The relationship between training, work attitudes, leadership and job performance
description The main aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between training, work attitudes, and leadership with job performance. This study was conducted in Universiti Utara Malaysia with UUM College of Arts and Sciences, UUM College of Business, and UUM College of Law, Government and International Studies, Kedah, Malaysia. The sample of this study consists of 152 respondents from the UUM administrative department. Data were collected through questionnaires survey. The data were analyzed using various statistical techniques such as reliability analysis, descriptive analysis, correlation analysis (Pearson Correlation Analysis) and regression analysis (Multiple Regression Analysis). The analyses were carried out via Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 22.0 version for Windows. Based on the regression results, there was clear indication that the independent variable (leadership) was negatively correlated with the dependent variable (job performance). Meanwhile, work attitudes were positively correlated with job performance. The results also indicated that training has no relationship to job performance.
