This qualitative research investigates the influence of work motivation and work environment on employee performance within PT Yusen Logistic Indonesia's warehouse division. Through comprehensive interviews with maritime professionals, educators, and industry experts, this study addresses critical gaps in understanding workforce dynamics in maritime logistics operations. The research employed thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews with 45 participants across three stakeholder groups: operational staff, maritime educators, and industry professionals. Findings reveal that intrinsic motivation factors, particularly career development opportunities and safety recognition, demonstrate stronger correlation with sustained performance than monetary incentives. Work environment quality, including infrastructure adequacy and shift management, serves as a significant moderator affecting motivation–performance relationships. In addition, this research highlights that supportive leadership and open communication further strengthen employee engagement and commitment in high-pressure warehouse operations. Respondents consistently emphasized the importance of aligning organizational goals with individual career aspirations, particularly in a sector where safety and efficiency are paramount. The study also identifies that investment in ergonomic facilities, digital monitoring systems, and structured training programs reduces fatigue and error rates, thus promoting both productivity and safety compliance. The implications extend beyond company-level management to broader maritime education and policy-making. The integration of motivational strategies into vocational curricula can better prepare graduates for the realities of port and logistics operations. Moreover, the findings contribute to developing sustainable logistics practices that balance efficiency, employee well-being, and long-term organizational competitiveness. Overall, the research provides evidence-based recommendations for maritime vocational training programs, human resource management, and port operations strategies in Indonesia’s rapidly growing logistics sector.

Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, in-depth interviews with key and primary informants, and documentation. Data validity was tested through triangulation of sources and techniques to increase the validity of the research results. The results show that the organizational culture in Lebak Bulus Village has strengths in the aspects of innovation and risk-taking, orientation towards results, orientation towards people, and stability. However, several weaknesses were still found, such as low individual initiative, lack of attention to detail, weak team orientation, minimal levels of aggressiveness, and limited employee experience and accuracy. Opportunities for improvement can be pursued through ongoing training and the digitalization of public services, although challenges remain, including a passive work culture and resistance to policy change. Overall, organizational culture plays a crucial role in supporting employee performance improvement, but a sustainable strategy is needed to strengthen professionalism and build a more adaptive and progressive work culture. Efforts to address identified weaknesses, such as improving communication between employees, developing leadership skills, and enhancing discipline in carrying out tasks, are essential for the continued development of a positive organizational culture. Furthermore, awareness of the importance of collaboration across organizational divisions must be instilled to create a more productive and efficient work environment.

Women's leadership is recognized as a strategic factor driving organizational success through the formation of effective and sustainable team collaboration. Beyond simply directing, women leaders build a conducive work climate where team members are valued, engaged, and have equal opportunities to contribute. Across various sectors, they demonstrate the ability to manage team dynamics with a participatory, collaborative approach, and a focus on healthy interpersonal relationships. This study uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to describe the role, benefits, and challenges of women's leadership in human resource (HR) development. Twelve articles published between 2020 and 2024 were selected based on the PICOC framework to ensure academic validity. The study results indicate that women's leadership is synonymous with a participatory style, empathy, and open communication that encourages time commitment, the flow of ideas, innovation, and productivity. Women leaders create a psychologically safe work environment, value differences of opinion, and encourage cross-functional collaboration. Their role is increasingly important in the era of flexible work and digital transformation, where empathy and communication are key to maintaining team motivation and productivity. However, challenges such as gender stereotypes, structural barriers, and cultural resistance still limit the effectiveness of women's leadership, especially in strategic positions and high-level decision-making. In many cases, women leaders still have to work harder to gain legitimacy, even though they have the same or even higher qualifications than their male counterparts. Addressing this requires more inclusive organizational policies, gender-based leadership training programs, mentoring, and consistent advocacy for equality. Companies and public institutions must actively create an ecosystem that supports women's leadership development, including equal access to strategic career opportunities.

Furthermore, the application of AI in B2B sales also opens up new opportunities for service personalization. With the support of real-time data analysis, companies can better understand the specific preferences and needs of their business partners. This enables the development of more targeted communication strategies and the enhancement of long-term relationships with business customers. AI also plays a role in reducing human error through automated systems that can validate data, provide predictive recommendations, and support faster and more accurate strategic decision-making. Furthermore, the adoption of AI in B2B requires clear regulations and governance, particularly regarding ethical data use and information security. Companies must be able to balance the use of technology to increase efficiency with the protection of privacy and consumer rights.

This study aims to determine the effect of career development and organizational culture on employee performance at the Bima City Social Service.

Therefore, the Bima City Social Service is advised to continue improving career development and strengthening an organizational culture that supports performance. In addition, this study also highlights the importance of management's role in creating an environment that supports career development and a positive organizational culture. Fair and transparent career development not only provides opportunities for employees to improve their skills and knowledge but also motivates them to contribute more to organizational goals. Likewise, an inclusive and collaborative organizational culture can increase mutual trust, effective communication, and cooperation among employees, thus creating a work environment conducive to improved performance. The research concludes that these two factors—career development and organizational culture—interact to optimize employee performance. Therefore, the Bima City Social Service needs to continue developing policies that support both aspects, such as regular training, fair promotion programs, and the development of a work culture that emphasizes collaboration and appreciation for employee performance.

This study aims to determine the relationship between organizational commitment and readiness for change among employees at Ramayana Plaza Andalas Padang. The background of this study emphasizes the importance of human resource readiness in facing the increasingly rapid dynamics of organizational change, whether due to globalization, technological developments, or increasingly competitive market competition. Organizational change demands active involvement and psychological readiness from employees, and one factor believed to play a significant role in this readiness is the level of commitment to the organization. This study used a quantitative approach with a nonprobability sampling method, where data were collected through a questionnaire using a Likert scale. Respondents were employees from various departments at Ramayana Plaza Andalas Padang. The results showed a significant relationship between organizational commitment and readiness for change. Specifically, affective commitment—which is an employee's emotional cessation of feelings toward the organization—and continuance commitment, which relates to the perception of the costs of leaving the organization, showed a positive relationship with readiness for change. Conversely, normative commitment, which stems from a sense of moral obligation to remain employed, showed a negative correlation, indicating that moral pressure without emotional involvement can hinder readiness for change. These findings indicate that although the overall level of readiness is quite high, several aspects such as fit (the appropriateness of change), change efficacy (belief in the ability to change), and management support still need improvement. Therefore, it is recommended that organizations focus more on strengthening affective commitment by actively involving employees in the decision-making process, building open communication, and providing training and coaching that supports ongoing readiness for change. Thus, the success of organizational change is greatly influenced by the quality of the emotional connection between employees and the organization.

Maintaining employee engagement presents a significant challenge for organizations, particularly when dealing with Generation Z, who possess unique characteristics, strong technological orientation, and high expectations regarding fairness in the workplace. One crucial factor believed to influence the level of employee engagement is organizational justice. This concept encompasses employees’ perceptions of fairness in the distribution of outcomes (distributive justice), the procedures applied (procedural justice), interpersonal treatment (interpersonal justice), and the clarity of information provided (informational justice). This study aims to examine the contribution of organizational justice to employee engagement among Gen Z employees at the Habepro Radionet Indonesia network. The research employed a quantitative approach with a simple linear regression method. The study population comprised all permanent Gen Z employees working within the network, with a sample size of 35 respondents. Data were collected using an organizational justice questionnaire covering its four dimensions and the Employee Engagement Scale (EES) to measure engagement levels. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS software through a simple linear regression test. The results revealed that organizational justice has a significant effect on employee engagement (p < 0.05), with a coefficient of determination of 0.528. This indicates that 52.8% of the variation in employee engagement can be explained by perceptions of organizational justice, while the remaining percentage is influenced by other factors beyond the scope of this study. These findings highlight the strategic importance of implementing fairness principles within organizations to enhance employee engagement, especially among Gen Z employees who tend to be more sensitive to equitable treatment, transparency of information, and open communication. Therefore, organizations are encouraged to design policies, procedures, and workplace interactions that foster a sense of justice, thereby sustaining employee engagement and contributing positively to overall organizational performance.

This study was conducted at Family Pharmacy in Pekanbaru City with the objective of examining the relationship between emotional intelligence and work stress, as well as their combined effect on employee performance. The research population consisted of all 150 employees in the production department. Using the Slovin formula, a sample of 60 respondents was selected through accidental sampling. Data collection was carried out via an online questionnaire distributed through Google Forms. The analytical methods employed were correlation analysis to assess the relationship between variables and multiple linear regression to measure their simultaneous influence on performance. The results indicated a negative relationship between emotional intelligence and work stress, meaning that employees with higher emotional intelligence tended to experience lower levels of work stress. Furthermore, when examined together, emotional intelligence and work stress had a significant impact on employee performance. Specifically, these two variables contributed 47.4% to the variance in performance, while the remaining 52.6% was influenced by other factors not addressed in this study. The findings highlight the importance of emotional intelligence as a critical factor in managing workplace stress and enhancing performance, especially in the pharmaceutical industry where precision, cooperation, and adaptability are essential. Improving employees’ emotional intelligence may serve as a strategic approach to reducing work-related stress and fostering better performance outcomes. Organizations are therefore encouraged to invest in training and development programs that emphasize emotional regulation, empathy, interpersonal skills, and effective communication. Future research should consider incorporating additional variables such as work motivation, organizational culture, leadership style, and job satisfaction to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the determinants of employee performance. Expanding the research scope to different departments and industries could also provide broader insights into how emotional intelligence and work stress interact across diverse work settings.

Digital transformation in government governance demands an integrated information system capable of increasing efficiency, transparency, and accountability. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the use of the Secretariat and Supporting Elements Integration System Application (Si-SEKRUP) at the Communication and Informatics Office of Central Java Province. The research method used a qualitative descriptive approach with data triangulation techniques in the form of documentation, observation, and literature studies. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of Si-SEKRUP has a positive impact on administrative management.
