Riska Afrilia — 2026-05-02

This study aims to analyze working capital and profit growth at PT Perkebunan Nusantara I Regional 7 during the period 2021–2025. The study employs a descriptive quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from the company’s annual financial statements. The analysis is conducted by calculating working capital based on the difference between current assets and current liabilities, as well as analyzing profit growth based on year-to-year changes in net profit. The results indicate that the company’s working capital experienced significant fluctuations during the research period, with negative working capital conditions occurring in several years, indicating potential short-term liquidity problems. In addition, the company’s profit growth also showed an unstable pattern, where a significant increase in profit in a particular year could not be sustained in subsequent years. Overall, the findings suggest that the management of working capital and the achievement of profit growth at PT Perkebunan Nusantara I Regional 7 have not been optimal and consistent, indicating the need for improvements in financial management to achieve more stable and sustainable financial performance in the future.

Jamila Fitriyastuti — 2026-07-20

Employee performance is an important factor in improving the quality of public services, especially in institutions handling licensing and manpower services. However, in recent years there have been indications of declining employee performance at the Investment and One-Stop Integrated Service and Manpower Office (DPMPTSP NAKER) of Bondowoso Regency, which is suspected to be influenced by various organizational and human resource factors. This study aims to analyze the influence of training, loyalty, work engagement, compensation, and work environment on employee performance at DPMPTSP NAKER Bondowoso Regency. This research employed a quantitative approach using explanatory research methods. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 67 civil servant and non-civil servant employees of DPMPTSP NAKER Bondowoso Regency during the period of December 2025 to March 2026. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS software, preceded by validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests. The results showed that partially, training, loyalty, work engagement, compensation, and work environment had a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Simultaneously, these five independent variables also significantly affected employee performance, as evidenced by the calculated F-value of 71.181, which was greater than the F-table value of 2.370. These findings indicate that improving employee performance is influenced not only by individual abilities but also by organizational support through effective human resource management.

Mohammad Hidayat — 2026-06-28

This study aims to analyze the influence of teacher competence, teacher commitment, and learning methods on student learning outcomes in educational institutions under the auspices of the Nurun Najah Education Foundation, Jember Regency. The study used a quantitative approach with a survey method. The research sample consisted of 50 permanent teachers selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, distribution of Likert scale questionnaires, and literature studies. Data analysis used multiple linear regression with the help of SPSS software version 25 through testing validity, reliability, classical assumptions, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination. The results showed that teacher competence, teacher commitment, and learning methods partially did not have a significant effect on student learning outcomes. Simultaneously, the three variables also did not have a significant effect on student learning outcomes. The Adjusted R Square value of 0.073 indicates that the research model is only able to explain 7.3% of the variation in student learning outcomes, while the rest is influenced by other factors outside the research model. This finding indicates that improving student learning outcomes requires the support of internal student factors and a more comprehensive educational environment.

Fast Food Security Catering Business Development Strategy to Support Community Food Independence

Wandi Kurniadi — 2026-05-28

Community food independence has become a critical strategic priority in the context of sustainable national development, especially amid growing urbanization, changing dietary patterns, and increasing demand for safe, accessible, and nutritious food. The fast food catering sector plays a dual role: on one hand it responds to the practical food needs of urban and peri-urban communities, and on the other it bears a responsibility toward food safety, nutritional quality, and local supply chain sustainability. Despite significant growth in this sector, many catering enterprises still lack formalized strategic frameworks, operate with limited food safety infrastructure, and remain disconnected from local food systems that could reinforce community food independence. This study aims to analyze and formulate a comprehensive business development strategy for fast food security catering businesses to support community food independence, using a mixed-methods approach combining SWOT analysis, Business Model Canvas (BMC), and qualitative stakeholder interviews. Data were gathered from catering business owners, food safety inspectors, community food program coordinators, and consumers in three urban districts. Findings indicate four strategic priority pillars: (1) strengthening food safety compliance and certification systems; (2) diversifying product portfolios with local food-based menus; (3) expanding market access through digital platforms and institutional partnerships; and (4) building sustainable local supply chain networks that empower small-scale farmers and food producers. This study contributes an integrated strategy framework that bridges business competitiveness and community food sovereignty, offering practical and policy-relevant implications for catering enterprises, local government food agencies, and community welfare programs.

The Influence of Lembur Pakuan and KDM Branding on Tourists' Visit Decisions to Subang Regency in 2025

Andi Sukandi — 2026-07-28

This study examines the influence of Lembur Pakuan branding and Kang Dedi Mulyadi (KDM) branding on tourists' decisions to visit Subang Regency in 2025. A quantitative approach was applied through a survey of 100 purposively selected respondents. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), including evaluation of construct validity and reliability, testing of relationships between variables, and assessing the model's predictive ability. The analysis results show that all constructs meet the criteria of convergent validity, discriminant validity, and reliability. Lembur Pakuan branding has a positive and significant effect on visiting decisions with a path coefficient of 0.502, t-statistic of 7.789, and p < 0.001. KDM branding also has a positive and significant effect with a path coefficient of 0.329, t-statistic of 5.021, and p < 0.001. The two variables together explained 50.4% of the variation in visit decisions (R² = 0.504). In the PLS Predict test, the RMSE and MAE PLS-SEM values for all indicators were lower than those of the linear model, indicating good predictive performance. This finding confirms that a strong destination identity, when supported by the popularity, credibility, and communication activities of the KDM, can drive tourists' decisions to visit Subang Regency

Analysis of the Influence of Digital Leadership on Innovative Work Behavior through Psychological Safety

Muhamad Ahyat — 2026-07-01

This study examines the influence of digital leadership on innovative work behavior, with psychological safety positioned as a mediating variable. The rapid adoption of digital technologies has transformed the way leaders guide, motivate, and empower employees, creating a pressing need to understand how digitally oriented leadership styles translate into innovative outcomes at the individual level. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed to 215 employees working in technology-based service organizations, and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that digital leadership has a significant positive effect on both psychological safety and innovative work behavior, and that psychological safety significantly mediates the relationship between digital leadership and innovative work behavior. These findings suggest that leaders who effectively leverage digital competencies, transparent communication, and adaptive decision-making foster a climate in which employees feel safe to take interpersonal risks, which in turn encourages them to generate, promote, and implement novel ideas. The study contributes to the growing body of literature on digital-era leadership by clarifying the psychological mechanism through which digital leadership stimulates innovation, and offers practical implications for organizations seeking to strengthen innovation capacity through leadership development and the cultivation of psychologically safe work environments

Analysis of Production Management in Locally Based Ready-to-Eat Food Security Catering

Wandi Kurniadi — 2026-05-28

The ready-to-eat food catering industry represents a critical node in the community food security system, particularly as urbanization accelerates and household dependence on external food services intensifies. Locally based ready-to-eat food catering enterprises face a distinctive set of production management challenges: balancing high-volume, time-sensitive production with consistent food safety standards, integrating variable-quality local raw materials into standardized product outputs, and maintaining operational efficiency within limited infrastructure and human resource capacities. Despite the strategic importance of this sector, systematic analysis of production management practices specifically within locally based, food-safety-oriented catering enterprises remains scarce in the literature. This study aims to analyze production management practices in locally based ready-to-eat food security catering, encompassing production planning, raw material procurement management, food safety and quality control systems, capacity management, and waste reduction strategies. A qualitative case study approach was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, structured production process observation, and documentation analysis across twelve purposively selected catering enterprises in West Java Province, Indonesia. Findings reveal five critical dimensions of production management requiring strategic attention: (1) production planning that integrates demand forecasting with local raw material availability cycles; (2) procurement management that balances local sourcing commitments with supply reliability and quality consistency requirements; (3) food safety management systems built around adapted HACCP principles accessible to small-scale operators; (4) human resource capacity development in food handling, hygiene practices, and production scheduling; and (5) food waste minimization strategies that simultaneously reduce production costs and strengthen environmental sustainability. This study contributes an integrated production management framework for locally based ready-to-eat food security catering that bridges operational practice, food safety compliance, and community food sovereignty objectives
