Abstract

This study examines the impact of Self-Determination Theory (SDT) components—autonomy, competence, and relatedness—along with leadership style and contextual variables on employee performance and well-being in the commercial banking sector in Karnataka. The research investigates how SDT elements and workplace motivation influence employee performance, and explores the mediating role of motivation in the relationship between SDT, leadership styles, and performance outcomes. Additionally, the study evaluates how contextual factors, such as organizational culture and work environment, affect employee well-being. Furthermore, it assesses the negative impact of burnout and job stress on performance, providing a comprehensive view of the factors that drive or hinder employee productivity in commercial banks. Finally, an integrated framework is proposed that highlights the interconnected role of SDT components, leadership style, and contextual variables in improving employee performance and well-being. The findings aim to offer valuable insights for banking managers and policymakers to enhance employee engagement, reduce stress, and improve overall organizational performance.
