Abstract

This study examines the persistent underachievement of project employees’ KPIs at PT XYZ despite increasing organizational profitability by investigating the influence of High-Performance Work Systems (HPWS) on Employee Performance through Employee Engagement and Innovative Work Behavior within a Resource-Based View (RBV) framework. Using a quantitative explanatory and cross-sectional design, data were collected from 208 project-level managerial employees through a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire, exceeding the minimum sample requirement of 163 respondents. Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) using SmartPLS 4 was employed to evaluate both measurement and structural models. The results reveal that HPWS does not directly affect employee performance but significantly enhances employee engagement and innovative work behavior. Both variables act as partial mediators, translating HPWS practices into improved performance outcomes. These findings suggest that HPWS initiatives should emphasize competency development and innovation-enabling mechanisms rather than administrative compliance. Consistent implementation across projects is essential to ensure effective KPI achievement. Future research should adopt longitudinal designs and incorporate contextual variables such as leadership support or psychological safety.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of financial literacy, e-wallet usage, and lifestyle on financial management among undergraduate students of Management Program at Dian Nuswantoro University, based on the knowledge-behavior gap among Gen Z who actively use fintech but have low savings practices. The objective of the study is to analyze the causal relationship between these three variables using a quantitative explanatory approach with the PLS-SEM method. The population includes 1,617 active students in semesters 3-7 who have taken financial management courses and e-wallet users, with a sample of 178 respondents through purposive sampling. The instrument in the form of a Likert 1-5 questionnaire (15 indicators) was analyzed with SmartPLS 4 through validity tests (loading factor >0.7, AVE >0.5), reliability (CR >0.7), and bootstrapping hypothesis of 5000 subsamples. The results showed a significant positive influence on: financial literacy (β=0.377, p=0.000), lifestyle (β=0.286, p=0.006), e-wallet (β=0.204, p=0.010), with R²=0.584. The conclusion recommends the integration of e-wallet literacy into the curriculum to improve students' financial discipline.

Abstract

The abstract contains a brief description of the Purpose: This study investigates the effect of facilities and infrastructure management and the completeness of learning facilities on student loyalty, with student satisfaction as a mediating variable based on Expectation Disconfirmation Theory. Methods: A quantitative explanatory survey was conducted involving 80 students of a private junior high school in Samarinda, Indonesia, selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4. Results: The findings show that facilities and infrastructure management and learning facilities significantly influence student satisfaction, while student satisfaction has a strong effect on student loyalty. The direct effects of facilities and learning facilities on loyalty are not significant, indicating that student satisfaction fully mediates these relationships. Implications: The study highlights that student loyalty is formed through satisfaction rather than direct facility provision, suggesting that schools should focus on improving students’ perceived satisfaction through effective facility management and utilization.

Abstract

Investing in gold can be a good choice for protecting wealth and diversifying portfolios. Although there are risks involved, many investors view gold as a stable and safe asset. Hedonic values are one factor influencing people's decisions to invest in gold during the recent period of economic uncertainty. Most people purchase gold based on their desires rather than their needs. The influence of risk perception on gold investment is an important aspect that investors need to understand. Although gold is often considered a safe asset, this investment still has various risks that can affect the value and returns of the investment in the long term. Digital literacy is one of the factors required by a person in carrying out investment activities. By accessing information using digital literacy, individuals can learn about current events and predict potential risks. Improving digital literacy can contribute positively to investing, especially gold investment.

Abstract

This study analyzes the effect of Electronic Word of Mouth (EWOM) and Company Image on Customer Loyalty, with Customer Satisfaction as an intervening variable at Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) KCP Batu Diponegoro. The background of this study is the importance of customer loyalty amid digital banking competition. This quantitative study uses an explanatory design with 150 BSI customer respondents, selected through accidental sampling. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Squares (PLS) with SmartPLS 4.0. The results show that EWOM and Corporate Image have a positive and significant effect on Customer Satisfaction and Loyalty. Customer Satisfaction also has a significant effect on Customer Loyalty. The most important finding is that Customer Satisfaction significantly mediates the relationship between EWOM and Corporate Image on Customer Loyalty. It is concluded that EWOM and Corporate Image are drivers of loyalty, but their impact is significantly strengthened when both factors are successfully converted into a satisfying customer experience. Banks are advised to actively manage their digital reputation and improve service quality to ensure satisfaction

Abstract

This research examines how soybean raw material inventory is control at Kotin Tempe Home Industry by implementing the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) approach to prevent excessive stockpiling and enhance cost effectiveness. Employing a quantitative descriptive methodology that includes observation and interviews, findings reveal that the current inventory management lacks proper structure, with 48 annual orders made without maintaining safety reserves or establishing reorder thresholds. When the EOQ approach is applied, optimal procurement amounts to 350 kg ordered 14 times annually, with safety reserves of 62 kg (2023) and 45 kg (2024), and reorder thresholds set at 89 kg and 72 kg respectively. This approach achieves a 65% reduction in inventory expenses, equivalent to Rp1,300,000 annually, demonstrating how EOQ effectively lowers costs and reduces overstock risks. This study is expected to be able to help this business determine the most appropriate amount of soybean raw material orders to achieve optimal profits.

Abstract

Digital transformation creates new opportunities for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to expand their market reach; however, it also presents challenges related to digital inclusion, particularly for businesses that serve persons with disabilities. This study aims to analyze the implementation of storytelling-based marketing through live streaming as an inclusive digital marketing strategy at Tiara Handycraft, a patchwork handicraft MSME that empowers persons with disabilities. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations of live-streaming activities, and social media documentation. The data were then analyzed using thematic analysis techniques. The research findings indicate that storytelling that emphasizes social narratives and sustainability values is a key driver of digital promotion, effectively fostering emotional engagement among consumers. Furthermore, live streaming serves as an interactive medium that enables the active participation of persons with disabilities in marketing activities, thereby strengthening digital inclusion and enhancing the social legitimacy of MSMEs. Integrating storytelling, live streaming, and social entrepreneurship values contributes to the development of an empathetic brand image oriented toward social impact. This research contributes theoretically by extending the body of knowledge on digital marketing and social entrepreneurship through the lens of digital inclusion. From a practical perspective, the findings provide a reference for social MSMEs in designing digital marketing strategies that prioritize not only economic gains but also empowerment and social values

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the criminal liability of influencers in illegal crypto asset pump-and-dump schemes following the transition of oversight to the Financial Services Authority (OJK). Using a normative judicial method, it evaluates the synchronization between the EIT Law, the National Penal Code (Law No. 1/2023), and the P2SK Law. The results indicate that influencers can be held criminally liable under Article 28, paragraph (1) of the EIT Law for disseminating misleading information that causes material loss. Simultaneously, they may be prosecuted under Article 492 of the National Penal Code for fraud. The legal standing of influencers is constructed as "joint perpetrators" (medepleger) or "solicitors" (uitlokker) under Article 20 of the National Penal Code, given their dominant role in mobilizing the public through digital information manipulation. The use of disclaimers does not eliminate mens rea if criminal intent and profit from others' losses are proven. Integrative law enforcement is essential to protect consumers and the integrity of Indonesia's digital financial market
