The purpose of the study is to determine the influence of the leader-member exchange of the staff on their job performance. It was found that the leader-member exchange level of the members is "very high", job performance level of the members is "high". According to the findings, it was determined that there is a positive, statistically significant and “medium” level of relationship between the leader-member exchange level of the staff and their job performance.
