Abstract

This study investigates how work-life balance, green transformational leadership, and learning organization influence sustainable employee performance, with job satisfaction as a mediating factor, in a management consulting company. The research involved 154 consultants out of a population of 250, using SEM-PLS analysis with Smart PLS (Version 4). The results show that work-life balance and learning organization significantly improve sustainable employee performance, while green transformational leadership does not have a direct effect. However, all three factors positively influence job satisfaction, which in turn helps improve sustainable performance. Job satisfaction is confirmed as a key mediator in these relationships. The study suggests that companies should prioritize work-life balance, green leadership, and continuous learning to boost employee satisfaction and long-term performance. These findings offer valuable insights for both theory and practice in managing sustainable employee performance.
