Using quantitative research design, data were collected from 100 university employees via a structured questionnaire. Correlation and regression analyses were conducted using SPSS. Findings indicate that all three factors—administrator attitude, organizational culture, and personal problems—significantly influence employee performance. The study provides recommendations for improving administrative practices, fostering a supportive organizational culture, and addressing employees’ personal challenges to enhance performance.
