Using a qualitative method that combines literature review and in-depth interviews with three influencers, the study reveals significant distinctions in collaboration patterns, compensation systems, marketing flexibility, and legal assurance. The findings indicate that MSMEs exhibit higher adaptability and openness toward emerging creators, whereas corporations demonstrate stronger professionalism but lower responsiveness due to bureaucratic structures. The research further highlights persistent digital inequality shaped by differences in legal awareness, operational capacity, and marketing strategy. These findings imply the importance of enhancing MSME digital literacy, strengthening contractual governance, and improving regulatory responsiveness to ensure equitable participation in the digital market. Strengthening cooperative efforts between government, digital platforms, and influencer communities is essential for building a fairer and more inclusive e-commerce environment.

However, through adaptive and collaborative Public Relations strategies, Biker Jowo Depok has succeeded in maintaining its image as a professional, culturally-rooted, and socially conscious community.

Effective collaboration is a strategic imperative for contemporary organizations, yet its success hinges critically on team dynamics and underlying psychological factors like Trust and Psychological Safety. The purpose of this Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was to synthesize empirical research published between 2020 and 2025 to clarify how these psychological factors influence collaboration and team performance. Following the PRISMA guidelines, a rigorous search on Google Scholar using keywords such as "team performance," "psychological factors," and "collaboration" resulted in the final inclusion of 15 articles for in-depth synthesis. Findings confirm that Trust is the most vital psychological construct, acting as a crucial mediator: it successfully transmits the positive effects of Transactional Leadership on employee performance and, conversely, mediates the detrimental effect of Toxic Leadership leading to Employee Silence. Leadership Soft Skills and Emotional Intelligence are identified as primary antecedents that build perceived trustworthiness, which, in turn, significantly reduces Turnover Intention. The review also highlights emerging contexts: trust is now influenced by Agent-Related Factors in Human-AI Teams (HATs), and unconventional factors like Corporate Comedy are found to positively contribute to Group Cohesion. However, contradictory findings regarding trust's role in Knowledge Sharing suggest a significant research gap. This SLR concludes that building psychological capital is fundamental to effective collaboration and recommends that future research utilize Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to validate conceptual frameworks and employ mixed-methods approaches to resolve contextual conflicts within the literature.

The era of automation has brought profound changes to the educational landscape through the integration of intelligent technologies, artificial intelligence, and digital systems that increasingly shape learning processes. This transformation not only affects the interaction patterns between educators and learners but also shifts foundational educational values and introduces significant ethical challenges. In the context of Islamic education, these changes require a reformulation of relevant educational values to preserve learners’ moral and spiritual integrity. This study aims to analyze Islamic educational values in the age of automation and examine their ethical implications for strengthening character education. Through a comprehensive literature-based approach, the study finds that values such as amanah (trustworthiness), adl (justice), ihsan (excellence), mas’uliyyah (accountability), and mujahadah (perseverance) serve as essential instruments in building learners’ character so they can use technology wisely and responsibly. Furthermore, the study emphasizes that automation demands the integration of digital literacy and Islamic moral literacy to prevent dehumanization, digital plagiarism, technology dependence, and the decline of spiritual awareness. The findings indicate that character education grounded in Islamic values provides a strong ethical framework for addressing emerging moral risks in the digital era. Therefore, curriculum reconstruction, strengthening the role of educators as “digital murrabbi,” and the proportional use of technology aligned with maqāṣid al-syarī‘ah are required. This research contributes by offering a comprehensive Islamic ethical perspective as a foundational framework for the development of character education amid the rapid and inevitable acceleration of automation.
