Companies in their operations always need qualified human resources that can work well. It is stated in several
theories that Human Resources are the main asset in determining the success of a company in achieving its
business activities (Halcomb, E and Smyth, 2018). Without going through the role of appropriate human
resources, the company's goals will be difficult to achieve, because the main motor as the manager and driving
force of the company is these resources. This makes human resources an important indicator in the company's
business activities to achieve its goals effectively and efficiently (Kim, H and Kim, K 2019). According to
Butum, there is an important factor in the success of a business such as a skilled workforce who is able to
produce satisfying work results (Butum, L, 2017). Employees are an important factor in an organization on a
small or large scale, because quality employees will encourage organizational performance to be better
(Fadlurrahman et al, 2021). Employees as workers in the company need to improve their performance so that
they can make a positive contribution to the company. In fact, not every employee has the abilities and skills the
same with the expectations of companies that require competency. This is so that employees can carry out their
works in consent with the responsibilities that are given; there are a few factor that can affect the achievement
and work results of employees. From this, it can require serious management in handling human resources; it
does not become one of the serious obstacles in the company (Kim, Y and Seo, S 2016).

Another important factor, as stated by Sharma, S and Taneja (2018) is performance which is the result of quality
and quantity work achieved which an employee who has been performed the works according to the
responsibilities that are given. Successful performance is achieved when an employee has carried out his assigned
duties build upon skills, experiences, sincerities, and times. It is realized that there are still many companies that
have not been able to fulfill the importance of improving employee performance (Choudhary, N and Naqshbandi,
2017; Maria et al., 2020; Bulut, 2020; Chena et al., 2020; Makhalima, 2020). Various cases regarding employee
performance are often found, such as what happened to "PT.B" Toserba Bandung. "PT.B" Toserba is a modern
retail company in Indonesia with the format of a supermarket, department store and food court. Furthermore,
"PT.B" Toserba Bandung is a branch of "PT.B" department store which has 130 employees. In this study,
observations which were at the same time a sample were carried out on 60 employees and information was
obtained that their job satisfaction could not be said to be adequate, this is explained more in Table 1:

Job Satisfaction Job
Satisfaction will always be the main goal for employees who work, this is because everyone who works wants to
get job satisfaction in the workplace. Job satisfaction of employees is individualist, because each employee will
get various levels of satisfaction, and depend on the values that prevail in each employee (Temesgen, K and
Aycheh, M, 2018). The more aspects of work that are in accordance with individual desires, the higher the
satisfaction obtained (Akgunduz Y and Kizilcalioglu, 2018). Employee satisfaction will vary from person to
person and depends on the level of pleasure employees feel about their role in their work in the organization or
workplace. This job satisfaction can include the level of satisfaction of employees that they can be rewarded
accordingly from various aspects of the work situation carried out from the organization where they work.
According to Mehra, P and Nickerson, C (2019) the definition of job satisfaction is a good or bad emotional state
of employees in viewing their work. According to Mehra (2019), there are five factors that can affect job
satisfaction, namely fulfillment of needs, differences, value achievement, justice and genetic components.
Bohlander, S (2013) provides dimensions that can measure job satisfaction, namely the job itself, salary,
promotion, supervision and co-workers. Research (Akgunduz, Y., Kizilcalioglu, G., & Ceylin, SS (2018), states
that job satisfaction buffer affects the performance of employees.

behavior where the result of the combination of philosophy, skills, and attitudes are often applied by a leader
when he tries to influence the performance of his subordinates, this was stated by (Xie, Y and Xue, W , 2018).
The style or style of leadership (leadership style) will greatly affect the effectiveness of the leader r, S (2013),

Referring to table 6, the results obtained in the calculation shows that leadership style and job satisfaction affect
performance by a constant value of 0.216. So in this case, if job satisfaction and leadership style increase,
performance will also increase. As for the coefficient b1 = 0.568 and the variable coefficient b2 = 0.352, it means
that if the leadership style increases and job satisfaction increases, both of these will also have an effect on
increasing performance by their respective coefficients.

shows that there is an influence that the magnitude of leadership style and job satisfaction on employee
performance contributes 40.9%, and for other factors that are not examined, the effect is 51.9%.

Hypothesis Test Results
The following table for hypothesis test results:

                                                                    ANOVAa

Paying attention to table 9, the calculated F value is 11.235, which means that the results are different from the F
table which is 3.16 (11.235> 3.16). The table also shows a significance value of 0.000, meaning that this value is
0.05 smaller. Mathematically, the equation can be written (0.000 < 0.05). This means that employee performance
is jointly influenced by leadership style and job satisfaction which have a significant effect.

                                             V.       CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
