Kesan faktor dalaman organisasi kepada prestasi tadbir urus koperasi di Malaysia

The contribution of the cooperative sector GDP in Malaysia is still low. Several reports and studies show that the cause of the problem was the failure of cooperative governance such as misconduct, abuse of power and irregularities among the management and cooperative board of members. The literature describing this phenomenon is very limited. Based on the National Cooperative Policy 2011-2020, the increase in GDP contribution could be achieved through good governance performance. Thus, this study aimed to determine the factors that affect the performance of cooperative governance in Malaysia. By applying the resource-based theory (RBT), factors of management leadership, organizational culture, resource management, employee focus, stakeholder focus and internal audit committee's effectiveness were determined. This study also examined the role of organizational culture as the mediating variable between the management leadership relationship and the performance of cooperative governance.
Questionnaires were used to collect data from the respondents. The data were analyzed using PLS-SEM. The findings indicate that the level of performance of cooperative governance is still good. The findings also indicate a significant positive relationship between stakeholder focus and the effectiveness of internal audit committees with the performance of cooperative governance. Meanwhile, management leadership, organizational culture, resource management and employee focus are not significant. Finally, the results find that the organizational culture factor as a mediating effect is statistically insignificant. In theory, the findings are in line with the assumption of the RBT theory in explaining the relationship between the variables. Practically, this study has developed a cooperative governance performance model based on core values. The results of this study are expected to give input to the SKM regarding the governance phenomena in the cooperative. The increase in achievement of the performance of cooperative governance is expected to increase the contribution of the country's GDP.
