For data analysis purpose, SPSS is used for descriptive statistic and PLS applied for developing structural and measurement models.

Meanwhile, motivation has significant direct and indirect (through work environment) effect to the performance of employees. Both leadership and motivation, have significant direct effect on the work environment. Work environment also has direct effect significantly on the employee performance significantly.
