This study examines the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in transforming human resource analytics and its impact on the performance of Generation Z employees in digital startup companies in Indonesia. The topic is relevant due to the rapid growth of startups and the increasing use of AI in human resource management. Generation Z, as a dominant workforce, is known for being digitally oriented, adaptable, and comfortable with data-driven environments, making it important to understand how AI-based analytics influence their performance. This research aims to analyze how AI tools improve decision-making, employee engagement, productivity, and performance evaluation. The study uses a quantitative approach with a survey involving Generation Z employees in digital startups. Data were analyzed using statistical methods to examine the relationship between AI-based HR analytics and employee performance. The results show that AI improves efficiency in recruitment, performance monitoring, and employee development, which positively affects productivity and job satisfaction. In addition, AI helps organizations make more accurate and strategic decisions. In conclusion, the use of AI in HR analytics plays an important role in improving employee performance and provides a competitive advantage for digital startups in Indonesia.

This study aims to analyze and synthesize prior research on navigating human resource capacity and accountability challenges in decentralized public finance through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR). The review focuses on how human resource capacity, fiscal autonomy, digital governance, and accountability mechanisms interact in shaping the effectiveness of decentralized public financial management. The SLR method was employed because it allows a structured and transparent synthesis of previous findings, identifies recurring patterns, and clarifies inconsistencies across studies. Literature was searched through the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), covering publications from 2022 to 2026, using combinations of keywords related to fiscal decentralization, human resource capacity, accountability, transparency, local government finance, and public financial management. The initial search identified 63 records, which were then screened based on title relevance, abstract suitability, research focus, publication year, full-text availability, and substantive alignment with the topic. After the selection process, 11 articles were retained for final review and analyzed through descriptive-qualitative synthesis. The findings indicate that decentralized public finance becomes more effective when supported by competent human resources, merit-based administration, strong internal control, adequate digital systems, and meaningful citizen participation. In contrast, weak technical capacity, fiscal dependence, fragmented institutions, and limited managerial autonomy repeatedly hinder accountability outcomes. This review contributes to the literature by reinforcing the capacity–accountability linkage as a central explanatory framework and by offering practical insight for policymakers and public administrators seeking to strengthen local fiscal governance in decentralized settings.

This study aims to examine the influence of financial technology literacy and behavioral bias on investment decisions among Generation Z, as well as to analyze the moderating role of Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) in the digital economy era. The rapid development of digital financial platforms has increased accessibility to investment opportunities, particularly for younger generations. However, this ease of access is often accompanied by psychological factors that may lead to irrational decision-making. This research adopts a quantitative approach using a survey method, with data collected from Generation Z respondents who actively use financial technology for investment purposes. The data are analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) to identify the relationships between variables and the moderating effect of FoMO. The findings indicate that financial technology literacy has a significant positive effect on investment decisions, as individuals with higher literacy levels tend to make more informed and rational choices. Conversely, behavioral biases such as overconfidence, herd behavior, and loss aversion significantly influence investment decisions in a less rational direction. Furthermore, FoMO is found to strengthen the relationship between behavioral bias and investment decisions, suggesting that individuals with higher FoMO are more likely to be influenced by market trends and social pressures. The study highlights the importance of improving financial literacy and managing psychological factors to promote more rational investment behavior among Generation Z in the digital economy.

The growing convergence of digital transformation and sustainability governance has intensified organizational pressure to achieve long-term competitiveness while responding to technological disruption, environmental uncertainty, and stakeholder expectations. Although AI-driven organizational systems and ESG-oriented practices are widely promoted as strategic drivers of sustainable performance, empirical findings regarding their effectiveness remain inconsistent across organizational contexts. This study addresses this theoretical and empirical inconsistency by examining the role of Organizational Agility as a strategic mechanism linking AI-Driven Human Resource Management (AI-Driven HRM) and ESG Practices to Business Sustainability within the telecommunications industry. Drawing upon Dynamic Capability Theory, the study challenges deterministic assumptions suggesting that technological adoption and sustainability governance automatically generate sustainable organizational outcomes. A quantitative explanatory design was employed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Data were collected from 150 employees working in telecommunications companies in Jakarta, Indonesia, through purposive sampling and structured questionnaire distribution. The findings reveal that ESG Practices significantly enhance Organizational Agility, while Organizational Agility substantially strengthens Business Sustainability. Conversely, AI-Driven HRM does not significantly influence Organizational Agility or Business Sustainability directly, indicating the existence of an organizational capability gap within digital transformation processes. Furthermore, Organizational Agility significantly mediates the relationship between ESG Practices and Business Sustainability, whereas its mediating role in the relationship between AI-Driven HRM and Business Sustainability is not statistically significant. These findings demonstrate that sustainable organizational performance is shaped less by technological implementation itself and more by the organization’s adaptive capability to transform sustainability-oriented governance into responsive strategic behavior. The study contributes theoretically by extending Dynamic Capability Theory through a capability-based sustainability perspective that positions Organizational Agility as a strategic conversion mechanism within digitally transforming organizations. Practically, the findings provide strategic insights for organizations seeking to strengthen sustainable competitiveness in increasingly volatile and technology-driven business environments.
