Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji dan memahami pengaruh transformational leadership terhadap individual work performance pada pekerja milenial dengan mempertimbangkan pengaruh mediasi dari career adaptability, perceived career success, dan job embeddedness. Data penelitian dikumpulkan dengan menggunakan media kuesioner daring dari 331 pekerja milenial di seluruh Indonesia dengan masa kerja di tempat kerja nya saat ini minimal satu tahun. Pengolahan data dilakukan dengan metode structural equation modeling (SEM) yang menunjukkan hasil bahwa transformational leadership tidak memiliki hubungan langsung terhadap individual work performance, namun memiliki pengaruh tidak langsung dengan individual work performance melalui mediasi dari career adaptability, perceived career success, dan job embeddedness. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa transformational leadership saja tidak cukup untuk meningkatkan individual work performance dari pekerja milenial. Pekerja milenial perlu memiliki tingkat career adaptabilityy, perceived career success, dan job embeddedness yang cukup untuk dapat terdorong dalam meningkatkan individual work performance nya.
This study aims to discuss and understand the effect of transformational leadership on individual work performance, taking into account the mediating role of career adaptability, perceived career success, and job embeddedness. The data were collected using an online questionnaire from 331 millennial workers who have worked for at least one year in their current workplace throughout Indonesia. Data analyzed using the structural equation modeling (SEM) method which showed that transformational leadership doesn’t have a direct relationship with individual work performance, but have an indirect effect on individual work performance via the mediation of career adaptability, perceived career success, and job embeddedness. This study indicates that transformational leadership is not enough to improve the individual work performance of millennial workers. Millennial workers need to have a sufficient level of career adaptability, perceived career success, and job embeddedness to be encouraged to improve their individual work performance.
