Abstract
The aim of this paper is to examine the importance of skills development in the process of employee performance. As part of this research, we will seek to determine the nature and extent of skills development impact in improving employee performance. This research project is one of the new themes that some researchers have started in recent years. The novelty of this theme is the inclusion of the skill development factor. This factor is likely to have a positive impact on employee motivation and performance. Some of the factors already known to have an impact on employee performance, such as motivation, career development, training, and experience, will be adopted. It is assumed that the results of this research will have a positive impact on employee performance and employee retention.
