Pendekatan Manajemen Konflik sebagai Upaya Menjadi Problem Solver

Shinta Ages Putri Ariyanto — 2026-03-12

This study analyzes the conflict management approach as an effort to become a problem solver by viewing conflict as a structural and interactional reality in social and organizational contexts. Conflict is understood to arise from structural inequalities, differences in interests, and the dynamics of interaction, and is often not managed systematically, thus having a negative impact. The research uses a qualitative approach with a case study design through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation studies. Data analysis is carried out thematically through reduction and categorization of meaning. The results of the study indicate that conflict requires problem-solving-based management, participatory dialogue, and contextual understanding. This study emphasizes the importance of the role of actors and processes in conflict resolution and recommends the development of policies and further research in a broader context.

Analisis Perbandingan Kinerja Koperasi Merah Putih dengan KUD di Era Orde Baru, Studi Kasus pada Aspek Ekonomi dan Sosial

Moh. Ja’far Sodiq Maksum — 2026-03-12

This article analyzes the comparative economic and social performance between Koperasi Merah Putih—a national program for community-based village cooperatives launched in 2025—and Koperasi Unit Desa (KUD), which developed during Indonesia’s New Order era. The study employs a case study approach with a qualitative-comparative method enriched by quantitative projections of economic performance, based on historical data from KUD and projected growth for Koperasi Merah Putih. The theoretical framework draws upon the Cooperative Institutional Theory (Law No. 17/2012), Community-Based Economic Development (CBED), Social Capital Theory (Putnam, 1993), and Institutional Transformation Theory (North, 1990). The findings reveal that Koperasi Merah Putih demonstrates a more adaptive institutional design, broader business diversification, and higher member participation compared to KUD. Economic performance projections indicate significant potential contributions to village economies through multiplier effects across various sectors. Social capital rooted in active participation emerges as a key success factor, while the main challenges involve strengthening management capacity, digitalization, and independent oversight. The study recommends modern management training, implementation of external audits, and longitudinal research to continuously evaluate economic and social impacts.

Ambiguitas Kemitraan dan Prekarisasi Kerja Digital, Host Live Streaming Dalam Dinamika Kapitalisme Platform di Indonesia

Usriya Fara Nabila — 2026-03-12

Digital transformation through the platform economy has blurred the boundary between workers and entrepreneurs. In live streaming commerce, hosts are positioned as independent partners with flexibility but remain structurally subordinated through data-driven control. This study analyzes the position of live streaming hosts from a sociology of work perspective by integrating the ideas of Karl Marx, Max Weber, and Karl Polanyi. The research uses a qualitative normative-critical approach based on interdisciplinary literature and regulatory analysis. The findings show that platform partnerships represent a reorganization of labor relations in digital capitalism, where algorithmic mechanisms regulate visibility, performance, and income. Work flexibility becomes conditional, while economic risks and system penalties are transferred to hosts. As a result, hosts occupy a liminal position between workers and entrepreneurs but are structurally closer to subordinated labor. These conditions highlight the need for policy intervention that considers the social dimensions of digital work and principles of social justice.

Pengaruh Penerapan Green Human Resources Management Dan Lingkungan Kerja Terhadap Kepuasan Kerja Karyawan

Candra Nur Adiputra — 2026-03-12

This study aims to examine the influence of Green Human Resources Management (GHRM) and the work environment on employee job satisfaction at CV Pangan Berkah Sentosa, Jombang Regency. A quantitative explanatory design was employed to test causal relationships among variables. The population consisted of 348 employees, with 186 respondents selected using Slovin’s formula at a 5% margin of error. Data were collected through structured Likert-scale questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression after passing validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests. The findings indicate that GHRM does not have a significant effect on job satisfaction. In contrast, the work environment demonstrates a positive and statistically significant influence. Simultaneously, both variables significantly affect job satisfaction; however, the model explains only 8.6% of the variance. These results suggest that in a high-production operational context, tangible workplace conditions play a more dominant role in shaping employee satisfaction than sustainability-oriented HR practices. The study highlights the importance of improving workplace conditions as a strategic approach to enhance employee satisfaction, while emphasizing that GHRM implementation should be more integrative to generate meaningful psychological and organizational impacts.

Pengaruh Disiplin dan Motivasi Terhadap Kinerja Guru SMK Plus Umar Zahid

Mohammad Saiq Ali Sya’bana — 2026-03-12

This study aims to analyze the influence of discipline and work motivation on teacher performance at SMK Plus Umar Zahid, a vocational school integrated with a pesantren-based education system. Using a quantitative correlational design, the research involved 46 teachers selected through a saturated sampling technique. Data was collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and tested for validity and reliability, yielding valid items with Cronbach's Alpha values above 0.70. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination (R²). The results show that discipline has a positive but insignificant effect on teacher performance, while motivation has a positive and significant effect. Simultaneously, both variables significantly influence performance, with an R² value of 0.506, indicating that 50.6% of performance variation is explained by discipline and motivation. The findings highlight the dominant role of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation in enhancing teacher performance, strengthened by the religious and communal values of the pesantren environment. This study contributes to understanding human resource management in Islamic-based vocational education and provides recommendations for enhancing teacher professionalism through integrated strategies involving motivation, discipline, and organizational support.

Pengaruh Kompensasi, Kompetensi, dan Disiplin Kerja Terhadap Kinerja Guru Di SMP Negeri 1 Tembelang

Rina Amelia Putri — 2026-03-12

This study aims to analyze the effect of compensation, competence, and work discipline on teacher performance at SMP Negeri 1 Tembelang. The research used a quantitative method with an associative approach. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires (1–4) from 46 teachers and analyzed using SmartPLS 4. The results show that compensation (coefficient 0.224; p-value 0.016) and work discipline (coefficient 0.481; p-value 0.000) have a positive and significant effect on teacher performance. Meanwhile, competence has a positive but insignificant effect (coefficient 0.625; p-value 0.074). Simultaneously, these variables explain 72.6% of the variance in teacher performance (R-Square = 0.726). The findings indicate that teacher performance improvement is more influenced by compensation and work discipline than competence.
