Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of competency development on job satisfaction and organizational commitment in improving employee performance in Global Conservation Derawan Archipelago. In a non-profit organization focused on environmental conservation, human resources are a vital asset to achieve the mission of conservation. This study uses a quantitative approach with the Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) method to test the relationship between variables. Data was collected through a questionnaire to 43 respondents who were Global Conservation employees. The results of the study show that competency development has a positive effect on job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Job satisfaction has been shown to be a mediating variable that strengthens the relationship between competency development and employee performance. In addition, organizational commitment plays a significant role in improving performance, showing that employees' emotional attachment and moral responsibility to the organization drive the achievement of optimal work outcomes. These findings indicate that effective competency development strategies can create a conducive work environment, increase satisfaction, and strengthen employee loyalty. The practical implications of this study recommend that organizations strengthen training and development programs to improve the quality of human resources in supporting the success of conservation missionsh.
