Aim: This study investigates the impact of organizational coaching on cynicism and job performance with a multilevel approach. Methods: The research method is descriptive-survey.

Smart PLS software and HLM software were used for data analysis. At the individual level, the results showed that cynicism had a significant negative effect on job performance. Results: The results of multilevel analysis showed that coaching at the organizational level had a significant and negative effect on organizational cynicism at the individual level and a positive and significant effect on job performance. In this study, the moderating role of Multilevel coaching on the relationship between cynicism and job performance was confirmed.
