Rizki Sukma Nugraha, Ibnu Khajar

Abstract


Abstract.This study aims to analyze the effect of transformational leadership on personnel performance, and to test the mediating role of trust in the leader in the relationship at the West Java Regional Police Human Resources Bureau. The background of this study is the importance of a leadership style that is able to build trust in order to improve the effectiveness of police personnel work amidst the dynamics of organizational challenges and demands of public service. This study uses a quantitative approach with an explanatory research method. The entire population of 201 personnel was sampled through a census technique. Data were collected through a closed questionnaire and analyzed using the Partial Least Square (PLS) method. The results of the study indicate that transformational leadership has a positive and significant effect on personnel performance and trust in leaders. Trust in leaders also has a significant positive effect on personnel performance. In addition, trust in leaders is proven to be a significant mediating variable in the relationship between transformational leadership and performance. The R-square value shows that the model has high explanatory power. These findings emphasize the importance of strengthening transformational leadership that includes idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individual attention, which can build trust and have an impact on improving personnel performance. The practical implication of this study is the need to develop organizational policies that encourage transformational leadership styles and build a work culture based on trust.
