Many have expected that performance management will enhance the motivation of public employees. However, studies have reported that the motivational effect was minimal. This study examines whether the motivational impact can be enhanced by exerting transformational and transactional leadership. The analysis of the 2013 Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey reveals that while transformational leadership has a positive main effect on motivation, transactional leadership did not do so. As for moderator analysis, it indicates that transactional leadership has a positive moderating effect on the relationship between performance management on motivation, while transformational leadership does not. These results indicate that leadership makes significant differences in the motivational effect of performance management and that transactional leadership and transformational leadership influence worker motivation in distinctive ways. Hence, managers need to strike a balance between exerting transformational and transactional leadership to motivate people effectively in the era of performance management.

绩效管理的动机效应：领导力很重要吗？

许多人期望绩效管理将增强公共雇员的动力。但是，研究报告说，激励作用很小。这项研究探讨了通过施加变革型和交易型领导是否可以增强动机影响。对《 2013年联邦雇员观点调查》的分析表明，尽管变革型领导对动机具有积极的主要影响，但交易型领导却没有。至于主持人分析，它表明交易型领导对绩效管理与动机之间的关系具有积极的调节作用，而变革型领导则没有。这些结果表明，领导者在绩效管理的激励效果上有显着差异，而交易型领导和变革型领导以独特的方式影响着员工的激励。因此，管理人员需要在绩效管理和变革型领导之间取得平衡，以有效地激励员工。
