Abstract: In many cases, low motivation is caused by an organizational climate that is not conducive and the competence of the people in the organization does not match the needs of the organization which is facing the demands of today's rapid changes. In this study, competence is placed as a variable that moderates the effect of organizational climate on motivation. The reason is that it is very difficult to motivate someone if the person concerned is not competent at work. Therefore, it is very important to know in advance the competencies possessed by an employee and place them in the appropriate job. Thus the organization can motivate its employees in the direction the organization wants to achieve.
