Belum maksimalnya kinerja organisasi pada Perguruan Tinggi Swasta di Jawa Tengah
disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor di antaranya adalah faktor eksternal dan faktor internal. Faktor
eksternal yaitu ketatnya persaingan yang terjadi, yakni persaingan antar Perguruan Tinggi Swasta
sendiri, persaingan dengan Perguruan Tinggi Negeri, maupun kemungkinan persaingan dengan
perguruan tinggi asing. Faktor internal yaitu bersumber dari perilaku sumber daya manusia
sendiri, seperti kecenderungan rendahnya komitmen organisasional, kepemimpinan belum
berjalan efektif, budaya organisasi dan pengembangan karir belum terlaksana dengan
baik.Tujuan penelitian ini adalah: mendiskripsikan budaya organisasi, kepemimpinan
transformasional, pengembangan karir, komitmen organisasional dan kinerja organisasi,
menganalisis pengaruh budaya organisasi, kepemimpinan transformasional, penegembangan
karir terhadap komitmen organisasional dan kinerja organisasi, serta menganalisis pengaruh
budaya organisasi, kepemimpinan transformasional, pengembangan karir terhadap kinerja
organisasi melalui komitmen organisasional. Populasi penelitian berjumlah 396 ketua program
studi. Sampel ditetapkan 130 responden, sesuai rekomendasi Hair, et al. (1998) bahwa sampel
untuk analisis SEM antara 100-200 responden. Analisis data menggunakan SEM (Structural
Equation Modeling). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa budaya organisasi, kepemimpinan
transformasional dan pengembangan karir berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap komitmen
