Findings – The results indicate that Agile Leadership and Intrinsic Motivation have a significant positive effect on both OCB and Employee Performance. Furthermore, OCB significantly mediates the relationship between Agile Leadership, Intrinsic Motivation, and Employee Performance.
Novelty/value – This study contributes to the literature by integrating Agile Leadership, Intrinsic Motivation, and OCB in a public sector context. It emphasizes the role of adaptive leadership and intrinsic drive in enhancing discretionary work behaviors and improving performance in bureaucratic institutions.
