Abstract

This study examines the role of human resource competencies in enhancing sustainable performance in aquaculture small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through the mediating role of adaptive capability. In increasingly competitive and uncertain business environments, many aquaculture SMEs face challenges in converting workforce competencies into sustainable long-term performance. Drawing on the Resource-Based View (RBV) and Dynamic Capabilities Theory, this study argues that human resource competencies constitute valuable organizational resources, while adaptive capability enables firms to reconfigure and utilize these resources effectively in response to environmental changes. Unlike prior studies that mainly focus on the direct relationship between human resources and performance, this research highlights adaptive capability as a key mechanism explaining how competencies contribute to sustainable outcomes within the informal human resource context of aquaculture SMEs. Data were collected from 250 owners and employees of aquaculture SMEs and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that human resource competencies significantly enhance adaptive capability (β = 0.56; p < 0.001), and adaptive capability significantly improves sustainable performance (β = 0.39; p < 0.001). Furthermore, adaptive capability partially mediates the relationship between human resource competencies and sustainable performance, suggesting that competencies contribute to performance both directly and indirectly through organizational adaptability. These findings demonstrate that sustainable performance depends not only on workforce competencies but also on the firm's ability to translate those competencies into adaptive operational practices. The study provides important implications for SME managers and policymakers in strengthening competency development and adaptive organizational routines to support long-term business sustainability and resilience.

Abstract

This study aims to design a change management strategy at Batik PRINGMAS through the application of the ADKAR model in the development of culture-based thematic tourism packages. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed, utilizing in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation as data collection methods. The ADKAR model, consisting of five stages Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability, and Reinforcement is used to manage organizational change and foster greater community involvement. The study reveals how the ADKAR model can address existing resistance to change, as well as shape behaviors that support operational transformation at Batik PRINGMAS, from a batik gallery to a cultural tourism destination that integrates culture, nature, and local community. The findings show that Batik PRINGMAS holds significant potential to become an authentic cultural tourism destination, with the development of three main tourism packages Interactive Batik Workshop, River Adventure, and Batik Costume Experience that offer a compelling and authentic tourism experience. This transformation also involves building the capacity of local human resources in destination management, as well as fostering inclusive and participatory decision-making processes, enabling sustainability in tourism development. This research provides new insights into how the ADKAR model can be applied in community-based tourism contexts and offers practical recommendations for SMEs in managing resistance to change and creating sustainable socio-cultural value.
