Abstract

This study uses organizational culture as a mediator to examine the relationship between employee performance and innovative technology use and retention. 125 business executives, including HR Division Line Managers and Operations Directors from 52 North Sumatra plantation enterprises, participated in this study as respondents. Primary data or information gathered straight from the research location are sources of information used in studies. Furthermore, information from publications and articles that is ancillary to the research is also incorporated. In this study, the analytical techniques of Smart PLS and Statistical Product and Service Solution (SPSS) are employed. As methods for gathering data, documentation studies, questionnaires, and observation are used. The study's findings demonstrate how corporate culture affects both the deployment of cutting-edge technology to improve worker performance and staff retention. staff performance has a R Square value of 0.872, indicating that exogenous variables such as business culture, innovative technology utilization, and staff retention can all be used to explain their respective effects. This demonstrates that innovative technology, corporate culture, and staff retention have all contributed to the achievement of 87.2% of employee performance in North Sumatra's plantation enterprises.
