Vol. 9 No. 3 (2025): JULY 2025
The July 2025 edition of Jurnal EMT KITA (Vol. 9 No. 3) presents a comprehensive collection of scientific articles covering diverse aspects of economics, management, and business in contemporary Indonesia. This edition explores critical themes including entrepreneurship development through business incubators in university environments, disaster preparedness knowledge among employees, and the integration of information technology to enhance work engagement and business performance. The journal features extensive research on human resource management, examining the relationships between competency, compensation, and employee performance, while also addressing transformational leadership implementation in government agencies and organizational commitment factors. Financial management and banking sector studies form a significant portion of this edition, with investigations into Third Party Funds (TPF) and Non-Performing Finance (NPF) impacts on financial performance, profit management under financial distress conditions, and comprehensive analyses of good corporate governance effects on fraud prevention. The research extends to ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) implications in promoting green business strategies and sustainable economic development, including green marketing influences on consumer purchasing decisions and the development of sustainability balanced scorecards. Regional economic development receives substantial attention through studies of tourism development in North Musi Rawas and Tana Toraja, poverty reduction strategies in West Sumatra municipalities, and economic growth analyses in Jambi Province. The journal also examines international trade dynamics, particularly the impact of Donald Trump's reciprocal tariff policies on Indonesian crude palm oil exports to the United States, and the role of foreign and domestic investment in Indonesia's economic growth. Digital transformation emerges as a key theme, with research on digital innovation strategies in e-commerce, civil servant digital transformation initiatives, and social media marketing effectiveness in various business contexts. Additional research encompasses diverse topics including epistemological foundations of accounting, market share determinants, village fund allocation impacts on local government financial performance, critical chain project management in infrastructure development, and the application of local wisdom in hospitality management. The journal also presents methodological innovations such as GARCH and ECM approaches for detecting economic and financial volatility, systematic literature reviews on self-managing organizations, and the evaluation of Sharia cooperative conversion success using the ADKAR model. This extensive collection provides valuable insights for academics, practitioners, and policymakers addressing contemporary challenges in Indonesian economic development, sustainable business practices, digital transformation, and regional development strategies.
