Transformational leadership is an important paradigm in strengthening modern governance that is oriented towards innovation, accountability, and public service. This research aims to examine the concepts, roles, and challenges of transformational leadership in the context of the Indonesian public sector through a literature study approach. The study was conducted on 15 open academic sources relevant to digital bureaucratic issues, apparatus work motivation, and organizational reform. The results of the study show that transformational leadership is able to increase performance effectiveness, strengthen employee commitment, and accelerate the digital transformation of the bureaucracy through an inspiring vision, intellectual stimulation, and individual attention to subordinates. In addition, this leadership contributes to the formation of a collaborative work culture and the improvement of public service innovations that are adaptive to the needs of the community. However, its implementation still faces structural obstacles, such as hierarchical culture, resistance to change, weak digital competence of the apparatus, and limited policy and human resource support. Therefore, a strong integration between transformational values, adaptive leadership competencies, and good governance principles is needed to drive sustainable and performance-oriented bureaucratic change that is superior to public performance.

This study investigates the impact of population growth and the Human Development Index (HDI) on economic growth and unemployment in East Kalimantan Province using path analysis with secondary data from 2014–2023. Population growth and human development are two critical demographic and socio-economic factors that often generate complex effects on regional economic performance. The results indicate that population growth has a negative and significant effect on economic growth, highlighting the pressure that rapid demographic expansion places on natural resources, infrastructure, and employment absorption capacity. Conversely, HDI demonstrates a positive and significant relationship with economic growth, suggesting that improvements in education, health, and income contribute to higher productivity and competitiveness. On the other hand, the direct effect of population growth and HDI on unemployment is negative but statistically insignificant, which implies that the availability of jobs and structural conditions of the labor market are more influential than demographic changes alone. Interestingly, economic growth shows a negative and significant effect on unemployment, supporting the classical theory that sustained economic expansion generates employment opportunities and reduces joblessness. Mediation tests reveal that economic growth does not significantly mediate the relationship between population growth or HDI and unemployment, underscoring that unemployment dynamics in East Kalimantan are influenced by broader structural factors such as sectoral concentration, policy effectiveness, and industrial diversification. These findings highlight the importance of integrating demographic management, human capital development, and sectoral economic strategies in policy formulation. Strengthening human development while controlling excessive population growth can provide a solid foundation for inclusive and sustainable economic progress in East Kalimantan.

This study aims to examine the impact of digital payments, budget target clarity, and reporting systems on the performance of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) in South Lampung Regency. The research background is motivated by the fact that the performance of BUMDes nationally, including in the region, remains relatively low, with most still categorized as pioneers or beginners. The research method used is quantitative with a survey approach using a questionnaire, distributed to 77 BUMDes managers who met the sample criteria. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares-based Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS) with the SmartPLS 4.0 software. The findings indicate that the reporting system has a significant positive effect on BUMDes' performance. Conversely, digital payments and budget target clarity were found to have no significant effect. These findings imply the importance of strengthening reporting systems that prioritize transparency, accuracy, and ease of access as a strategic step to improve BUMDes performance. Meanwhile, the adoption of digital payments and improved budget planning still require support through enhanced human resource capacity and adequate infrastructure. Practically, this research contributes valuable insights for BUMDes managers and local governments in formulating policies for institutional strengthening.
