Abstract

The Hukum Tua, or Village Head in North Sulawesi, holds unique authority and power compared to other village leaders. However, this authority and power have not been fully understood or optimally utilized. This study aims to identify the types of power exercised by the Hukum Tua in leading the administration of village government and society. A qualitative method was employed, with informants drawn from various village stakeholders. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, literature review, and focus group discussions. The findings reveal that the Hukum Tua possesses both positional and personal power, though these have not been maximized in the leadership of village governance. The results also indicate that regulatory innovations have shifted and, in some cases, weakened the customary authority of the Hukum Tua, leading toward more democratic arrangements. These findings imply that the leadership of the Hukum Tua can be strengthened by harmonizing formal law and customary law to optimize the implementation of village governance.

Abstract

This study aims to empirically test the influence of career development on employee performance with self-efficacy as a mediating variable at the Regional Tax and Retribution Management Agency (BPPRD) of Ambon City. The research used a quantitative method with 38 civil servants as the sample, selected through simple random sampling. Data were collected via questionnaires and analyzed using Smart PLS 3. The results show that career development has a significant and positive effect on employee performance. Additionally, self-efficacy significantly mediates the relationship between career development and employee performance. These findings suggest that employee development programs should focus not only on technical skills but also on building self-confidence to enhance performance outcomes. Keywords : career development, employee performance, self efficacy

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of transactional leadership style on employee performance with locus of control as a mediating variable at PT. Telkom Akses Area Ambon. The population in this study consists of all leaders and employees of PT. Telkom Akses Area Ambon, totaling 158 people. The research sample consists of 60 respondents selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data processing was carried out using the Smart PLS 3 application, applying two analytical models: outer model and inner model. The results of the study show that transactional leadership has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Transactional leadership significantly affects locus of control. Locus of control significantly influences employee performance. Locus of control serves as a partial mediator that helps strengthen the influence of transactional leadership on performance, although it does not fully mediate the relationship.

Abstract

This study examines strategies to strengthen local institutions in Piru Village, West Seram Regency, particularly the Negeri and Saniri institutions. These traditional bodies, part of the community governance system in Maluku, face challenges that weaken their roles. Using a qualitative approach, the study identifies key factors influencing institutional decline and explores how members empower themselves through education and training. The findings reveal strong enthusiasm among members to enhance their knowledge and skills, significant support for those who can participate in learning activities, and high expectations that trained individuals will share their knowledge with others. Overall, the study highlights the importance of collective commitment and knowledge-sharing as essential strategies for strengthening the capacity and sustainability of local institutions in West Seram Regency.

Abstract

This study examines the significant role of digital media as a limitless space that transforms meaning and social interaction in modern society. Through a social hermeneutic approach, it explores how technology and information media transcend physical and social boundaries, creating a dynamic and complex communication environment. Digital media eliminates spatial and temporal limits, enabling instant, global information exchange and interaction. However, this openness also requires critical awareness and ethical communication to address issues such as misinformation, multiple interpretations, and conflicts in meaning. By understanding these dynamics, society can use digital media more wisely to build effective, harmonious communication both locally and globally in today’s interconnected world.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of facilitating conditions, hedonic motivation, price value, and habit on behavioral intention, and the subsequent impact of behavioral intention on actual usage of the DANA digital payment platform in Indonesia. A quantitative method was used, involving 130 respondents who completed a structured online questionnaire. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that all four variables significantly affect behavioral intention, with habit as the strongest contributor, followed by hedonic motivation, facilitating conditions, and price value. Additionally, behavioral intention was found to have a significant influence on actual usage of DANA. These results highlight that users’ adoption and continued use of digital payment services are strongly shaped by habitual patterns, user enjoyment, and practical benefits such as ease of use and cost efficiency. This study offers valuable insights for service providers aiming to improve user engagement and platform usage.

Abstract

This study investigates the determinants of business success among retail traders in Kupang, focusing on entrepreneurial competence, capital aspects, and regional origin within the framework of social capital theory. Using a quantitative associative approach, data were collected through observation, questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that entrepreneurial competence has a positive and significant effect on business success, capital aspects have a positive but insignificant effect, and regional origin exerts a negative and significant effect. Contrary to social capital theory, the results suggest that the greater social capital possessed by non-migrant traders does not enhance, but instead hinders, their business success.

Abstract

This study analyzes the leadership of the female traditional leader (Raja Ina), Janse Tresia Leimena, in promoting inclusive development in Negeri Ema, Ambon. Using a qualitative case study method involving interviews, observation, and document analysis, the research finds that her transformational-charismatic leadership style characterized by effective communication, empathy, and an inspiring vision successfully enhanced community participation in supporting vulnerable groups. The main constraints include patriarchal bias within the traditional structure, limited budget, and bureaucratic challenges. The study concludes that indigenous women's leadership has significant potential to act as a catalyst for inclusive development, provided it is supported by multi-stakeholder collaboration and context-responsive policies.
