This study aims to analyze the management of young preacher (dai cilik) training in developing students’ preaching skills at SD IT Al-Washliyah Kelambir Lima Medan using a management function approach (*planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling*). This study employed a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation. The research informants consisted of the principal and teachers responsible for the young preacher training program. The collected data were analyzed systematically to describe the implementation of management functions in the young preacher training activities and their contribution to the development of students’ preaching skills. The results showed that planning was carried out through the development of a practice-based preaching curriculum, organizing was implemented through task allocation and regular scheduling, implementation focused on *public speaking* practice, sermon material preparation, and moral development, while evaluation was conducted periodically through student performance assessments. The implementation of this systematic training management contributed to the improvement of students’ preaching skills in cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects. These findings indicate that management functions applied in a structured manner play a strategic role in supporting the development of students’ preaching competencies at the elementary school level. Furthermore, continuous training provides opportunities for students to enhance their self-confidence, communication skills, and readiness to effectively deliver Islamic preaching messages

This study aims to synthesize empirical and theoretical literature on the Planning–Organizing–Actuating–Controlling (POAC) framework in public sector management, identify asymmetries among its functions, and propose a reconfiguration of POAC that is relevant to digital and collaborative governance. The study employs an integrative literature review by examining classical management literature, peer-reviewed journals, government regulations, and official governance indicators. Data were analyzed thematically based on the four POAC functions and synthesized across themes, using Indonesia during the 2021–2025 period as the empirical context. The findings reveal that planning and organizing functions have developed relatively well, while actuating and especially controlling remain persistent weaknesses. This condition is reflected in improvements in several formal governance indicators, including the Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE) Index, Indonesia’s ranking in the E-Government Development Index (EGDI), Unqualified Audit Opinions (WTP), and public service compliance ratings. However, during the same period, the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) declined. These findings indicate a gap between administrative achievements and substantive outcomes, consistent with the concept of means–ends decoupling in neo-institutional theory. The study contributes by bridging classical management theory with contemporary governance paradigms and proposing a Data-driven, Networked, Adaptive, and Participatory (DNAP) model of POAC. Practically, the results highlight the need to strengthen controlling functions and adaptive leadership to foster more effective, transparent, and outcome-oriented public governance.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of educational marketing management in increasing the interest of new students at MTs Negeri 3 Bekasi City, with a focus on the application of the POAC management functions (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, Controlling). The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a case study design. Primary data were obtained through observation and in-depth interviews with the Madrasah Principal and the Vice Principal for Student Affairs, who serves as the Chair of the PMBM Committee, while secondary data were sourced from relevant journals and literature. The research results indicate that marketing planning was carried out systematically through the formation of the PMBM committee, academic, religious, and Quranic literacy selection processes, as well as the utilization of digital and print media. Organization involved all school components in a structured manner, while promotional activities highlighted students’ academic, non-academic, and moral achievements through social media and word of mouth. This strategy proved effective, as evidenced by the number of applicants far exceeding the admission quota. However, implementation still faces challenges related to funding, limited land availability, and public perceptions regarding the difficulty of the selection process, which are addressed through routine evaluations and collaboration with government agencies.

This study aims to know the management of the Mosque Prosperity Board (BKM) of At- Tawwabin Mosque, Jalan Pimpinan, Medan City, in community economic empowerment. The background of this research is based on the need to optimize the function of mosques not only as places of ritual worship but also as centers of social and economic empowerment. In practice, the management of mosque assets such as parking areas and the organization of Ramadan stalls has become a strategic effort implemented by BKM to improve the welfare of the surrounding community. However, the implementation of these policies also creates social dynamics that require professional and equitable management.This research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were collected through field observations, in-depth interviews with the chairman and administrators of BKM, parking attendants, and Ramadan stall traders, as well as documentation of mosque activities. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, supported by triangulation techniques to ensure data validity.The findings indicate that the management of BKM At-Tawwabin has implemented planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling functions in managing mosque-based economic programs. Parking management provides employment opportunities for local residents, while Ramadan stalls significantly increase the income of small traders during the holy month. Overall, participatory and structured management enables the mosque to function not only as a center of worship but also as a center of economic empowerment that contributes meaningfully to community welfare.

Bullying in the school environment is a social health problem that has a massive impact on children’s physical, mental, and social well-being. As the primary educational environment, schools need to implement a structured, safe, and child-friendly bullying reporting system. Objective: This conceptual study aims to design the implementation of a bullying reporting system based on school health administration using the functional management approach: planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling (POAC). The methods and components of the reporting system are designed through the four POAC pillars, namely the establishment of an Anti-Bullying Team, the preparation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), the provision of child-friendly reporting media both physical and digital through the School Health Unit (UKS), and the development of monitoring and evaluation mechanisms (controlling). School health administration is used as an initial screening tool to identify indications of victim trauma discreetly and safely. The implementation of this POAC-based system is expected to improve the early detection of bullying cases, accelerate case handling responses, and eliminate stigma and fear of reporting among children. Conclusion: The integration of health administration and POAC management has proven to be a strong framework for creating a safe, inclusive school environment that strongly supports students’ mental health recovery.

Curriculum management is a strategic component of Islamic education because it plays an important role in achieving educational objectives and internalizing Islamic values within the learning process. Nevertheless, in practice, many schools continue to face managerial challenges in implementing the curriculum effectively. This study aims to evaluate curriculum management at MTs Persis 23 Cirengit based on the core functions of Islamic Educational Management, namely Planning, Organizing, Actuating, and Controlling (POAC). The research employed a qualitative approach using a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document analysis, and were analyzed using an interactive analysis model. The findings reveal that the POAC functions have been formally applied but have not yet operated as an integrated managerial cycle oriented toward continuous quality improvement. Curriculum planning remains largely procedural, organizing is not sufficiently participatory, implementation depends heavily on individual teacher capacity, and supervision is mostly administrative with limited follow-up actions.

This article examines various guidance and counseling (BK) management models relevant to the context of modern education in Indonesia. The models discussed include POAC (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, Controlling) management, comprehensive BK services, school-based BK management, specialized service management, and the use of digitalization in BK services. This review was compiled using a literature review method, drawing on various credible national sources, such as scientific journals, reference books, and education policy documents. The purpose of this research is to provide an in-depth understanding of the characteristics, principles, and implementation of each BK management model in educational practice. The results indicate that each model has its own advantages and limitations, both in terms of service planning, resource management, and the effectiveness of service delivery to students. Therefore, the selection and implementation of a BK management model must be tailored to the needs of the school, the availability of professional staff, infrastructure, and student characteristics. The integration of a systematic, data-driven, and adaptive management approach to developments in information technology is a key factor in improving the quality and effectiveness of BK services. This article is expected to provide theoretical and practical contributions to school counselors, educators, and education policymakers.

This study aims to analyze the main challenges in managing Community-Based Tourism (CBT) and develop a sustainable management model for Cemagi Tourism Village, Badung, Bali. This study uses a qualitative approach by combining primary and secondary data. Primary data were obtained through field observations, in-depth interviews, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), while secondary data were obtained from literature studies and related documents. The analysis was conducted using the SWOT method and qualitative descriptive methods to describe the actual conditions and opportunities for tourism village development. The results show that tourism village management still faces several challenges, particularly in the aspects of promotion and preservation. Collaboration with various stakeholders is necessary, particularly in utilizing social media as an effective promotional tool. In addition, the preservation of local nature and culture is key to sustainable tourism. The proposed management model places the village government and traditional villages as mentors, Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) and Tourism Awareness Groups (Pokdarwis) as managers, and the community as active actors in every stage of development. The model refers to the POAC (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, Controlling) management theory, taking into account three aspects of sustainability. First, the economic aspect, through increasing village income, creating jobs, and equitable profit sharing through the Village-Owned Enterprise (BUMDes). Second, the socio-cultural aspect, realized through preserving cultural heritage, improving the quality of human resources through tourism training, and strengthening the role of traditional arts. Third, the environmental aspect, with a focus on preserving subak (village-owned enterprises) and green spaces, managing waste using the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle), and nature conservation. Thus, sustainable tourism management requires strong collaboration, cultural preservation, and environmental awareness to ensure long-term benefits for local communities.

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.
