Pengaruh Gaya Kepemimpinan Karismatik, Openness To Experience dan Conscientiousness terhadap Kinerja Pegawai

Abstract

The performance of an effective employee arises because of the work spirit that drives him. In an organization it is the responsibility of a leader to encourage and direct his subordinates in order to provide optimal and quality work results. Effective leadership is the key to achieving excellence in the organization. Apart from the leadership component, other factors that influence individual performance are psychological factors, one of which is personality. This study aims to see and analyze the influence of charismatic leadership style and big five personality on employee performance. The subjects in this study were employees of the Ministry of Religion of North Sumatra, amounting to 150 people. The measuring instrument used in this study is the employee performance scale, the leadership questionnaire scale, and the big five personality scale (NEO-P-IR). The data obtained were then processed using multiple regression analysis. The results showed that the charismatic leadership style and big five personality simultaneously had a positive effect on employee performance with a value of Fcount ≥ Ftable (10.537 ≥ 2.666) and a significance value of 0.000 ≤ 0.05. Charismatic leadership style is a dominant predictor in improving employee performance. The implication of this study shows that to improve employee performance, it can be improved with charismatic leadership style variables and big five personality (openness to experience and consciousness) in the organization.
