It is in this agency or institution that the employees of the City Social Service Office should work optimally for the advancement of service quality in overcoming social problems in society that still look complex. This research aims to study the impact of leadership on employee performance, which is mediated by the work motivation and work discipline of the Social Service Bureau of the "S" District, East Java Province, Indonesia.
