Abstract

Galendo, a specialty product of Ciamis Regency, has great potential. However, amidst the digital economic transformation, Galendo MSMEs face several strategic issues that hinder their competitiveness. This study aims to explore digital branding strategies to increase the competitiveness of Galendo MSMEs, one of Ciamis's signature culinary products, and their contribution to local food security in the creative economy era. Despite having large market potential, the majority of Galendo MSMEs still rely on conventional marketing strategies, while consumer trends show a significant shift to digital platforms. This results in low visibility and competitiveness of Galendo compared to modern food products with stronger branding. This study uses an exploratory qualitative approach with a case study method. Informants were determined through purposive sampling, including Galendo MSME owners, digital marketing practitioners, the Ciamis Regency KUKMP Office, and consumers. The results show that Galendo MSMEs are beginning to realize the importance of digital branding, but still face limitations in digital literacy, content consistency, and brand differentiation strategies. On the other hand, significant opportunities exist through the use of social media, marketplaces, and local culture-based storytelling to build brand awareness, customer engagement, and brand differentiation. This research confirms that a targeted digital branding strategy not only strengthens the competitiveness of Galendo's MSMEs in the national market but also supports local food security by increasing demand and strengthening the supply chain for coconut, the primary raw material.

Abstract

The increasingly complex dynamics of the work environment require employees to possess a high level of adaptive capability. This study aims to analyze the effect of Creative Self-Efficacy, Learning Climate, and Organizational Trust on Adaptive Performance with Work Engagement as a mediating variable. This study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method on Generation Z employees in Surabaya. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results show that Creative Self-Efficacy and Organizational Trust have a positive and significant effect on Work Engagement, while Learning Climate does not show a significant effect. Furthermore, Work Engagement has a positive and significant effect on Adaptive Performance. The mediation test confirms that Work Engagement mediates the effect of Creative Self-Efficacy and Organizational Trust on Adaptive Performance but does not mediate the effect of Learning Climate. This study emphasizes the importance of personal and psychosocial resources in enhancing employees’ adaptive performance through work engagement.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the importance of employee job satisfaction as a strategic factor in increasing productivity and organizational sustainability, especially in companies with high operational complexity. The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of transformational leadership and work environment on employee job satisfaction with intrinsic motivation as a mediating variable. This study uses a quantitative approach with an explanatory research type. Data were collected through a questionnaire survey of employees at the research object and analyzed using multivariate statistical analysis with direct and indirect effect (mediation) testing. The results of the study indicate that transformational leadership and work environment have a positive and significant effect on intrinsic motivation and employee job satisfaction.Intrinsic motivation has also been shown to have a significant effect on job satisfaction and mediates the influence of transformational leadership and the work environment on job satisfaction. These findings confirm that improving job satisfaction is determined not only by structural factors but also by employees' psychological processes. This study concludes that organizations need to implement transformational leadership and create a supportive work environment to strengthen intrinsic motivation and sustainably enhance employee job satisfaction.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the urgency of effective archival management in supporting smooth administration and decision-making within organizations. In the digital transformation era, archives are no longer just static documents, but strategic assets that ensure accountability and efficiency. A qualitative descriptive research method was used, employing data collection techniques such as in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation studies. Data analysis involved data reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The study found that systematic archive management significantly improves administrative processes by reducing document retrieval time to under two minutes. Additionally, archives serve as vital tools in evidence-based policymaking, where leaders use authentic records to minimize risks and ensure the legality of decisions. However, the study also identified challenges, including limited human resource competencies and incomplete digital infrastructure integration. The study concludes that effective archive management is a critical pillar for good organizational governance. It is recommended that organizations enhance archival human resource capacity and invest in electronic archive systems to ensure operational continuity and support accurate decision-making in the future.

Abstract

This study examines the structural relationships among compensation, work discipline, motivation, and employee performance in the public sector. Motivated by issues such as suboptimal organizational performance, attendance problems, and compensation-related challenges, this research aims to analyze the direct and indirect effects of compensation and work discipline on employee performance, with motivation as a mediating variable. A quantitative research design using a survey method was applied, with a population of 90 civil servant employees selected through saturated sampling. Data were collected via a structured questionnaire using a five-point Likert scale and analyzed with Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings indicate that while compensation does not directly affect employee performance, it significantly boosts work motivation. Work discipline positively influences both motivation and performance. Additionally, work motivation plays a significant role in enhancing employee performance and mediates the relationship between compensation, work discipline, and performance. These results highlight the importance of psychological and behavioral mechanisms in shaping employee performance in public sector organizations. In conclusion, strengthening work discipline and increasing motivation are more effective strategies for improving performance than relying solely on financial compensation. This study contributes to behavioral-performance models by emphasizing the mediating role of motivation.
