Abstract

This study explores the evolving dynamics of Indonesia’s rural tourism workforce, emphasizing its role in regional development and the challenges it faces. As rural tourism grows, driven by unique cultural and natural assets, it creates employment but also exposes workforce limitations, including low digital literacy, seasonal jobs, and skill gaps. The study aims to understand how demographic factors such as age, gender, education, and skills shape the workforce and influence its adaptability. Using a qualitative descriptive approach supported by secondary data analysis, this paper examines trends in workforce composition and the impact of digital transformation on rural employment. Findings indicate a growing demand for digital competencies, yet rural areas often lack training access and strategic workforce development. Challenges like job insecurity and limited career pathways further hinder sustainable growth. The study highlights the need for targeted interventions through human resource development, emphasizing collaboration between government, educational institutions, and industry. It concludes by recommending strategic training programs, strengthened academia-industry partnerships, and policy support to ensure workforce resilience and competitiveness. This research contributes to the discourse on sustainable tourism by offering insights into workforce readiness, serving as a roadmap for strengthening Indonesia’s rural tourism sector.

Abstract

This study explores innovation in Human Resource Management (HRM) in the tourism industry through bibliometric analysis. Using 70 relevant articles published between 2020 and 2024 from the Scopus database, this study uses bibliometric techniques such as simple count statistics, citation analysis, co-citation, bibliographic coupling, and network analysis. Findings reveal that human resource innovation plays a vital role in enhancing service quality, employee productivity, and organizational effectiveness in tourism. Key innovations include the use of artificial intelligence, video interviews, virtual and augmented reality in recruitment and training, and digital performance management systems. These tools significantly improve human resource efficiency and responsiveness. Moreover, green human resource practices and innovative employee welfare programs contribute to environmental performance and staff well-being. The study also emphasizes the need for continuous theoretical development to support sustainable human resource innovation.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of transformational leadership on organizational culture changes in the manufacturing industry. The phenomenon behind this research is the challenges faced by the manufacturing industry in adapting to the dynamics of the business environment, such as technological developments, global competition, and demands for increased innovation and efficiency. Many manufacturing companies have difficulty adapting due to rigid organizational cultures and employee resistance to change. Transformational leadership is seen as an approach that is able to overcome these obstacles by encouraging adaptive, innovative, and performance-oriented cultural change through empowerment, motivation, and effective communication. This study uses a quantitative method with survey techniques as a data collection tool. A total of 121 respondents, consisting of employees in the manufacturing sector, were selected using the purposive sampling technique. The research instrument is in the form of a closed questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale. The data obtained were analyzed using SPSS version 25 software to conduct validity, reliability, and multiple linear regression tests to test the relationship and influence between transformational leadership and organizational culture change. The results of the study show that transformational leadership has a significant influence in creating a more adaptive, innovative, and performance-oriented organizational culture. Factors such as effective communication, employee engagement, and an appreciation for creativity were found to be important elements in supporting such change. These findings suggest that the application of transformational leadership is particularly relevant in the dynamic manufacturing industry, especially in the face of market challenges and changing business environments. Leaders in this industry are expected to adopt transformational leadership to build a more responsive and productive organizational culture.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effects of AI literacy and digital competence on the work readiness of room division employees at star-rated hotels in Tasikmalaya Regency. A quantitative approach with an explanatory survey design was employed, involving 110 employees selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a closed-ended questionnaire based on a five-point Likert scale, distributed through Google Forms and direct administration, and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares with SmartPLS. The results indicate that AI literacy has a positive and significant effect on work readiness, with a path coefficient of 0.381, while digital competence also has a positive and significant effect, with a path coefficient of 0.472. The R-square value of 0.647 shows that both variables explain 64.7% of the variance in employee work readiness. Digital competence emerged as the more dominant factor in enhancing work readiness. These findings imply that hotel management should integrate digital competence and AI literacy training, strengthen employees’ understanding of data ethics and security, and provide continuous assistance to support effective adaptation and human–AI collaboration.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of humanistic employee management on service quality through job satisfaction in the Rooms Division of four-star hotels in Greater Bandung. In the hospitality industry, service quality depends not only on operational efficiency but also on how employees are managed and supported. Using a quantitative approach, survey data were collected from Rooms Division employees and analyzed with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to test the direct and indirect relationships among the variables. The results show that humanistic employee management has a significant positive effect on both job satisfaction and service quality. Job satisfaction also significantly influences service quality and partially mediates the relationship between humanistic employee management and service quality. These findings indicate that employee-centered management practices contribute to better employee attitudes and more consistent service performance. The study highlights the importance of humanistic management in high-contact hotel operations, particularly in Front Office and Housekeeping, where employee well-being and service delivery are closely interconnected.

Abstract

The governance of Traditional Cultural Expressions (TCE) in tourism has relied primarily on legal protection, preservation policy, and economic utilisation, yet these instruments do not by themselves produce cultural understanding among tourism actors. The persistent difficulty lies in the gap between cultural protection and cultural interpretation in tourism practice. This study develops a conceptual framework positioning tourism education not as a complement to legal and economic instruments but as the mechanism that connects them. Using a qualitative conceptual design, the study analyses Indonesian cultural and tourism policy, national and regional competency standards, and the tourism education literature, read against international scholarship on culture-based tourism education. The analysis finds that Indonesian tourism curricula remain oriented toward technical and service competencies, so that cultural understanding develops informally if at all, and TCE is readily promoted as an attraction while remaining inadequately understood as a living system of values. In response, the study proposes an education-centred model of cultural governance built on three interrelated dimensions: tiered learning, which advances cultural competency progressively from foundational awareness to strategic governance capacity; integrative governance, which links legal frameworks, educational institutions, tourism industries, and cultural communities; and differentiative curriculum design, which accommodates Indonesia's diverse local cultural contexts while maintaining national competency standards. The framework yields recommendations spanning curriculum reorientation, community-based experiential learning, ethical institutional partnerships, cross-sector coordination, and the enrichment of regional competency standards such as the ASEAN MRA-TP with substantive national cultural content. Conceptual in nature, the model requires empirical testing, but it offers a theoretical and policy foundation for curriculum reform and culturally sustainable tourism governance in Indonesia.
