Exploring the impact of organizational behavior on employee performance in Saudi universities

Abstract

This study examines how organizational behavior affects employee performance. We gathered quantitative data using a questionnaire from 88 employees working at Saudi universities. The study focused on four main aspects of organizational behavior: direction, motivation, bias, administrative leadership, and organizational culture. Employee performance, measured by efficiency, served as the dependent variable in this study. Results showing P-values below 0.01 indicate significant positive impacts of motivation, bias, and organizational culture on employee performance. In contrast, direction and administrative leadership showed minimal influence on performance. This research addresses a gap in empirical studies on organizational behavior in the workplace and provides valuable evidence of how organizational behavior links to employee performance. We used simple regression analysis to demonstrate this relationship, offering a significant methodological contribution to understanding these dynamics. The findings underscore the importance of promoting a motivational and inclusive organizational culture to improve employee performance, specifically within Saudi universities.
