JEL Classification: O15, E41, L4 A B S T R A C T The goal of human resource management research is to establish the impact of LMX on employee performance in health education institutions through job satisfaction and innovation moderated by knowledge exchange. It is critical for an organization's success to be able to apply LMX theory to work satisfaction, innovation, and knowledge exchange. Knowledge Sharing was used as a moderating variable in this study. Employees' inventive behavior is encouraged by the act of exchanging knowledge and collectively developing new knowledge, which involves synergistic teamwork between individuals. Quantitative research was used in this study. Questionnaires were distributed as part of the data collection process. The author enlisted the help of three Palangka Raya-based health education institutions as correspondents. On 75 respondents, data was collected using simple random sampling, and data was analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis and inferential statistical analysis. The findings revealed a link between LMX, innovation, and the moderating of knowledge sharing on performance. As a result of the findings, it is critical to use LMX and innovation in order to boost employee performance. © 2022 by the authors. Licensee SSBFNET, Istanbul, Turkey.

Introduction As with innovation, knowledge sharing or knowledge sharing is the transfer of experience, skills, and information into practice (Setini et al., 2020). Value creation, which is enabled by knowledge exchange, is the characteristic of innovation. An organization that fosters and supports its employees' ability to innovate (Castaneda & Cuellar, 2020). Human Resources management is required in all businesses. This is the foundation that is in charge of taking care of the company's varied human resource demands (Hayajneh et al., 2022). The availability of human resources will be the most important determining factor in efforts to improve the quality of higher education in the next years (Tajeddini et al., 2020). Those who serve as both leaders and members of an educational group. Higher education management is built on the foundation of education providers. As a result, it's critical that educators enjoy their work and apply new ideas in order to meet each task's objectives (Treadway et al., 2019). The above is a greatly wanted wish, yet there are frequently complications. First, researchers discovered improvements in health colleges that needed to be enhanced based on direct observations made over the last few years. Some people limit themselves to using social media as a promotional tool in today's world (Choi et al., 2020). The second finding was discontent at work, which was based on direct interviews with the personnel department and many employees. Employee work satisfaction indicates that employees' wants and desires are being addressed. Dissatisfaction, on the other hand, happens when expectations do not match reality. Work that is frequently incomplete and not on goal, poor relationships with colleagues and superiors, and frequent complaints are some indications of this unhappiness with relation to pay.
