Abstract :
Introduction:The aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of emotional exhaustion in the relationship between performance management and teacher performance. Research Methodology: This research is applied in terms of purpose, descriptive in research method and correlational type and the statistical population of this research consists of school teachers in Bavanat city, whose number is equal to 400 people. To select the sample size using the Cochran's formula, a sample of 200 people was selected through stratified random sampling proportionate to volume. The standard questionnaire of Van Waeyenberg et al. (2020) was used to measure emotional exhaustion, teacher performance and performance management. The internal consistency of the questionnaire was assessed through Cronbach's alpha coefficient and its composite reliability and its validity via construct and content validity. The research hypotheses were analyzed using structural equation modeling technique. Findings:The results showed that performance management has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance and a significant negative effect on emotional exhaustion. The results also showed that emotional exhaustion plays a mediating role in the relationship between performance management and teacher performance. So when teachers are emotionally committed to school and education, they work harder and perform better.
