Abstract

Research Aims: This research aimed to analyse the efficiency measurement on the effectiveness of train and wagon maintenance in three Decision Making Units (DMU) of Balai Yasa of Indonesian Railways Company (KAI). It focused on both output and input orientations and the effectiveness of production. Design: The research methodology was descriptive and quantitative, employing data envelopment analysis (DEA) and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). The input variables were maintenance costs, spare parts inventory and people operating hours, while the output variable was OEE. A stepwise approach with backward method steps was used to examine the relationship between effectiveness and efficiency. Findings: The results showed that DMU 2 was efficient, while DMUs 1 and 3 were not yet efficient. This indicated that the more effective an organisation is, the more efficient it is. DMU 2 has the highest effectiveness value at 86.19%, while DMUs 1 and 3 had values of less than 85%, indicating the need for improvement in their production departments. Theoretical Contribution: A stepwise approach uses a forward method, adding revenue variables that have not been implemented in previous studies. Managerial Implications in the Southeast Asian Context: Efficacy and revenue have a significant impact on organisational efficiency, which means that if the revenue is high and the organisation is effective, organisational efficiency will be high. Research Limitation and Implications: This research is limited to DMUs, and its focus is on improving the effectiveness and efficiency of the train and wagon maintenance program in Java. The scope can be expanded to Sumatra and/or a comparison with other Southeast Asian countries by considering the characteristic differences of their operations and economies.

Abstract

Research Aims: This study aimed to analyze the effect of workforce agility on innovative behavior, the effect of digital literacy and psychological conditions on workforce agility, and the role of digital literacy and psychological conditions as moderator variabels on the relationship between workforce agility and innovative behavior. Design/methodology/approach: The type of data collected was primary data using an online questionnaire. The sampling method was purposive sampling technique. The collected data were then processed and analyzed using SEM-PLS. Research Findings: The results of this study indicated that workforce agility had a positive effect on innovative behavior. Digital literacy and psychological conditions also had positive effect on workforce agility. However, only psychological conditions had a moderating effect on the relationship between workforce agility and innovative behavior. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: The results of this study illustrates how workforce agility affects innovative behavior. The use of digital technology through good digital literacy will further encourage the creation of industrial innovations. Managerial Implication in the South East Asian context: Organisations should build massive collaboration among various industry players in all sectors, by encouraging workforce agility in order to create industrial innovations. Research limitation & implications: This study has uneven number of samples in each industry. Future studies can consider sampling where each industrial sector can have sufficient sample similarity so comparisons can be made.

Abstract

Research Aims: This study aims to examine the moderating role of leader autonomy support (LAS) in the indirect relationship between cognitive flexibility and calling through job crafting. Design/methodology/approach: Data were collected through an online survey from employees who have been working at a private company for a minimum of one year. Using a convenience sampling method, data were collected from a total of 140 respondents. Data were analysed in SPSS using a moderated mediation model. Research Findings: The results showed that LAS moderated the indirect effect of cognitive flexibility on calling through job crafting. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: This study illustrates the complex relationship between cognitive flexibility, job crafting, and LAS as the antecedents of calling by drawing on career construction theory (CCT), while simultaneously emphasising the importance of situational factors (i.e., LAS) in finding a calling, especially for employees. Managerial Implication in the South East Asian context: Companies are expected to put more effort into understanding the role of individual and situational factors in their employees' journey toward finding a calling. Specifically, leaders' support for employees' job crafting should be strengthened to facilitate employees in discerning their work as a calling. Research limitations & implications: This study has limitations regarding the data collection, as it only uses a cross-sectional design. Additionally, this study only examines the antecedents of calling through employees' perception.

Abstract

Research Aims: This study aims to examine the effect of visual packaging and perceived emotional value on purchase intention of Islamic-branded cosmetics. Design/Methodology/Approach: The data were collected from an online survey of selected respondents. By using the purposive sampling technique, the respondents were limited to those who knew of or have used Islamic-branded cosmetics. The data were analysed using the PLS-SEM method. Research Findings: Altogether, this study's sample comprised 257 respondents and found that visual packaging of Islamic-branded cosmetics positively affects perceived emotional value and attitude. However, the results also indicate that visual packaging exerts no significant effect on purchase intention. Moreover, this study also found that perceived emotional value and attitude strongly affected consumers' purchase intention with Islamic-branded cosmetics. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: Most studies on halal or Islamic-branded cosmetics have focussed on religiosity, ingredients and safety, but little attention has been paid to packaging. Therefore, this study contributes to the literature by examining visual packaging's effect on perceived emotional value, attitudes and purchase intention. Managerial Implications in the Southeast Asian Context: Managers of Islamic-branded cosmetics in Indonesia should consider developing strategies to make their packaging visually attractive. The managers also are encouraged to focus on creating emotional value in Islamic-branded cosmetics packaging. Research Limitations and Implications: This study has a limitation in terms of questionnaire distribution. Most of the respondents in this study are students under 20 years old, and most are from Java island.

Abstract

Research Aims: The study aims to examine the influence of financial literacy on the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Malaysia. Design/methodology/approach: The data were obtained from questionnaires distributed to 200 SME managers/owners. Multiple regression analysis was applied to test the influence of financial literacy on SMEs performance by controlling manager profile and SME-specific characteristics. Research Findings: Multiple regression results prove that financial literacy has a positive and significant impact on SMEs' performance. Managers/owners with financial literacy skills understand business-related financial concepts, including debt, savings, takaful, insurance, and investment, which ensure the good performance of their business. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: Similar research has been conducted outside Malaysia. However, there is a need to validate the financial literacy and SME performance relationship in the Malaysian environment due to differences in culture; ways of thinking; and legal, business, and political situations. These differences lead to different responses which then contribute to the way the effect of financial literacy on SME performance is explained. In addition, this study improves the consistency of the existing evidence on SME performance and expands the scope of the Resource-Based View (RBV) from the perspective of SMEs Research limitation & implications: Government agencies such as SME Corporation recognise the importance of financial literacy among entrepreneurs. Therefore, proactive efforts need to be accelerated to provide an adequate level of financial literacy among entrepreneurs. Furthermore, entrepreneurial finance can be introduced in formal and non-formal education to ensure that every layer of society enjoys the benefits regardless of their economic status.

Abstract

Research Aims: This study aims to highlights the role of innovative work behavior (IWB) in determining task performance. The main antecedents of IWB, namely work autonomy and individual global mindset, are discussed, as well as how these two key factors will detemine the degree of individual innovative behavior. Design/Methodology/Approach: This study uses a cross-sectional design with convenience sampling methods to collect primary data and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) to test the hypothetical model and analyse the data. Research Findings: As many as 309 points of data were received; following screening and selection protocols, the final dataset consisted of 284 responses from employees in innovation center units of a leading ICT company in Indonesia. Findings of this study indicate a positive effect of work autonomy, individual global mindset, and task performance with regard to the mediating effect of IWB. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: This study contributes in defining the positive effects of work autonomy and individual global mindset on IWB and closing the gap regarding the role of IWB in mediating the effect of work autonomy and individual global mindset upon task performance. Managerial Implications in the Southeast Asian Context: As the local market is no longer sufficient to achieve further growth, competing firms need to enter the international or global market; this can be achieved through improved performance resulting from highly innovative behavior. Research Limitations & Implications: Limitations include the limited response rate due to the work-from-home policy during the pandemic, as well as generalizability issues. The current study invite further exploration in terms of the possibilities to elaborate more antecedents for innovative work behavior.

Abstract

Research Aims: This study investigates the mediating role of trust in explaining the effect of learning orientation and market orientation on the export performance of small and medium enterprise (SME) exporters in emerging markets. Design/methodology/approach: Survey data from 193 Malaysian SME exporters were used to test a series of hypothesised relationships. The sample was derived from the directory of the Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers, which consists of Malaysian wholly owned cross-industry manufacturing SMEs with 10-200 full-time employees. The instrument was developed using existing scales, and the research model was estimated using partial least square structural equation modelling. Research Findings: The findings reveal that trust is directly related to export performance. Learning creates dynamism in firms' processes and enables the utilisation of information in a way that allows firms to respond to the variability of customers' needs. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: This study contributes to theoretical development by highlighting the role of learning in the relationship between market orientation and trust between SME exporters and foreign importers. Managerial Implications in the Southeast Asian Context: Managers of small businesses in Southeast Asia should not be disconcerted by the smallness and limited resources of their firms. In an environment characterised by rapid market changes, SMEs must rely on dynamic capabilities to develop their competencies and leverage foreign partner resources. Research Limitations & Implications: First, the responses were mainly obtained from exporters. This is in contrast to a dyadic relationship, which concerns interactions between partners: exporters and importers. Second, this study is limited by its context, which is the manufacturing sector.
