This study aims to analyze the influence of leadership style, work environment, and workload on employee performance at PT BFI Finance Indonesia Tbk, Semarang Branch, using the Job Demands–Resources (JD-R) Theory as its underlying framework. The JD-R model posits that employee performance and well-being depend on the balance between job demands and job resources. The research employed a quantitative explanatory approach involving 56 employees from the Central Operation division, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS version 21. The results reveal that leadership style and work environment have positive and significant effects on employee performance, while workload has a significant negative effect. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.673 indicates that the three variables collectively explain 67.3% of employee performance variation. Respondents perceived that communication and support from leaders were strong, and social relations in the workplace were positive, although workload and performance targets were considered relatively high. These findings reinforce the JD-R Theory (Bakker & Demerouti, 2017), showing that leadership and work environment function as job resources that enhance motivation and performance, whereas excessive workload represents job demands that may hinder employee outcomes if not properly managed. Practically, organizations in the financial services sector should maintain a balance between job demands and job resources to achieve sustainable employee performance improvement.

Cryptocurrency has become a rapidly developing digital asset class that attracts widespread investor interest due to its decentralized, anonymous, and highly volatile nature. Such volatility creates uncertainty in market movements, making it important to understand the factors that drive fluctuations in returns. This research aims to examine how fundamental indicators namely price, trading volume, and market capitalization affect return volatility, as well as to determine which cryptocurrency demonstrates the highest market efficiency based on risk assessment. The study uses panel data covering the five largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether, USD Coin, and Binance Coin) over the period 2019–2023. The analytical methods applied include panel data regression to identify the determinants of volatility and Value at Risk (VaR) to measure asset risk and efficiency. The findings show that price and trading volume positively and significantly increase return volatility, whereas market capitalization exerts a negative and significant effect, indicating its stabilizing role. Based on VaR analysis, Binance Coin (BNB) emerges as the asset with the highest market efficiency. The study concludes that fundamental indicators play a crucial role in shaping volatility and that BNB offers relatively better risk performance compared to its peers.

This study is grounded in the Marketing Mix Theory (4P) proposed by McCarthy, which explains that marketing performance is influenced by the effective integration of product, price, place, and promotion strategies. The purpose of this study is to analyze and empirically examine the effect of the 4P marketing mix—product strategy, pricing strategy, place strategy, and promotion strategy—on increasing sales of mobile coffee businesses using electric bicycle carts in Semarang City. A quantitative research approach was employed using an accidental sampling technique, with respondents consisting of consumers who met the research criteria and were encountered directly in the field. Primary data were collected through questionnaire distribution, resulting in 85 valid respondents. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26, including validity tests, reliability tests, and classical assumption tests (normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity). Hypothesis testing was performed using multiple linear regression analysis, partial tests (t-test), simultaneous tests (F-test), and the coefficient of determination (R²). The results indicate that product strategy and pricing strategy have a positive and significant effect on increasing mobile coffee sales. Place strategy also shows a significant influence on sales performance, highlighting the importance of mobility and strategic selling locations. Furthermore, promotion strategy has a positive and significant effect on sales increase. Simultaneously, the F-test results confirm that product, price, place, and promotion strategies collectively have a significant effect on increasing mobile coffee sales using electric bicycle carts in Semarang City. These findings support the applicability of the Marketing Mix Theory (4P) in explaining sales performance in mobile and small-scale coffee businesses.

Engine performance is a critical parameter in automotive engineering as it directly affects power output, torque characteristics, and overall vehicle efficiency. One of the components that significantly influences engine performance is the exhaust system, which regulates exhaust gas flow and back pressure. This study aims to experimentally analyze the effect of replacing a standard exhaust system with an aftermarket exhaust system on the performance of a 2NR-VE engine. The research employed an experimental method using a comparative design with two testing conditions: a factory-standard exhaust system and an aftermarket exhaust system. Engine performance testing was conducted using a dynamometer (dyno test) to measure horsepower and torque across various engine speed ranges (RPM). Each testing condition was performed repeatedly, and the resulting data were averaged to reduce measurement errors and minimize the influence of operational fluctuations. The experimental results indicate that the aftermarket exhaust system significantly improves engine performance. The maximum power increased from 82.5 HP to 91.6 HP, while the maximum torque rose from 131.2 Nm to 154.4 Nm. These improvements suggest that the aftermarket exhaust configuration effectively reduces exhaust back pressure and enhances exhaust gas flow efficiency. Therefore, replacing the exhaust system can be considered an effective approach to improving engine performance, provided that the modification is technically appropriate and complies with applicable emission and noise regulations.

This study aims to analyze the influence of Innovative Work Behaviour, Upskilling, and Work Ethic on the Health Workers Performance with Intention to Stay as an intervening variable at RSUD Sumberrejo. The background of this research stems from challenges in improving service quality, high workload, and the need to strengthen competency and retention among health workers. The study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method through the distribution of questionnaires, with data analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) through SmartPLS version 4.0. The population consists of 216 employees, and the sampling technique used is non-probability sampling, resulting in 140 respondents. The findings reveal that Innovative Work Behaviour, Work Ethic, and Intention to Stay have a significant positive effect on the performance of health workers. In addition, Innovative Work Behaviour and Work Ethic significantly influence Intention to Stay. However, Upskilling shows a positive but non-significant effect on both Intention to Stay and Performance, indicating that skill enhancement requires managerial support and motivation to contribute effectively to employee performance. Intention to Stay serves as a mediating variable in several relationships among the constructs. Strengthening innovative behaviour, work ethic, and competency development, accompanied by appropriate retention strategies, is essential for improving the performance of health workers in regional hospitals. Future studies are recommended to develop the research model by incorporating additional variables that may have stronger effects on Intention to Stay and Performance. Keywords: Innovative Work Behaviour; Upskilling, Work Ethic; Intention to Stay; Health Workers Performance
