Abstract

This study explores into the intricate factors shaping employee performance within Libyan public higher education institutions. Utilizing both empirical evidence and theoretical constructs, it pinpoints key influencers such as leadership approach, organizational ethos, employee welfare, training initiatives, job structuring, compensation strategies, and technological integration. Results underscore the essential role of supportive leadership, fostering a positive organizational climate, and prioritizing employee well-being in cultivating an environment conducive to optimal performance. Moreover, strategic job design, equitable compensation, and acknowledgment practices emerge as instrumental drivers of employee motivation and commitment. The research emphasizes the significance of investing in employee development to bolster skill acquisition and career advancement opportunities. Furthermore, embracing technological innovations is deemed essential for enhancing operational efficiency and promoting collaborative efforts among staff members. Implementation of these findings can catalyze the establishment of a culture characterized by excellence, engagement, and employee welfare, thereby fueling sustainable performance outcomes. This study makes a valuable contribution to existing literature by shedding light on the dynamics of employee performance within Libyan higher education settings and furnishing actionable insights for organizational leaders and policymakers.
