The current Covid 19 phenomenon has resulted in hospital workers having to work extra extra than usual. Of course, this results in the emergence of problems that result in a decrease in the performance of hospital employees. From the results of initial interviews with the leadership and several employees who were met, there were problems within the hospital such as decreased employee commitment as a result of the pandemic situation, lack of attention and fairness of leadership in the division of tasks to employees, lack of appreciation for employees who had carried out their duties well, and the lack of coordination between fellow employees and leaders in their work so that it has an impact on employee performance in providing services to patients.

(Massie et al., 2018) suggest that performance can be defined as the ability of an employee to be responsible for carrying out the assigned tasks. In this study, the factors that influence employee performance are leadership style, work motivation and organizational commitment. According to (Robbins, 2017) organizational commitment is a condition where an employee favors a particular organization and its goals and desires to maintain membership in the organization. Research by (Tuada et al., 2020), (Kusa & Mansur, 2018), (Saputri & Muhsin, 2018), (Hafiz, 2017), and (Marhayani & Ibrahim, 2019) shows that commitment has a positive effect on performance. employee. But on the contrary with research conducted by (Harwiki, 2016) and (Bodroastuti et al., 2018) which shows that commitment has no effect on employee performance.

Success in advancing the quality of human resources along with standardization of company operations cannot be separated from the role of leaders in carrying out their managerial functions in an organization. According to (Saputra & Danim, 2019), leadership style can maximize productivity, job satisfaction, and easily adapt to all situations. Research (Purwanto et al., 2020), (Amrani et al., 2019), (Desta, 2019), and (Soegihartono, 2019) show that leadership has a positive effect on employee performance. On the other hand, research conducted by (Marjaya & Pasaribu, 2019), and (Sukrisnawati et al., 2019) shows that leadership has no effect on employee performance.

A leader must provide direction to subordinates, motivate those who drive or move employees to work together productively and achieve the goals set by the company. According to (Ekhsan et al., 2019) motivation comes from the word motive which means encouragement. It can be interpreted that motivation means a condition that influences a person to take action with a specific purpose. The results of research by (Haryono & Sulistyo, 2020), mention that motivation has a positive and significant influence on employee performance, in contrast to the results of research conducted by (Hasanah, 2017), (Aryanta et al., 2019) motivation has no effect on employee performance and research results from (Kumarawati et al., 2017) motivation have a negative effect on employee performance.

Based on the background provided, the objectives of this study are to examine the role of leadership, work motivation, and organizational commitment in the performance of hospitals in Bali. The research is expected to make a significant contribution to the understanding of practitioners, hospital management, and health policies in Bali. Anticipated benefits include a profound understanding of the roles of leadership, work motivation, and organizational commitment in the context of hospital performance. The study is also expected to provide management guidance, support the improvement of healthcare service quality, contribute to academic literature, and serve as a basis for policy decisions in developing strategies to enhance hospital performance in the region.
