Abstract
The purpose of this research is to empirically study the effects of principal leadership and teacher competency on teacher performance, mediated by motivation. The research design used was a Structural Equation Modelling with AMOS 22. The unit of analysis in this study was 2,668 Public Intermediate School Teachers in the city of Palembang, South Sumatera Province, Indonesia. The data were gathered through face to face distribution by the researcher. The data collection method was purposive sampling. The total respondents under this study were 340 teachers. This research revealed that all exogenous variables: Principal Leadership, Teacher Competency, and Work Motivation have a positive effect on public intermediate school teacher performance. Teacher work motivation is not a mediating variable in this model. This research has also given a theoretical contribution towards Fishbein and Ajzen theory which is also known as a reasoned-action theory. This research has also provided an academic input towards David Mc Cleland Need Achievement theory which is also known as the need for achievement, affiliation, and power.
