2026-03-09T15:58:28+08:00

This study aims to analyze the influence of transformational leadership style and work motivation on member performance in Plantation Production Cooperatives in Banyuasin Regency, with job satisfaction as an intervening variable. The phenomenon of performance in cooperative organizations is crucial to study in order to understand how the role of leadership and internal motivation of employees can optimize organizational productivity. The research method used is quantitative with a population of 100 cooperative members. The sampling technique uses saturated sampling (census), where all members of the population are respondents. Primary data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method based on Partial Least Square (PLS). The results show that transformational leadership style and work motivation have a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. Furthermore, job satisfaction is proven to play a significant role as a mediating variable in linking leadership style and motivation to member performance. Statistical findings show the $R^2$ value for the job satisfaction variable of 0.975, which indicates that 97.5% of the variance in job satisfaction is explained by this model. Meanwhile, the R2 value for member performance reached 0.992, indicating that leadership style, motivation, and job satisfaction simultaneously explained 99.2% of the variance in member performance, while the remaining 0.8% was influenced by factors outside the research model. This study recommends enhancing aspects of transformational leadership to strengthen job satisfaction, which will ultimately maximize sustainable organizational performance.

The Effect Of Work Stress and Emotional Intelligence On Job Satisfaction And Its Impact On The Performance Of Nurses At Palembang Bari Regional General Hospital

2026-03-09T16:13:57+08:00

A hospital is an integral part of a health and social organisation with various functions, particularly in providing services, preventing, and treating diseases in the community. Nurses, as "the caring profession," play a crucial role in providing quality healthcare services in hospitals. Nurses are the most important human resource in hospitals due to their dominant number (55-65%), therefore, attention is needed to ensure nurse performance in carrying out their duties and functions in healthcare services to patients. A nurse's ability to manage emotions will determine the level of stress a nurse feels, which will then affect job satisfaction and ultimately affect their performance. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of work stress and emotional intelligence on job satisfaction and its impact on nurse performance at Palembang BARI Regional Hospital. This study used a Structural Equation Model (SEM) operated through the Partial Least Square (PSL) programme. The sampling technique in this study employed stratified random sampling with 73 samples. The results of the hypothesis test showed that job stress affects nurse job satisfaction at Palembang BARI Regional Hospital with a statistical t value of 3.744 > 1.96 or P Value 0.000 < 0.05. Emotional intelligence affects job satisfaction with a statistical t value of 5.276 > 1.96 or P Value 0.000 < 0.05. Job stress affects nurse performance with a statistical t value of 4.443> 1.96 or P Value 0.000 <0.05. Emotional intelligence influences performance with a t statistic of 3.286 > 1.96 or a P Value of 0.001 < 0.05. Job satisfaction influences nurse performance with a t statistic of 5.409 > 1.96 or a P Value of 0.000 < 0.05. The results of this study have implications for managerial policies that can be used as a reference by management in determining the priority scale of what policies should be implemented.

Eradicating Cultural Poverty In Sambas Regency Using A Partnership Model From The Perspective Of Islamic Development Economics

2026-05-01T10:52:17+08:00

The suboptimal state of economic development in Sambas Regency has resulted in the community living in cultural poverty, effectively sidelined amidst the abundance of natural resources in the region. Using the perspective of Islamic Development Economics, this study aims to formulate empowerment strategies that place justice and brotherhood as the main foundations for realising equitable and sustainable community welfare in Sambas Regency. The solution proposed is a Partnership Model for Community Economic Welfare Development that integrates the roles of the government, Sharia institutions, the private sector, and the community through the principles of Ta’awun and Syarikah. This model encompasses five strategic pillars: policy partnerships based on ukhuwah, Sharia investment and financing (mudharabah), expertise management (syarikah abdan), and collective entrepreneurship (syarikah al-inan). Through this synergy, it is hoped that an inclusive economic ecosystem will be created in Sambas Regency, where the community plays an active role as the primary agent in managing the region’s economic sovereignty in accordance with the principles of Maqashid al-Syariah.

2026-05-05T09:26:47+08:00

The presence of modern retail outlets in rural areas has the potential to influence the economic dynamics of MSME operators. This study aims to analyse the impact of the Abdussalam Supermarket on the economic activities of MSMEs in Pasak Village. The study employs a descriptive approach using both quantitative and qualitative methods through observation, interviews, and questionnaires administered to MSME operators in the vicinity of the supermarket. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, pre- and post-test comparisons regarding the supermarket’s presence, and linear regression analysis. The results indicate that the Abdussalam Supermarket has a dual impact. Its presence enhances business efficiency through easier access to raw materials, price stability, and local economic circulation; however, it also creates competition, leading to a decline in turnover for some SMEs. These findings suggest that the adaptability of business operators is a key factor in determining the economic impact experienced. The study concludes that the Abdussalam Supermarket acts as both a driver and a challenge for SMEs. Synergy between the supermarket management, SME operators, and the village government is required to optimise positive impacts and support sustainable local economic growth.

The Effectiveness Of Sharia Fintech Securities Crowdfunding (Scf Syariah) For Business Capital For Santripreneurs In Indonesia

2026-05-11T14:42:27+08:00

This study analyses the effectiveness of Sharia Securities Crowdfunding (SCF Syariah) as an innovative solution to the capital constraints faced by santripreneurs in Indonesia. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) covering the period 2020–2025, this study evaluates strategic opportunities and fundamental barriers within the pesantren ecosystem. The findings indicate that Sharia SCF possesses a competitive advantage due to its alignment with the principle of ta’awun and the implementation of profit-sharing contracts such as Mudharabah and Musyarakah, which are free from riba. However, its growth is hindered by low digital financial literacy among santri in developing business projections, regulatory gaps regarding information disclosure standards, and limited technological infrastructure in remote areas. This study concludes that Sharia SCF, through Mudharabah and Musyarakah contracts, is an innovative instrument aligned with the principle of ta’awun within the pesantren ecosystem. Although santripreneurs hold a strategic position in producing global commodities, the effectiveness of this financing remains hindered by low digital financial literacy and regulatory limitations regarding human resource standardisation and investor protection. Therefore, the success of Sharia SCF requires systemic readiness and stakeholder synergy to mitigate the risks of information asymmetry and strengthen the business accountability of Islamic boarding schools.
