Pengaruh Transformational Leadership Terhadap Teacher Performance Pada Sekolah Kristen di Surabaya dan Sidoarjo Dengan School Climate Sebagai Variabel Mediasi

The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of Transformational Leadership and School Climate on Teacher Performance. The survey was conducted on teachers from five Christian high schools located in Surabaya and Sidoarjo. The sample was selected by convenience where as many as 103 teachers were willing to participate in the survey conducted. Using the SEM-PLS statistical technique to process the collected primary data, the results showed that transformational leadership had a direct, positive and significant effect on school climate but had no significant effect on teacher performance. Furthermore, school climate has a direct, positive and significant effect on teacher performance. Whats interesting is that transformational leadership has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance when mediated by school climate. Thus, school climate is a perfect mediating variable in which transformational leadership applied by school leaders will have a significant effect on teacher performance only when the school climate is also considered positive.
