Abstract:
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of training on performance and the mediating role of proactive personality in the relationship between training and employee performance in Lebanon. The study is based on analyzing 105 respondents who are employed in Lebanon. The present study uses the SPSS statistical software to investigate the relationship between employee training, proactive personality, and employee performance. Furthermore, the study finds that training has an impact on employee performance regardless of proactive personality. The study also recommends that organizations should focus on implementing training practices to enhance their employees’ performance which will ultimately lead to organizational success/performance. Moreover, the study suggests that more research is needed to examine the effect of training on proactive personality to determine the effect of this relationship in the Lebanese context and to help validate and generalize the results of previous findings in other countries mostly in the Middle East.
