Abstract: Does the Characteristic of Regional Head Affect to Government Performance? The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of regional head characteristics on the performance of local government in Indonesia. The panel data regression test is used as a research method. The test results show that heads of regions with higher age and longer service life and women's gender can contribute positively to the performance. They use their experience to improve local government performance. In addition, this study also shows that the level of education of local heads don’t have a positive impact on performance because they tend to decide policies based on principles and social environment.
