Abstract

Work engagement is one component that can predict reduced turnover in Indonesia. Generation Z employees with high work engagement feel happier and can adjust their performance in uncertain situations. This study explores the role of employee happiness and adaptive performance on work engagement in Generation Z employees in Indonesia. This quantitative correlational study involved 342 participants of Generation Z employees who has worked for at least 1 year. The sampling technique in this study was purposive sampling.  This study uses three measurement for data collection, namely the employee happiness, adaptive performance, and work engagement scales which were administered using the Google form platform. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis techniques conducted on SPSS. The results showed that employee happiness and adaptive performance were significantly associated with work engagement among Generation Z employees and explain 45.4% of the variance. This study highlights the needs of future studies to further explore other variable that may affect work engagement beyond to the two variables that have been studied. In addition, the result provides a theoretical basis in developing employee engagement programs for Generation Z employees.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to examine the influence of personal branding and adversity quotient on the work readiness of final-year students, with self-efficacy acting as a mediating variable. The research emphasizes the urgency of preparing students for the competitive labor market amid Indonesia's rising unemployment rates among graduates. Method: Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 287 senior students at the Faculty of Economics and Business, Malang State University, via structured questionnaires on a 5-point Likert scale. Structural Equation Modeling with SmartPLS 4.1.0 was employed to analyze the relationships between variables, including the assessment of validity, reliability, and hypothesis testing. Results: Findings indicate that personal branding significantly influences self-efficacy (β= 0.167, p < 0.001), which in turn significantly impacts work readiness (β= 0.430, p < 0.001). Personal branding does not have a direct significant effect on work readiness (p > 0.05). Conversely, adversity quotient directly affects both self-efficacy (β= 0.674, p < 0.001) and work readiness (β= 0.308, p < 0.001). The model explains 36.9% of the variance in work readiness. Novelty: This research is the first post-pandemic study in Indonesia to investigate these internal psychological factors among final-year students, highlighting the crucial role of resilience and self-confidence over external branding in fostering graduate preparedness. The study provides insights into internal resilience strategies as a means to improve employability, urging higher education institutions to prioritize psychological development in career readiness programs.
