The implementation of educational financial management is crucial as part of the commitment to progress that is the focus of this study, with the aim of examining financial management based on the principles of effectiveness, efficiency, transparency, and accountability in the 'Aje Kendor Sekolah' program using Public Financial Management Theory and Policy Implementation Theory. This study uses a qualitative research method with Creswell's case study approach. The research findings indicate that budget management aligns with formal procedures, but planning is not yet fully participatory. The reporting system is structured, but community involvement in oversight remains symbolic. The presence of collaboration among various stakeholders has not addressed the shortages in facilities and funding. Therefore, these shortages need to be addressed to encourage sustained school participation in the future.

This study discusses the contribution of zakat in improving the economic welfare of society through the perspective of Islamic business management. The persistence of social and economic inequality across various segments of society underscores the importance of optimizing zakat management. In Islamic thought, zakat is not only a spiritual obligation but also a means of wealth redistribution that can strengthen the economic structure of the ummah. This research employs a library research method with a qualitative approach, analyzing various relevant sources to formulate efficient zakat management strategies that align with Sharia principles. The analysis reveals that the application of Islamic management principles—such as planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling—plays a crucial role in enhancing the effectiveness of zakat distribution, particularly in the form of productive zakat. Additionally, strengthening technological aspects, improving education for zakat managers (amil), collaborating with local institutions, and conducting intensive public outreach are complementary strategies relevant to the current context. The study concludes that professionally managed, integrated zakat administration based on Sharia values holds significant potential to serve as a sustainable driver for improving societal welfare.

Office management is a key component in ensuring the effectiveness and efficiency of administrative services in both public and educational institutions. The increasing demands for service speed, accuracy, transparency, and professionalism necessitate an integrated and adaptive office management system. This study aims to explore how office management contributes to enhancing administrative service quality through a library research approach. Data were obtained from academic journals, theses, institutional reports, and theoretical literature. The analysis reveals that effective office management encompasses structured planning, proper document management, digital information systems, and staff competency development, all of which contribute significantly to improved service quality. Moreover, standard operating procedures and the integration of manual and digital systems enhance consistency and service reliability. The study supports the theoretical proposition that office management functions planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling are directly correlated with administrative performance indicators. Practical implications include the urgency of digitizing records, implementing standardized workflows, and continuously training administrative personnel. Limitations of this research lie in its purely conceptual and literature-based nature, thus future studies are recommended to adopt empirical or mixed methods approaches for broader generalizability. These findings reaffirm the importance of repositioning office management from a support function to a strategic pillar in administrative service improvement efforts.

This research analyzes the strategies and collaboration between guidance and counseling teachers and homeroom teachers in addressing problematic students at SMP Negeri 4 Medan.

Nevertheless, challenges such as limited time, differences in role perceptions, and lack of structured communication forums still hinder optimal collaboration. The study concludes that comprehensive and coordinated collaboration is essential for effective management of student problems in schools.

Organizational Design is the process of determining the structure, layout, and relationships between parts of an organization to achieve goals and increase efficiency. This process includes planning the organizational structure, division of responsibilities, and how tasks are carried out. Organizational design is dynamic and needs to be adjusted to the development and needs of the organization. Advances in technology and organizational culture play an important role in organizational development. A strong and positive organizational culture can increase employee motivation, engagement, and commitment, which have a positive impact on productivity, efficiency, and innovation. Therefore, the preparation of organizational design is very important in determining the right strategy. A well-designed organizational structure can facilitate the exchange of knowledge, communication between members, and uphold employee moral and professional standards. This study uses a literature study method with the PRISMA approach, using data sources from the ScienceDirect database in the last three years. The results of the study show that strategies in organizations must be formulated and implemented in an organized manner to achieve predetermined goals, while paying attention to the existing organizational culture. A flexible and up-to-date organizational structure allows organizations to adapt more quickly to change. Therefore, organizations need to continue to develop and update their organizational structures to remain relevant and effective in achieving their goals.

This paper provides a comprehensive examination of the concept and implementation of skill management as a cohesive set of competencies encompassing technical, interpersonal, conceptual, and strategic skills within organizational and entrepreneurial contexts. The background highlights the critical role of skill management in addressing the challenges posed by a highly competitive and rapidly evolving business environment, where mastery of these competencies determines both individual and organizational effectiveness in planning, organizing, leading, and controlling resources to achieve collective objectives. Grounded in a literature review of seminal works by Robbins & Coulter, Katz, Drucker, Mintzberg, Armstrong, and Barney & Hesterly, this study adopts a structured approach that covers definitions, classification of skill types, their roles in organizations, development strategies, implementation challenges, and applications in entrepreneurship. The findings indicate that: (1) technical, human, and conceptual skills are complementary across different managerial levels; (2) skill development requires a blend of formal education, field practice, mentorship, and technology utilization; (3) primary challenges include technological adaptation, complexity of decision-making, and limitations in training resources; and (4) in entrepreneurial ventures, effective skill management is fundamental to planning, finance, human resources, innovation, and communication. In conclusion, skill management should not be viewed as a static competency but as a strategic asset that must be continuously enhanced through lifelong learning, enabling both individuals and organizations to sustain growth and resilience in the era of globalization and digital transformation.

Mount Batur's jeep tourism has recently become one of the most in-demand natural tourism activities in Bali. However, behind its popularity, there is a lack of understanding regarding the management pattern and collaborative mechanisms among local actors. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of community-based tourism governance in Batur jeep tourism through a qualitative descriptive method using observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research finds that while the community plays a central role in operations, there is still a semi-formal governance structure with limited documentation and control mechanisms. From the perspective of the POAC management approach, the practices excel in execution (actuating) but are weak in planning and controlling. In terms of visitor experience, the tourism product already incorporates entertainment and escapism dimensions but lacks strong educational and aesthetic components. The study concludes that the jeep tourism in Batur has succeeded in mobilizing local resources and building an economic movement, yet it requires the strengthening of management structures, storytelling-based education, and environmentally sound standard operating procedures (SOPs). These steps are essential to ensure sustainability and long-term tourist satisfaction.

Social media, particularly Instagram, has become a strategic medium for government institutions to disseminate policy-related information to the public. This study aims to analyze how visual elements are applied in educational infographic content on the Instagram account @ditjentataruang, specifically in the January 2025 edition, using the theory of visual hierarchy. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with data collected through visual observation, in-depth interviews with the content designer, and documentation. Four infographic posts were selected as the subjects of analysis, each examined based on elements of color, typography, layout and composition, and visual imagery. The results indicate that the use of visual elements in the infographics is not arbitrary, but designed with a clear visual communication strategy. Green is consistently used as the institution's visual identity and a marker of visual stability. Typography is structured hierarchically to guide the reading flow, and layouts are designed using Z or C patterns to direct audience attention. In addition, visualizations such as icons and photographs are used to reinforce messages and create concrete context. These findings are strengthened through data triangulation involving observation, interviews, and supporting theories, confirming that the infographic content by the Directorate General of Spatial Planning applies the principles of visual hierarchy consciously and strategically in delivering public information.

Other weaknesses include limited market access and low utilization of modern agricultural technologies. The study concludes that program effectiveness heavily depends on sustained community participation across all stages and structural support from the government and assisting institutions. Future research is recommended to explore technology-based empowerment models combined with the strengthening of local institutions to better adapt to the needs of rural communities in remote areas.

The issue of fairness in regional development in Indonesia remains a significant challenge, particularly concerning the disparities between urban and rural areas, Java and outside Java, as well as between the western and eastern regions of Indonesia. This imbalance reflects an uneven distribution of investments influenced by the national political-economic structure. The sectoral development approach has been deemed inadequate in addressing these disparities, making the regional-based approach an alternative option to prioritize development in accordance with local potential. Several regional growth theories, such as the export base theory, resource advantage theory, and neoclassical approach, assert that a region's economic growth heavily depends on the availability of natural resources, labor, capital, and technological innovation. The primary indicator for assessing growth and economic well-being in society is Gross Domestic Product (GDP) The increase in GDP accompanied by a decrease in the unemployment rate serves as an indicator of successful development. Therefore, the strengthening of regional development needs to be accompanied by equitable investment strategies and approaches that are appropriate to local characteristics so that the growth achieved can be inclusive and fair.
