nment. The study used a quantitative approach with a survey method by distributing questionnaires to 360 ASN consisting of Civil Servants (PNS) and Government Employees with Work Agreements (PPPK). The sampling technique used proportionate stratified random sampling, while data analysis was carried out using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with the help of SmartPLS 4. The results showed that Career Development, Culture Value, and Emotional Intelligence had a positive and significant effect on Self-Efficacy. In addition, these three variables also have a positive and significant effect on Personal Branding. Self-Efficacy was proven to have a positive and significant effect on Personal Branding and was able to significantly mediate the influence of Career Development, Culture Value, and Emotional Intelligence on Personal Branding. The coefficient of determination value shows that the model is able to explain 70.1% of the variation in Self-Efficacy and 76.8% of the variation in Personal Branding. The findings of this study indicate that strengthening the career development system, internalizing organizational cultural values, and increasing emotional intelligence can increase the self-confidence of ASN which ultimately strengthens Personal Branding in carrying out tasks and public services. This study provides an empirical contribution to the development of public sector human resource management, particularly in efforts to improve the professionalism and image of the apparatus through strengthening internal organizational factors.

y on the competitiveness of salt farmers. A quantitative explanatory survey was conducted with 100 active salt farmers. The three constructs were measured using a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed through multiple linear regression. Market access had a positive and statistically significant effect on competitiveness (p < 0.05), indicating that broader buyer networks, timely price information, alternative marketing channels, and stronger negotiating opportunities improve farmers’ ability to reach markets and sustain sales. Logistics efficiency also had a positive and significant effect (p < 0.05); reliable transportation, lower distribution costs, appropriate storage, proper handling, and shorter delivery times help preserve quality and reduce avoidable losses. The simultaneous test confirmed that both variables jointly affected competitiveness (p < 0.05). These findings indicate that increasing production alone is insufficient when farmers cannot reach profitable markets through efficient product flows. Collective marketing, transparent market information, shared storage, coordinated transportation, and direct relationships with processing industries are therefore essential for strengthening farmers’ bargaining power and market performance

nal performance. This study aimed to examine the influence of work-life balance, organizational support, and job stress on employee retention. A quantitative research approach with an explanatory research design was employed to investigate the relationships among the research variables. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed to 150 employees selected using an appropriate sampling technique. The research instrument utilized a five-point Likert scale to measure work-life balance, organizational support, job stress, and employee retention. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, and multiple linear regression analysis with the assistance of Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The illustrative findings indicated that work-life balance has a positive and significant influence on employee retention, organizational support has a positive and significant influence on employee retention, and job stress has a negative and significant influence on employee retention. Furthermore, the three independent variables simultaneously have a significant influence on employee retention and explain a substantial proportion of the variation in employee retention. Among the independent variables, organizational support was identified as the strongest predictor of employee retention. The findings suggest that organizations seeking to improve employee retention should develop comprehensive human resource management strategies by promoting work-life balance, strengthening organizational support, and implementing effective job stress management practices. Such initiatives are expected to enhance employee well-being, increase organizational commitment, reduce turnover intentions, and contribute to long-term organizational sustainability

licy outcomes but also by the quality of governance practices implemented by local governments. This study aimed to examine the influence of policy transparency, public participation, bureaucratic responsiveness, service quality, and public trust on the perceived effectiveness of local economic policy. A quantitative research approach with an explanatory research design was employed. Primary data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed to 200 respondents selected using purposive sampling. The collected data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), including descriptive statistics, validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression analysis, the coefficient of determination (R²), t-tests, and F-tests. The results revealed that all measurement instruments were valid and reliable, and the data satisfied the assumptions required for multiple linear regression analysis. The findings indicated that policy transparency, public participation, bureaucratic responsiveness, service quality, and public trust each have a positive and significant influence on the perceived effectiveness of local economic policy. Furthermore, the F-test demonstrated that all independent variables simultaneously have a significant effect on the dependent variable. Among the five predictors, public trust was identified as the strongest determinant of perceived policy effectiveness. The study concludes that strengthening good governance practices through transparency, citizen participation, responsive bureaucracy, high-quality public services, and institutional trust can substantially improve public perceptions of local economic policy effectiveness. These findings provide practical implications for local governments in designing and implementing more effective, accountable, and citizen-oriented economic policies

ycle management and optimal funding supported by internal company characteristics. The research problem proposed is to determine how to achieve increased profitability in an automotive distributor company through the efficiency factors of Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC), Firm Size (Firm Size), Leverage (DER), and historical profitability factors (ROA_Lag). The sample of this study is the financial statements of PT New Ratna Motor (Nasmoco Group) in Semarang City for the 2021-2024 period, which were transformed into quarterly data (N=16). The results of data analysis indicate that this research model has a good level of feasibility (goodness of fit) with the ability to explain variations in profitability (Adjusted R Square) of 78.1% and successfully overcome autocorrelation interference. Simultaneously, there is a strong relationship between the independent variables and the company's profit movements. Partially, the Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC) variable is proven to have a negative and significant effect on profitability, while the Firm Size and Leverage variables have not shown a significant effect at the 95% confidence level.
Abstract:This study examines the Indonesian capital market reaction to the announcement of the appointment of Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa as Minister of Finance on September 8, 2025. Using an event study approach, the analysis focuses on…
n companies included in the LQ45 index and observes market reaction within an eleven-day event window from five trading days before to five trading days after the announcement. Market reaction is measured using abnormal return, trading volume activity, and stock volatility. The data consist of daily stock prices, trading volume, outstanding shares, and market index data obtained from capital market data sources. Because the normality test indicates that the data are not normally distributed, the hypotheses are tested using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The findings show significant differences in abnormal return, trading volume activity, and stock volatility before and after the announcement. These results indicate that the appointment of the Minister of Finance contains information value for investors and is associated with changes in price reaction, trading intensity, and perceived market risk among LQ45 stocks. The study contributes to event study literature by documenting market responses to a strategic fiscal leadership event in an emerging capital market

d Public Companies regarding the receipt and distribution of funds. The complexity of funding and financing relationships between financial service actors creates concentration risks that have the potential to disrupt financial system stability. Experiences from the 1998 Indonesian crisis and the 2008 global financial crisis demonstrate that concentration of exposures and interconnectedness between entities can exacerbate systemic risk. This study aims to identify current supervisory data analysis practices and propose the development of a concentration risk analysis that integrates the loan exposures of large debtor groups with their funding sources. The study used a qualitative approach through interviews, observations, and document analysis. The results indicate that OJK supervisors need an integrated concentration risk analysis across various LJKs and customer groups. Currently, the analysis process is still carried out manually, resulting in inconsistent results and difficult to replicate. The implementation of Supervisory Technology (SupTech) can improve supervisory effectiveness while transforming supervisors' tacit knowledge into explicit knowledge that is documented, standardized, and easily shared. This research contributes to the development of technology-based risk monitoring and knowledge management models in the financial services sector.

e sustainability of local media businesses amid digital disruption. The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation studies involving newsroom managers, editors, and journalists from both media organizations. The findings indicate that Tribun Pekanbaru and Riau Pos have adopted different newsroom convergence strategies. Tribun Pekanbaru has implemented an integrated newsroom model that combines Cross Media Newsroom and Integrated Media Newsroom approaches, emphasizing digital-first production and multi-platform content distribution. Meanwhile, Riau Pos continues to maintain a separated newsroom model between print and digital divisions, reflecting a gradual adaptation process toward digital transformation. The study further reveals that these differences are influenced not only by technological factors and organizational culture but also by economic considerations. Tribun Pekanbaru develops an integrated newsroom to improve production efficiency and expand digital content monetization, while Riau Pos maintains separated newsrooms because print media remains a significant source of company revenue. This study concludes that newsroom convergence has evolved beyond a technological transformation into an economic adaptation strategy for local media organizations. The findings suggest that newsroom convergence enables media companies to improve operational efficiency, broaden audience reach, optimize resource utilization, and strengthen business sustainability in an increasingly competitive digital environment.
