Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs) in Eastern Indonesia are threatened with bankruptcy during the COVID-19 pandemic. This situation occurred due to significantly decreased people’s purchasing power, and most production activities stopped. In light of this issue, this study aims to investigate how well MSMEs’ adaptability and innovation speed in Eastern Indonesia have increased their sales during the pandemic. We collected the data by distributing questionnaires on offline and online channels using Google Forms to MSMEs owners in Maluku and North Maluku Provinces. We eventually gathered 262 pieces of data and analyzed it through the PLS-SEM approach. The results showed that adaptability has a positive and significant effect on sales and the speed of innovation, while innovative speed has no impact on sales. In other words, the innovation speed can also not mediate adaptability to MSMEs sales. The results of this study are expected to benefit MSMEs owners in implementing appropriate business strategies, especially how MSMEs owners have the adaptability and innovation speed to manage their business in this condition of uncertainty. Additionally, this research is expected to provide an empirical contribution to the government of Indonesia in making considerations, policies, and decision-making related to the empowerment of MSMEs during the pandemic and beyond.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of human resource flexibility and employee competence on employee performance at PT Pos Indonesia, Ternate Branch. In the increasingly competitive postal and logistics industry, organizations must adopt adaptive and competency-based human resource management. This research used a causal quantitative approach with 45 permanent employees as respondents, employing a structured questionnaire measured on a five-point Likert scale. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression through SPSS version 25. The results showed that human resource flexibility has a positive and significant effect on employee performance, whereas employee competence does not have a significant impact. These findings suggest that adaptability and behavioral flexibility are stronger determinants of performance than individual competence in a bureaucratic public organization. This study contributes to human resource management literature by highlighting the strategic role of HR flexibility in enhancing employee performance within government-linked institutions.

Abstract

Purpose - This study examines the effect of pro-environmental behavior and green organizational culture on the sustainable performance of cafés in Ternate City. Design/methodology /approach - The study employed a quantitative explanatory design. Data were collected through structured questionnaires distributed to 29 operational employees of cafés that had implemented environmentally oriented practices. The data were analyzed using validity and reliability testing, classical assumption testing, and multiple linear regression in SPSS. Findings - The regression results indicate that pro-environmental behavior has a positive but statistically non-significant effect on sustainable performance (B = 0.170; p = 0.238). In contrast, green organizational culture has a positive and significant effect on sustainable performance (B = 1.063; p = 0.001). The simultaneous test confirms that pro-environmental behavior and green organizational culture jointly influence sustainable performance (F = 21.541; p = 0.001), with an estimated coefficient of determination of 0.624. Originality/value - The study extends sustainability management research by focusing on small service businesses in an island-city context, where resource efficiency, waste reduction, and environmentally responsible work routines are directly relevant to business continuity. The findings suggest that individual green behavior may not be sufficient unless it is embedded in a supportive green organizational culture.
