Abstrak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji peran work meaning sebagai mediator hubungan antara transformational leadership dan job performance. Sampel dari penelitian berjumlah 65 partisipan yang sudah bekerja di perusahaan swasta (private organization) di Indonesia. Transformational leadership diukur dengan mengadaptasi skala Transformational Leadership Scale; work meaning diukur dengan The Work and Meaning Inventory (WAMI); sedangkan job performance diukur dengan mengadaptasi item dari skala Individual Work Performance Questionnaire. Berdasarkan hasil analisis dengan menggunakan regresi, didapatkan hasil bahwa transformational leadership berperan memprediksi job performance. Semakin individu mempersepsikan bahwa pemimpin memiliki transformational leadership, semakin baik job performance yang ditampilkan. Berdasarkan regression mediation analysis, work meaning berperan sebagai mediator peran transformational leadership terhadap job performance. Implementasi dari hasil penelitian adalah memberikan pemahaman bahwa faktor penting dalam memprediksi job performance adalah work meaning yang dimiliki oleh pegawai. Abstract. This study aims to examine the role of work meaning as a mediator of the relationship between transformational leadership and job performance. The sample of the study consisted of 65 participants who were employed in private organisations in Indonesia. Transformational leadership was measured by adapting the Transformational Leadership Scale; work meaning was measured by The Work and Meaning Inventory (WAMI); while job performance was measured by adapting items from the Individual Work Performance Questionaire scale. Based on the results of analysis using regression, the results show that transformational leadership plays a role in predicting job performance. The more individuals perceive that the leader has transformational leadership, the better job performance is displayed. Based on regression mediation analysis, work meaning acts as a mediator of the role of transformational leadership on job performance. The implementation of the research results is to provide an understanding that an important factor in predicting job performance is the work meaning owned by employees.Downloads
