 Abstract

Civil servants play a vital role in government organizations, but their performance is often not optimal due to leadership weaknesses. One factor affecting performance is the lack of effective leadership in influencing employees. This study investigates how authentic leadership influences authentic followership and its impact on improving civil servant performance. A quantitative method was applied, with civil servants from the Government of Sidoarjo Regency, East Java, Indonesia, as respondents. The sample was selected randomly, and data was collected using the Authentic Leadership Inventory (ALI) and Authentic Followership Scale (AFS). Participants completed these instruments, and the data was analyzed through linear regression using JASP software version 0.18.3.0. The results show that authentic leadership significantly improves authentic followership, which, in turn, enhances civil servant performance. Authentic followership positively impacts both individual and organizational outcomes. The findings suggest that strengthening authentic leadership within government organizations can improve civil servant performance. This study contributes to the understanding of how authentic leadership promotes better performance through its influence on followership.
