Abstract

Abstract This study aims to examine the role of social capital and interpersonal trust in improving lecturer performance through organizational commitment at Universitas Islam Malang. This research employs a quantitative approach using Structural Equation Modelling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The sample consisted of 204 lecturers selected through proportional sampling. The results indicate that social capital has a positive and significant effect on organizational commitment and lecturer performance. Interpersonal trust has a positive and significant effect on organizational commitment but does not directly affect lecturer performance. Organizational commitment significantly influences lecturer performance. Furthermore, organizational commitment mediates the relationship between social capital and lecturer performance, as well as the relationship between interpersonal trust and lecturer performance. The model explains 44.8% of the variance in lecturer performance and 34.1% of the variance in organizational commitment. These findings highlight the strategic importance of strengthening social relationships and trust within academic institutions to enhance organizational commitment and improve lecturer performance. Keywords: Social Capital, Interpersonal Trust, Organizational Commitment, Lecturer Performance, SEM-PLS

Abstract

Objective: This study examines the influence of knowledge sharing and customer orientation on salesforce performance through the mediating role of self-efficacy among restaurant salespeople in Indonesian MSME settings, addressing the psychological mechanisms linking these antecedents to performance and the potential for overconfidence bias. Research Design & Methods: A quantitative approach used questionnaires distributed to 380 restaurant salespeople (frontliners, waiters/waitresses, and cashiers) in Malang Raya, selected through purposive and convenience sampling; data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). Findings: Customer orientation has a positive and significant direct effect on salesforce performance, while knowledge sharing has no significant direct effect. Both knowledge sharing and customer orientation positively influence self-efficacy; however, self-efficacy negatively and significantly affects salesforce performance and negatively mediates the effects of knowledge sharing and customer orientation on performance, indicating overconfidence bias. Implications & Recommendations: Restaurant MSME management should prioritize customer orientation while carefully managing knowledge sharing programs, and must monitor and calibrate employee self-efficacy to prevent overconfidence. Training should incorporate objective feedback, realistic goal setting, and adaptive selling development so self-efficacy remains motivating rather than complacency-inducing. Contribution & Value Added: This study challenges the conventional positive assumption of Social Cognitive Theory on self-efficacy, showing empirically that self-efficacy can negatively influence performance through overconfidence bias, extending the theory into Indonesia's food and beverage MSME context and offering original empirical evidence and managerial insight.
