The Effect of Leadership Behaviour on Knowledge Management Practices at the PT Power Plant of East Java

A leader is a person whose job is to lead, while leadership is a talent or
trait that must be possessed by a leader. In the definition above it can be
said that the leader has staff or members to lead. The purpose of this
study is to test and analyse the influence of transformational leadership
and transactional knowledge management on organisational culture as
a moderator variable. Of the 180 respondents, 90 perfectly met the
criteria, 30 were disabled respondents and 60 were late returning. SPPS
software and Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA) statistical analysis
techniques were used to test the final sample of 90 respondents. Suitable
leadership characteristics for employees at the PT Power Plant of East
Java Power Plant include training, educating, improving, influencing,
directing and motivating employees to do the best for their customers.
Further, leaders should listen to subordinates and emphasise two-way
personal communication. One advantage that is not yet utilised
proficiently is the knowledge management inherent in an organisation
and in its members. Organisations need to see knowledge as a valuable
and strategic source for staying competitive, and must explicitly manage
their resources and intellectual abilities.
