    Abstract: This study offers an empirical study of the role
of work motivation in mediating the effect of
education-training and leadership style on the
performance of Ministry of Education employees in
Timor-Leste. Data were obtained from 86 employees as
samples through questionnaires. We applied the
SEM-PLS to analyze the proposed relationship model.
Empirical results show that work motivation mediates the
influence of leadership style on employee performance
but not for education-training. The results can provide
valuable insight for public service management.
