The research employs a quantitative approach with an associative causal design, using a survey method and data collected through a questionnaire distributed to all 46 employees as respondents. The sampling technique used is saturated sampling, considering the small population size. Data analysis was performed using multiple linear regression analysis with validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests (normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and linearity) conducted beforehand to ensure model accuracy. The results indicate that transformational leadership, work motivation, and organizational culture each have a positive and significant effect on organizational commitment, both partially and simultaneously. Among the three variables, organizational culture shows the most dominant influence, indicating that strong organizational values and teamwork orientation play a key role in strengthening employee commitment. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.848 implies that 84.8% of the variation in organizational commitment can be explained by the three independent variables.

The results show that, partially, work stress has a negative but insignificant effect on productivity. In contrast, work discipline and work environment have a positive and significant effect on productivity. Simultaneously, the three variables significantly influence employee productivity, contributing 49.7% to the variance. These findings indicate that strengthening work discipline and creating a conducive work environment are dominant factors in improving productivity, while the effect of work stress remains inconsistent and requires further investigation in different organizational contexts.

This study aims to analyze the effect of member card usage on customer satisfaction at Bolly Department Store in Bima City. The research applied a quantitative approach with a survey method, where data were collected through questionnaires from 96 respondents selected using purposive sampling, specifically customers who owned a member card. The research instrument was tested using validity and reliability tests to ensure accuracy and consistency. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression, correlation coefficient, coefficient of determination, and t-test with the assistance of SPSS software. The findings indicate that the member card variable has a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction. This is evidenced by the t-test result, where the t-value (1.894) exceeded the t-table value (1.661). However, the coefficient of determination (R²) was only 0.029, meaning that the member card explains merely 2.9% of the variation in customer satisfaction, while 97.1% is influenced by other factors. Therefore, although the member card improves customer satisfaction, its contribution is relatively small, suggesting that additional and more comprehensive marketing strategies are needed.

MSMEs play a key role in the national economy, especially in increasing economic growth and creating new jobs. However, in the digital era, MSMEs face major problems, such as low levels of digital literacy, limited access to the internet, and fierce competition with large companies that have used technology before. This study examines the variables that influence the sustainability of MSMEs amidst digital challenges and finds methods that can be used so that MSMEs can survive and grow. The research method was carried out through surveys and direct interviews with MSME actors at Pasar Pagi Setia Budi, Medan, North Sumatra. The results of the study showed that most MSME actors did not utilize digital platforms for marketing and transactions, which resulted in decreased income. To increase competitiveness, MSMEs need to improve their digital knowledge, adopt online marketing strategies, and optimize the use of e-commerce and social media. Support from the government, financial institutions, and technology companies is also very important. In the increasingly competitive digital era, by implementing the right digitalization strategy, MSMEs can improve operational efficiency, expand market reach, and maintain the sustainability of their business.
