The research was carried out to explore the influence of leadership training and development on employee job performance. Leadership is an expertise that drives groups of people to act towards a shared aim. It is a process of motivating and enabling people to work energetically towards goals. Leadership is vital because it develops a clear vision and communicates effectively with subordinates and co-workers. A company must develop its leaders and managers with strong leadership skills. This research aims to evaluate the influence of leadership training and development for managers on employee performance. About 68 workers have been picked as a sample. A quantitative research design was adopted, and a questionnaire was used to collect the primary data. The convenience sampling approach was chosen. The reliability test used Cronbach’s alpha, and the result was determined to be 0.627. Based on the correlation and regression results, where p < 0.00, leadership training and development significantly influence work performance. Thus, the author concluded that practical leadership training and development for managers lead to high employee work performance.
