Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of halal tourism policies in West Nusa Tenggara Province (NTB), Indonesia, as part of its strategic agenda to become a Muslim-friendly tourism destination. Methodology/approach: Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of 32 scholarly articles published between 2021 and 2025, the study employs the CIPP evaluation framework (Context, Input, Process, Product) to analyze policy aspects. The review was conducted with halal tourism policies and how these policies contribute to sustainable tourism development. Results/findings: The findings reveal that NTB possesses strong geographical, cultural, and demographic advantages supporting halal tourism. However, challenges persist in human resource capacity, institutional coordination, and equitable distribution of outcomes. Policy formulation aligns well with both local and global demands, but implementation and monitoring require significant improvements. Conclusion: While NTB’s halal tourism policies have a solid foundation, enhancing execution and oversight is crucial for maximizing sustainable development benefits. Limitations: This study is limited by its reliance on secondary data from existing literature, which may not capture the most recent policy dynamics or on-the-ground realities. Contribution: The research contributes to public policy scholarship by providing a conceptual and evaluative synthesis of halal tourism policy effectiveness, highlighting areas for strategic improvement in Indonesia’s sustainable tourism development.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine how electronic word of mouth (eWOM) specifically information quality, quantity, and credibility influences purchase intention and customer loyalty among IndiHome subscribers in West Java. Additionally, it tests whether happiness moderates the relationship between purchase intention and loyalty. Methodology: The research employed a quantitative, cross-sectional design using stratified random sampling of 257 IndiHome subscribers across multiple municipalities in West Java. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed with Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to evaluate measurement validity, reliability, mediation, and moderation effects. Results/findings: Findings show that information quality and quantity significantly increase purchase intention, while credibility has no direct effect. Purchase intention strongly predicts loyalty. Quantity and credibility indirectly affect loyalty through intention, whereas quality does not. Happiness moderates intention–loyalty, strengthening the conversion of intention into sustained customer loyalty. Conclusion: The study concludes that clear and abundant eWOM cues are effective in shaping purchase intention, which serves as a key determinant of loyalty. Positive affect in the form of happiness amplifies this relationship, highlighting the importance of both cognitive and emotional drivers in loyalty formation. Limitations: The cross-sectional design limits causal inference, and reliance on self-reported measures may introduce bias. The provincial focus on West Java may also restrict generalizability. Contribution: This research extends eWOM theory by integrating informational attributes with affective moderation, offering both theoretical insights and managerial implications. Broadband providers are advised to improve information clarity, posting frequency, and service experiences that enhance customer happiness to foster sustainable loyalty.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to identify and propose an entrepreneurship and new business management model relevant for cultivating future industry leaders. The research emphasizes comparative insights into regional entrepreneurial ecosystems, focusing on Bandung Raya and Tasikmalaya Raya, to highlight strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for balanced regional development. Methodology: The study adopts a quantitative and comparative design, analyzing survey data from 76 respondents representing multiple sectors. Using descriptive statistics and ecosystem benchmarking, the research evaluates six domains of the entrepreneurial ecosystem finance, policy, culture, support, human capital, and market access to assess regional variations and strategic needsl. Results The collected data show that Bandung excels in entrepreneurial culture (84.20%), regulatory policy (81.25%), workforce (78.98%), and market access (85.23%), while Tasikmalaya Raya leads in ecosystem support (84.38%) but faces challenges in access to finance (71.25%) and markets (68.13%). Conclusions: The results confirm that entrepreneurial ecosystem disparities significantly affect business sustainability. Bandung’s mature ecosystem offers competitive advantages, while Tasikmalaya’s strong social support is insufficient to compensate for structural gaps in finance and human capital. Limitations: The study is limited to two regions in West Java, restricting generalizability. It also relies on self-reported survey data, which may introduce bias. Contribution: Therefore, enhancement strategies are required, including strengthening financial access, improving human resource quality, as well as digitalization and market expansion for entrepreneurs in Tasikmalaya Raya. With these measures, the entrepreneurial ecosystems in both regions can develop more evenly and contribute to overall regional economic growth.

Abstract

Purpose: This study explores how inclusive leadership and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives influence employee engagement and how psychological safety acts as a mediating factor. Methodology/approach: This study used quantitative research methodology. Data were analyzed using SmartPLS 4.0 from a sample of 151 participants who participated in this study between August and October 2024 from private, government, and service organizations in Indonesia. The questionnaire used Likert scales to collect quantitative data on the constructs of interest, including inclusive leadership, DEI initiatives, psychological safety, and work engagement Results/findings: The findings reveal that inclusive leadership and well-implemented DEI initiatives significantly enhance employee engagement, largely through the sense of psychological safety they foster. Employees who feel psychologically safe and confident in contributing ideas or expressing concerns without fear maintain higer levels of engagement in their work. Conclusions: The findings of this study provide actionable insights for practitioners and policymakers, suggesting that fostering psychological safety through inclusive leadership and DEI initiatives can be a strategic approach to improving employee engagement. Limitations: The study is limited by its reliance on self-reported data, a cross-sectional research design, and a focus on primarily service-related sectors in Indonesia, which restrict its generalizability.  Future research should address these limitations by adopting longitudinal designs and exploring diverse industries and cultural settings to validate and extend these findings. Contribution: This study enriches the literature on leadership, diversity and inclusion (DEI), and psychological safety by exploring their interconnected effects on employee motivation and performance. It urges companies to adopt inclusive leadership and DEI initiatives that foster a culture of authenticity, openness, and trust, enhancing overall organizational effectiveness.

The proposed model exhibited strong predictive ability for both employee empowerment and employee performance. Overall, the relationships examined in the study were consistently positive and significant. Conclusion: The research concludes that both transformational leadership and employee empowerment are crucial for enhancing employee performance in the hotel industry. The interaction between these factors significantly contributes to better performance outcomes Limitations: A limitation of the study is that it focuses solely on four-star hotels in Central Java, which may not be generalizable to other types of hotels or regions. Contribution: This study contributes to the fields of management and hospitality by providing insights into how leadership styles and employee empowerment can work together to boost employee performance. It is valuable for hotel managers, HR professionals, and researchers interested in improving workplace dynamics and performance in the hospitality industry.

Abstract

Purpose: During the COVID-19 pandemic, partial homeworking or hybrid working gained popularity among employees and employers across the world. Since then, many organisations continue to implement hybrid working as a high performing work practice (HPWP) to improve employee performance. This study explores the effects of hybrid working on employee work engagement on the scale of the level of energy, work involvement, concentration, and enthusiasm. This study also investigated the factors that influence employee engagement in hybrid work. Research methodology: Using a cross-sectional study design with snowballing sampling technique, interview data of twenty nine IT employees were collected. Interview data were analysed thematically using NVivo software. Results: The qualitative analysis of interview data reveals that despite some factors of homeworking that affect work engagement negatively, hybrid working has potentials to improve work engagement through increasing their work and family life balance and reducing commuting exhaustion. Conclusions: Hybrid working can enhance employee engagement by reducing commuting stress and supporting better work-life balance, particularly in terms of energy and flexibility. However, challenges such as communication barriers and work-family conflicts especially among female employees may hinder its effectiveness. With adequate organizational support and clear structure, hybrid working can serve as a strategic approach to boosting employee engagement. Limitations: Qualitative analysis of only twenty six sample of only one organization is not sufficient for generalizing. A quantitative analysis using data of broader sample may provide a result generalizable to other types of organizations or regions. Contribution: This study contributes to the understanding of factors that influence employee work engagement by emphasizing the benefits of hybrid working to improve employee engagement, an important facilitator of higher performance. Novelty: This research made a comparison between homeworking, onsite working and hybrid working, and explored the factors of different work arrangement that influence employee engagement, an area that has not received enough attention in the existing literature.
