Abstract

This research aims to analyze the influence of work motivation and organizational culture on the performance of private university lecturers in Cianjur, with compensation as a moderating variable. Lecturer performance remains suboptimal, as indicated by low publication rates, academic ranks, and certification levels. A quantitative method was applied using questionnaires distributed to 97 lecturers. Validity, reliability, and regression tests were conducted. The results show that work motivation and organizational culture significantly affect lecturer performance, with compensation strengthening this relationship. The study highlights the importance of managing work motivation, organizational culture, and fair compensation to enhance lecturer performance
