Abstract:
Employee performance measures how human resources in a company have played a role or not in the organization's progress. The potential of human resources who perform well determines the company's success. To achieve the best performance, managing human resources directed through various policies that can adjust the common interests between employees and the company is undoubtedly necessary. This research was motivated by the problem that there are still employees from one of the SOE companies whose performance decreased from the target work results in the previous year and was not even achieved for the last four years. Given the contribution of SOE companies to a country's economy, employee performance is an essential focus for management to evaluate factors that can help the success rate of performance each year. This study aims to test and analyze the effect of training and competence on the performance of achieving the target of the Asset Management Center Division of the SOE company with employee motivation as a mediating variable. This type of research is quantitative research with a causal research design. The sample in this study was the staff of the Asset Management Center Division of the SOE company, using a saturated sample used by 102 employees as a sample. Data analysis using SEM-PLS version 4.0. The results of this study stated that training does not directly encourage the achievement of employee performance. However, training and competence were found to promote the achievement of employee motivation and performance.
