The Influence of Green Leadership in Intelligence Functions Mediated by Organizational Culture on Improving Job Performance of the Jayakarta Military Regional Command

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of green leadership within intelligence functions, mediated by organizational culture, on improving job performance at the Jayakarta Military Regional Command. The research background emphasizes the importance of adaptive, ethical, and sustainability-oriented leadership in intelligence units operating amid dynamic threats, task confidentiality, and professional demands. A strong organizational culture is viewed as capable of strengthening investigative intelligence behavior and enhancing personnel performance. The study employs a quantitative approach with an explanatory research design. Data were collected through standardized questionnaires administered to leadership elements, support staff, and operational personnel, complemented by Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and limited interviews as operational checking. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results indicate that all constructs demonstrate high reliability and adequate validity. Empirically, investigative intelligence behavior has a strong influence on organizational culture and job performance, with organizational culture proven to be a significant mediating variable. The findings confirm that green leadership is able to foster a harmonious, ethical, and conducive organizational culture that enhances soldiers’ performance. The study concludes that green leadership and organizational culture are strategic determinants in improving the performance of intelligence personnel at Kodam Jaya. Field findings also highlight the need to strengthen human resources through the placement of officers with competencies in information technology, cyber, and legal fields. The research scope, which is limited to the Jakarta region, provides opportunities for further studies in other intelligence units.
