Teacher performance is one of the key factors in determining the quality of education and the achievement of school objectives. Several factors that are assumed to influence teacher performance include transformational leadership style, work motivation, and work discipline. This study aims to analyze the effect of transformational leadership style, work motivation, and work discipline on teacher performance at SMK Negeri 1 Musuk Boyolali. The research employed a quantitative method with descriptive and verificative approaches. The population consisted of 50 teachers, and all members of the population were selected as respondents using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS version 25. The results revealed that work motivation had a positive and significant effect on teacher performance. In contrast, transformational leadership style and work discipline did not have a significant partial effect on teacher performance. However, simultaneously, transformational leadership style, work motivation, and work discipline significantly affected teacher performance. The Adjusted R Square value of 0.324 indicates that these three variables explain 32.4% of the variation in teacher performance, while the remaining 67.6% is influenced by other factors outside the scope of this study. The findings imply that enhancing work motivation should be prioritized in efforts to improve teacher performance, while leadership and work discipline should continue to be strengthened to support a more effective working environment.

This study aims to determine and analyze the impact of the work environment on employee job satisfaction at the Human Resources Development Agency (BPSDM) of Jambi Province.

This indicates that the better the work environment, both physical and non-physical, the higher the employee job satisfaction. This research is expected to serve as a consideration for the agency in improving the quality of the work environment to support employee job satisfaction and performance.

This study aims to analyze the influence of work motivation and supervision on employee performance through job satisfaction at the Population Control and Family Planning Office (DPPKB) of East Kutai Regency. A quantitative approach was employed using census sampling technique involving 84 employees. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS software. The results reveal that: (1) work motivation positively and significantly affects job satisfaction (β = 0.263, p = 0.039); (2) supervision has a stronger positive effect on job satisfaction (β = 0.409, p = 0.000); (3) work motivation does not directly affect employee performance (β = 0.136, p = 0.248); (4) supervision does not directly affect employee performance (β = 0.140, p = 0.186); (5) job satisfaction is the strongest predictor of employee performance (β = 0.565, p = 0.000); (6) job satisfaction does not significantly mediate the work motivation–performance relationship (β = 0.149, p = 0.056); and (7) job satisfaction fully mediates the supervision–performance relationship (β = 0.231, p = 0.001). These findings suggest that improving public-sector employee performance requires a humanistic supervisory approach centered on employee psychological well-being.

This study aims to analyze the influence of work motivation, transformational leadership style, and career development on employee performance through job satisfaction at the Dinas PUPR Kabupaten Kutai Timur. This research uses quantitative explanatory method with SEM-PLS (Structural Equation Modeling - Partial Least Squares) analysis. The population consists of 120 employees with a sample of 93 respondents determined using the Slovin formula with 5% margin of error and simple random sampling technique.

This study aims to analyze the role of parents in improving children’s reading and writing literacy skills at SDN 08 Kurnia, Semedang Village, Kuala Behe Subdistrict, Landak Regency. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions based on the research findings. The results indicate that the role of parents in improving children’s reading and writing literacy skills in Semedang Village has not yet been fully realized. In terms of education, parental involvement remains limited due to a lack of understanding regarding effective learning support. In terms of motivation, parents have not consistently encouraged learning activities within the family. In terms of facilitation, the family’s economic constraints are one of the factors preventing the provision of literacy support materials, such as reading books and learning media. In terms of guidance, time constraints due to work demands have prevented the intensity of support for children’s learning activities from reaching its full potential. This situation is influenced by several factors, including internal factors such as parents’ educational backgrounds and family economic conditions, as well as external factors such as a surrounding environment that does not yet support a culture of literacy, the influence of peers, and the use of digital media. These factors have prevented the establishment of sustainable literacy activities within the family environment.

This community service study investigates a marketing training program implemented by theology students of STT Kadesi Bogor at the GPIA Sidoasri congregation in Sumbermanjing Wetan District, Malang Regency, East Java. The program targeted eighteen women members of the congregation to improve their economic capacity through the marketing of low-cost everyday clothing via three channels: door-to-door sales, a small storefront at the church, and online commerce through TikTok. The study applied a pre- test/post-test design evaluated using the Normalized Gain (N-Gain) method to measure changes in knowledge and skill across five indicators: marketing knowledge, selling skills, online media usage, basic financial recording, and entrepreneurial motivation. Results indicated a moderate-to-high N-Gain across all measured indicators, with an average N-Gain score of 0.656 (moderate category), and the highest individual gain in entrepreneurial motivation (0.76, high category). Sales data over the three-month period (January–March 2025) recorded a total profit of Rp1,967,500 across 345 garments sold, representing an income supplement of approximately 27–35% relative to participants' baseline household income for the most active participants. A marked sales decline in February and March was attributed to seasonal demand shifts ahead of Eid al-Fitr, as consumers redirected purchases toward formal Muslim attire. The program demonstrated that congregation-based economic empowerment rooted in a biblical theology of work, stewardship, and the dignity of labor can yield measurable and holistic socioeconomic outcomes for Christian women in rural communities.
