"Dalam rangka mencapai tujuan, pimpinan organisasi selalu berusaha mengelola SDM dan potensi yang dimilikinya secara optimal, namun upaya mengelola SDM tersebut bukanlah hal yang mudah, karena tidak semua pimpinan memiliki dan memahami strategi menggerakan bawahan, sehingga yang timbul kemudian adalah hal-hal yang kontraproduktif dan benturan antara kepentingan organisasi dengan kepentingan pegawainya. Sering terjadi pula, karena kurangnya sosialisasi dan pendekatan kepada pegawai mengenai tujuan organisasi, maka tercapainya tujuan organisasi dianggap sebagai prestasi pimpinan dan bukan tanggungjawab seluruh pegawai organisasi tersebut.

In the attainment of organizational goals, the management always attempted to manage its human resources and all its potentials optimally. However, it was not an easy task because not all management possessed and understood the strategies to actuate their subordinates. Instead they caused such problems as counterproductive acts, and conflicts of interests between those of the organization and those of the individual employees. This was often caused by the lack of communication and approach to the employees about the organizational goals. This resulted in the employees having false perceptions towards the organizational goals achievement, i.e. they thought that it only benefitted the management not them. This false perceptions caused them to deny their responsibility to achieve the organizational goals.Several central variables that really influenced the employees' performance, i.e. amongst others were leadership styles or behaviours, motivation and organizational culture either individually or simulatenously they could influence the employees' performance.The key issues researched were related with as to whether such free variables as leadership styles, motivation and organizational culture could influence their employees' performance either individually or simultaneously.
