Abstract

When comparing actual outputs of an organization to its expected results, aims, and objectives, this is referred to as organizational performance (Abuzarqa, 2019; Al Khajeh, 2018). Therefore, this study is to determine the impact of organizational culture and leadership styles on the performance of Jordanian government organizations. The total number of respondents in this survey was 168, and they were divided into Jordanian government employees. The quantitative analysis test, which includes the validity test, reliability test, classic assumptions test, and hypothesis test, is used in the data analysis process. Organizational culture and leadership styles are independent variables in this study. Organizations’ performance is the dependent variable in this study. The findings of this study reveal that organizational culture and leadership styles have a significant or minor impact on the performance of Jordanian public organizations. The two independent variables have a significant point that supports the hypothesis. As a result, it is widely assumed that organizational culture and leadership styles have an impact on the functioning of Jordanian government organizations. Future studies may examine managerial support as a moderating variable between organizational culture and leadership styles and performance.
