Findings – The empirical results demonstrate that both transformational leadership and organizational culture exert significant positive influences on sustainable employee performance. Additionally, job satisfaction was found to partially mediate the relationship between transformational leadership, organizational culture, and sustainable performance, highlighting the pivotal role of employee satisfaction in achieving long-term organizational outcomes.
