This study aimed to disclose the potential impact of interpersonal communication, conflict management, Asta Brata leadership style, and work motivation on the teacher job in the junior high schools of Denpasar City, Indonesia. The sample comprised 234 teachers from various junior high schools in Denpasar City, Indonesia. To minimize the impact of non-response and incomplete responses, which may affect the accuracy of the data, five survey questionnaires were administered to 274 teachers working at the junior high schools in Denpasar City, Indonesia, ensuring that the target of samples was met. To disclose how interpersonal communication, conflict management, Asta Brata leadership style, and work motivation impact teacher job satisfaction, we utilized structural equation modeling (SEM) with partial least squares (PLS) technique, using the SMARTPLS software. The results of data analysis showed that interpersonal communication, conflict management, Asta Brata leadership style, and work motivation impact significantly positively on teacher job satisfaction. The study suggests that educational institutions should prioritize the development of open communication, effective leadership, conflict resolution, and employee motivation to promote teacher job satisfaction, which can lead to better student outcomes. School leaders should recognize the critical role of these factors and create strategies to improve them. Policymakers can use these findings to design effective programs and policies to enhance teacher job satisfaction.
