The Influence of Training and Development Programs, Job Autonomy, and Organizational Culture on Employee Job Satisfaction and Performance

Abstract

This research explores the intricate relationships between training and development programs, job autonomy, organizational culture, and employee outcomes, with a specific focus on the mediating role of job satisfaction. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, integrating quantitative analysis using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with qualitative insights gathered from interviews and focus group discussions. The results highlight the positive impact of effective training programs, job autonomy, and a supportive organizational culture on job satisfaction levels among employees. Job satisfaction emerges as a crucial mediator, translating these organizational factors into improved performance, motivation, and overall well-being. The findings underscore the importance of prioritizing strategies that enhance job satisfaction to foster a more engaged and productive workforce, ultimately contributing to organizational success
