Abstract

The furniture export performance study departs from an awareness decline in Export Performance (EP) and an innovation index below Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines in 2021. Thus, this paper aims to build an empirically tested model to build EP. The critical concept is the importance of building innovation through learning and utilizing learning to transform current challenges into opportunities to address various challenges. Organizations must get an agile work team by building Energizing Team Learning (ETL). ETL is offered to strengthen Digital Technology (DT), whose use has been strategically attached to the furniture industry to achieve performance and provide various solutions to problems facilitated by Opportunity Recognition (OR). This study's theoretical gap contradicts the DT to EP research results. The direction of this paper is to develop an appropriate strategy to encourage the presence of EP through ETL, which is used to facilitate the presence of OR to create EP. This research involved 194 furniture exporters in Central Java. The analytical method used is Structural Equation Modeling with the AMOS 22 analysis tool. This study uses the perspective of Knowledge-Based View Theory and empirically proves that DT has an insignificant effect on EP, and ETL and OR managed to mediate DT to EP fully. The strategy to optimize EP is to strengthen DT in the organization, build learning agility through ETL, and apply learning contexts in capturing OR so that implementing this strategy provides empirical evidence to be an optimal strategy. Managers need to make practical implications for the contribution of knowledge built up through the talents of people placed in ETL.

Abstract

Child-friendly school education is education with a pleasant learning atmosphere and supports teachers’ ability to implement active, collaborative, and democratic learning in the context of edutainment. Child-friendly school education programs are considered capable of strengthening the character of children to become individuals with noble character. In 2020, Indonesia had 36,766 child-friendly schools spread across the country. However, the current implementation of child-friendly schools is still not optimal considering the many phenomena of bullying problems that are increasingly rampant. This is in line with the data that in Indonesia there were 12,285 children experiencing violence, and the data continued to increase in 2020 to 12,425 and 2022 as many as 15,972 children. This quantitative study included 138 teacher respondents. The obtained data were analyzed using a structural equation model with SmartPLS software. This research builds a model that involves the Variables Of Technology Knowledge And Teaching Aids as endogenous variables with Educational Competence as a mediating variable to improve Child-Friendly School Performance. The results revealed that the model built fit is proven that Educational Competence can leverage Teaching Aids and Technology Knowledge on Child-Friendly School Performance with the best path being Teaching Aids->Educational Competence-> Child-Friendly School Performance, with a total effect of 0.239198. This research contributes to the body of knowledge of Constructivism Theory.

Abstract

Human Capital as an intangible asset is the key to building Readiness for Change (RTC), which is rooted in Self-Efficacy (SE) and Job Satisfaction (JS), which in several previous studies were not significant. Human capital refers to the role of Individuals as important agents in organizations based on the existence of Personal Characteristics (PC) that facilitate the achievement of SE and JS to improve RTC. The purpose of the study is to offer Affective Commitment (AC) as mediating variable in the nexus between SE and JS. This study uses a quantitative approach with 124 school principals in Indonesia, employing Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to examine Affective Commitment (AC) in bridging the gap between SE and JS on RTC. The results of empirical testing using SEM instruments processed with AMOS software show that AC can fully mediate JS (B= 0.614) on the RTC. However, AC utilizes only part of SE (B= 0.390) in the RTC. This finding confirms that the best path to building an RTC through PC strengthening is through JS and AC. The principal, in their capacity as an organizational leader, holds a pivotal role in cultivating an environment conducive to fostering self-efficacy (SE) and establishing a cohesive, innovative atmosphere that emphasizes the influence of personal character on job satisfaction. Moreover, it is imperative for the principal to advocate for continuous enhancement of knowledge and expertise through structured training, autonomous learning, and collaborative knowledge-sharing practices. This finding contributes to the body of knowledge in the perspective of commitment from Human Capital.

Abstract

Mbangkong Village is predominantly inhabited by young people, accounting for 58% of the total population. Most of the youth in this village, especially women, do not pursue higher education and tend to marry at an early age. This socio-demographic condition has limited the community's livelihood choices, which are primarily concentrated in agriculture, animal husbandry, and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). One of the MSMEs that partnered in this community engagement program is a free-range native chicken farming business that generates monthly revenue of IDR 8–10 million. Although market demand for native chicken continues to grow, the business faces a 35% supply gap that has yet to be addressed. The partner MSME faces several core challenges, including: (1) inadequate security of the farm area due to the absence of proper fencing, making it vulnerable to external threats; (2) limited managerial capacity in business planning, management, and evaluation, which are still carried out using traditional methods; and (3) lack of product diversification, with income solely dependent on the sale of live chickens and eggs, without any value-added products. This community engagement program aims to provide comprehensive solutions through three main approaches: (1) improving production capacity by building or repairing chicken coops and securing the farm area to make it safer and more productive; (2) providing entrepreneurship management training for MSME actors and local business communities in Mbangkong Village to enhance their business sustainability skills; and (3) developing derivative products from native chicken to increase added value and expand market reach. The expected outcomes of this program include: (1) improved farm safety and productivity through physical infrastructure enhancement; (2) strengthened managerial knowledge and skills of the MSME partner through entrepreneurship training; and (3) increased business income through product diversification and market development. Ultimately, this program is expected to strengthen the MSME partners' economic resilience and promote sustainable local economic growth.

Abstract

This study aims to find the best model for coffee agribusiness development in Indonesia that acquires the construct of knowledge management. Knowledge Management helps businesses effectively collect, store, and use relevant information. The effectiveness of such information management is becoming increasingly important despite complex challenges such as intense competition and changing economic conditions. The main problem is that contradictions result in the relevance relevance between Knowledge Management and Business Continuity. From these problems, this research offers the Partnership Network as a mediating variable. This study aims to empirically examine the effect of knowledge management on business continuity. This research offers the Partnership Network variable as a mediator from the perspective of Resource-Based View Theory and Knowledge-Based View Theory. This study employs a quantitative approach with a positivism paradigm. The number of samples in this study was 179 with data testing using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the SmartPLS analysis tool. This study found the effect of Partnership Network (PN) mediating variables that bridged Knowledge Management (KM) to Business Continuity (BC), namely Internalization (IN) to Business Continuity (BC), by 0.130. The perspective of this study uses the Resource Based View Theory and Knowledge-Based View Theory. Coffee farm owners need to join a trusted certified community to receive active knowledge transfer. The knowledge gained from training must be immediately applied to managing coffee farm challenges, such as lack of fertilizer and changing soil characteristics.
