This research has the objective to analyze not only the effect of soft skills, organizational culture, compensation, and work satisfaction on the lecturer’s performance but which variable has the most dominant among them as well. The results of the research and data analysis show that soft skills, organizational culture, compensation and work satisfaction simultaneously have significant influence on the lecturer’s performance. In addition, soft skills have the most dominant one with the largest regression coefficient value of 0.789 and the partial correlation coefficient value of 5.882. This shows that soft skills has the most dominant influence on the lecturer’s performance in Economic Faculty, Indonesian Christian University of Maluku (UKIM) in Ambon. Based on the contribution of all independent variables to the dependent variable, it can be explained by the magnitude of the coefficient of multiple determinations (R2) which is equal to 0.830. This means that all of the independent variables, namely, soft skills, organizational culture, compensation and work satisfaction which were used in the regression equation can simultaneously account for 83.0 percent. In other word, the variable of soft skills, organizational culture, compensation, and work satisfaction simultaneously exerting influence on the work performance of the lecturers. On the other hand, the other independent variables which we’re not included in the research model accounted for 17 percent.
