsThe findings showed that the competing value framework (CVF) model of organizational culture may promote innovativeness that translates to the progress of PEPCO, which deserved barrier for everyone relying on the values made by the culture of the organization. The adhocracy culture is considered to be statistically suitable for the prediction of performance and enhancement of innovation in the organization. Based on the above findings, it may be deduced that innovation mediated the relationship between some particular types of organizational culture and performance.Practical implicationsThe CVF model provides a supportive framework for the development of procedures that promote innovation in the organization. The focus of the CVF model highlighted employees' behavior and function of organizational culture, which can restrain or stimulate performance. This study reported and developed a basis for an empirical model based on the CVF model.Originality/valueThis paper found that the CVF model and innovation are mega sources of innovation at PEPCO. This work should be of interest in the area of innovation and performance improvement. There are very few empirical research studies on the relationship between organizational culture, innovation and performance, specifically in the context of developing countries. This is one of the very few studies conducted to empirically examine the influence of CVF model on performance through the mediating role of innovation in PEPCO.

Diversity interventions and employee commitment in the public sector: The role of an inclusive organizational culture Diversity interventions and employee commitment in the public sector: The role of an inclusive organizational culture Previous research has shown that diversity interventions contribute to the commitment and retention of employees in the public sector. However, not much is known about possible mediating factors that explain this relationship. This study centres on the role of an inclusive organizational culture in the relationship between diversity interventions and commitment and retention of public sector employees. The results show that the relationship between interventions targeted at the organizational culture and commitment and retention of employees is indeed mediated by the inclusiveness of the organizational culture. This study confirms the relevance of targeting diversity interventions at the development of an inclusive organizational culture in order to maintain and effectively manage a diverse public sector workforce.
