Abstract

This study examines the impact of flexible work arrangements on innovation and sustainable growth in companies. Flexible working hours allow employees to set their own schedules and decide where and when they work most effectively. This allows them to spend more time at home or in the lab. Detaching the office helps increase productivity, creativity, and employee happiness. However, flexible office models and innovative product breakthroughs have become successful models, leading to success for their practitioners in every way. This study employed a mixed-methods approach, using questionnaires to collect data from 400 organizations across various industries. We also interviewed top managers in five cases. The results show that organizations that adopt flexible work significantly improve their ability to innovate. In technology, financial services, and manufacturing, organizations that work on innovative projects with at least one employee have shortened the overall time to market for new products while launching more successful products. Furthermore, improving employee quality of life is associated with higher levels of employee satisfaction, as employees enjoy their work more, which is beneficial for all parties involved. Furthermore, cyber leadership and digital collaboration technologies are key tools for the success of flexible work arrangements. The results of this study show that in terms of helping companies survive and thrive, adaptive work patterns are not only beneficial but also provide a competitive advantage for our organization over others in an already crowded market.

Abstract

This study examines the mediating role of Brand Image in the relationship between Celebrity Endorsers, Electronic Word of Mouth (E-WOM), and purchasing decisions among Generation Z consumers of MS GLOW skincare products in Semarang, Indonesia. Employing a quantitative approach with twenty measurement indicators across four constructs and using an accidental sampling technique, the study investigates how different communication sources influence Gen Z consumers’ perceptions and purchase behavior in the local skincare market. The findings reveal that Celebrity Endorsers neither significantly shape Brand Image nor directly influence purchasing decisions, indicating that celebrity-based persuasion has limited effectiveness for this consumer segment. In contrast, E-WOM exerts a positive and significant effect on both Brand Image and purchasing decisions, underscoring the importance of peer-generated information in building trust and guiding consumer choice. Brand Image is also found to significantly influence purchasing decisions and partially mediate the relationship between E-WOM and purchase behavior, while no mediating effect is observed in the relationship between Celebrity Endorsers and purchasing decisions. These results empirically demonstrate that, within the context of Gen Z skincare consumption in Semarang, peer communication plays a more decisive role than celebrity endorsement. Theoretically, this study refines branding and consumer behavior literature by clarifying the differentiated influence pathways of E-WOM and endorsement cues. Practically, the findings suggest that skincare brands targeting Gen Z should prioritize peer-based digital engagement strategies over celebrity-driven promotion.

Abstract

The increasingly fierce competition in the hotel industry in Makassar City requires hotels to improve the quality of service through strengthening the competence of human resources (HR) and providing adequate facilities to increase consumer satisfaction and hotel occupancy rates. This study aims to analyze the influence of human resource competencies and hotel facilities on hotel occupancy rates with consumer satisfaction as a mediating variable. The study used a quantitative approach with a survey method of 62-star hotel guests in Makassar City who were selected using convenience sampling techniques. Data was collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using the Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method to test the direct and indirect relationships between variables. The results of the study show that human resource competence has a positive and significant effect on hotel occupancy rates, but does not have a significant effect on consumer satisfaction so that satisfaction does not mediate the relationship. On the other hand, hotel facilities have a significant effect on consumer satisfaction, but do not have a direct effect on hotel occupancy rates, but have a significant indirect influence on occupancy rates through consumer satisfaction as a mediating variable. These findings suggest that improving the quality of facilities that are able to meet consumer expectations will increase customer satisfaction which ultimately drives an increase in hotel occupancy rates.

Abstract

The article examines the financial decision-making processes of female entrepreneurs in the culinary sector of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Gorontalo City, Indonesia, drawing on financial behavior theory. It highlights the critical role of MSMEs in the national economy, particularly the dominance of women in the culinary subsector, while identifying key challenges such as limited digital financial literacy, financial capability, and uncontrolled spending behavior. Using a quantitative approach with Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) via SmartPLS 4 software, the study analyzes data from 120 purposively sampled female entrepreneurs aged 20–50 years. The findings reveal that digital financial literacy significantly influences both financial capability and spending behavior, but it does not directly affect financial decision making. In contrast, financial capability and spending behavior exert strong positive and significant effects on financial decision making, with financial capability showing the strongest impact. The model demonstrates good fit (SRMR < 0.10), and measurement validity and reliability are adequately established after removing invalid indicators. The discussion attributes the non-significant direct link between digital financial literacy and decision making to the continued reliance on traditional business experience and hybrid practices among respondents. Overall, the study contributes theoretically by reinforcing a gender-sensitive financial decision-making framework and practically by offering insights for empowerment programs focused on enhancing digital financial literacy and financial management skills among female MSME owners.

Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of Shift-Left Testing within the Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC) and its implications for testing time efficiency and software quality in the Ruang Murid application. A quantitative case study design was applied using testing records, observation, documentation, and questionnaire data collected from the development team, including Software Quality Assurance staff, developers, and the project manager. Data were analysed using SPSS through validity and reliability testing, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and coefficient of determination analysis. The results show that after the adoption of Shift-Left Testing, the number of detected bugs increased by 54.39%, indicating broader and earlier defect discovery during the development cycle rather than a decline in product quality. Bug rate rose from 1.9 to 2.9 bugs per KLOC, while defect rate increased from 4.2% to 7.1%, both of which remained within acceptable quality thresholds. In addition, defect leakage was recorded at 10.37%, test coverage and test execution rate each reached 100%, and the test case pass rate was 50.51%. These findings suggest that the earlier involvement of the SQA team improved defect visibility, expanded testing coverage, and strengthened quality control across development stages, although further improvements are still needed to increase pass stability and overall testing confidence.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of Push, Pull, and Mooring (PPM) effects on the switching intention of Generation Z users of TikTok Shop in Indonesia. The rapid growth of social commerce, combined with regulatory changes that temporarily halted TikTok Shop operations in October 2023, triggered behavioral shifts among users. Applying the PPM framework, this study analyzes the extent to which push factors (e.g., dissatisfaction, high perceived price), pull factors (e.g., attractiveness of alternatives), and mooring factors (e.g., switching costs, subjective norms) influence users’ intention to switch platforms. Data were collected via a survey of 146 TikTok Shop users aged 17–27 who had used the platform prior to its closure. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) via SmartPLS 4.0. The results show that both push and pull effects significantly and positively influence switching intention, with the pull effect emerging as the dominant factor. However, mooring effects do not have a significant influence on switching intention and do not moderate the relationship between push/pull effects and switching intention. These findings offer insights into consumer behavior in social commerce and provide strategic implications for e-commerce platforms seeking to retain users in a competitive market.
