Systematic Literature Review: The Impact of Leadership Style, Work Motivation, and Job Satisfaction on Employee Performance in the Digital Era

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of leadership style, work motivation, and job satisfaction on employee performance in modern organizations, especially within the context of digital transformation. The research uses a systematic literature review approach to analyze previous studies from 2015 to 2025. The findings indicate that transformational leadership, work motivation, and job satisfaction significantly influence employee performance. Transformational leadership fosters a motivating environment that enhances job satisfaction, which in turn improves employee performance. The study provides practical insights for organizations seeking to optimize performance in the digital age by focusing on leadership practices and employee well-being. The results contribute to the development of human resource management theories and provide guidance for future educational and managerial practices.
