ABSTRACT
Employees who have a high level of work engagement will show their best performance; this is because these employees enjoy the work they do. When employees are attached to a company, employees have an awareness of the business. The main objective of this research is to analyze the influence of transformational leadership and organizational climate on employee engagement. The research methods include library and field research designs with a quantitative approach. The number of samples analyzed was 140 employees. This study uses a research instrument test consisting of validity and reliability tests. The quantitative analysis consists of a normality test, regression test, hypothesis test, correlation test, and coefficient of determination. The results of the data analysis conclude that transformational leadership, organizational climate, and employee engagement positively and significantly influence innovative work behavior. The results of further research confirm that transformational leadership and organizational climate significantly affect employee engagement. The research conclusion states that by combining transformational leadership and a positive organizational climate, organizations can create an environment where employees feel encouraged to give their best and feel that their contributions positively impact the organization's success. High employee engagement contributes to better productivity, retention, and continued organizational success.
