Some key aspects of the HR study, such as compensation and leadership, were tested in this study. The method used is a quantitative approach with a sample of 150 respondents environmental management staff. Analysis of research data is based on path analysis through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results show that there was a significant and positive direct influence between work ability, leadership, and compensation on motivation of environmental staff. Subsequent results show an indirect effect of work skills, leadership, and compensation on performance through motivational mediation variables. The originality of this study lies on its efforts to emphasize that the hospitality business should also be considered a business that has an effect on the environment, and the exploration of this study that brings the perspective of HR in improving environmental performance in the implementation of environmentally friendly businesses.

The implementation of regional autonomy has implications for the transfer of authority between the center and the regions in various fields. The existence of regional autonomy will result in decentralization which involves the management of regional finances, economic planning, including arranging regional development programs and other plans delegated from the center to the regions. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of fiscal decentralization on economic growth and the index of human development in districts and cities in North Maluku Province. The population of this study consisted of 7 districts and 2 cities. The data is secondary data for the period 2011 to 2015, sourced from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) Jakarta, districts and cities in North Maluku Province, published. The collected data were analyzed using path analysis techniques using the SPSS program package. The results of the study indicate that the effect of fiscal decentralization on economic growth had a positive path coefficient with a level of probability which was not significant. This shows that hypothesis one which states that fiscal decentralization has a significant effect on the economic growth of districts and cities in North Maluku Province. These results suggest that the higher the fiscal decentralization, the higher the economic growth. The effect of fiscal decentralization on the human development index has a positive path coefficient with a significant level of probability. This implies that the higher the fiscal decentralization, the higher the human development index. The effect of economic growth on the human development index has a positive coefficient with a significant level of probability. These results indicate that the higher the economic growth, the higher the index of human development.

This study aims to investigate the relationship among sport experiential quality, club image, spectator satisfaction, subjective well-being, and spectator loyalty in the context of the Indonesian professional soccer industry. In addition, this study determines the mediating role of club image, spectator satisfaction, and subjective well-being in the relationship between sport experiential quality and spectator loyalty. To answer the research objectives, this study employed an explanatory research approach. Self-administered questionnaire was distributed among 250 samples recruited from several professional soccer matches in East-Java Province during Indonesia Soccer League (ISL) 2019. Data were analyzed by Partial Least Squares (PLS) technique. The results indicate that sport experiential quality did not have any significant direct effect on spectator loyalty. However, spectator experiential quality significantly affected club image, spectator satisfaction, and subjective well-being. While spectator experiential quality did not have a direct effect on spectator loyalty, the results also show that club image, subjective well-being, and spectator satisfaction had significant positive effects on spectator loyalty. Apart from the direct effect, this study indicate that subjective well-being, club image, and spectator satisfaction mediated the effect of spectator experiential quality on spectator loyalty.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the conceptualization of religiosity and spirituality, as well as to validate the measurement and influence of both constructs on frugality. The importance of this study is to find out whether religious and spiritual individuals have a high of frugality. Frugality as a form of self-control, in the long term can create the welfare of consumers. This is a quantitative research that uses a survey method. The sample, comprising of 539 adults, was taken from the general public. A validation of the construct measurements was done by using an exploratory factor analysis, and a data analysis was carried out by using a multiple regression. The research results reveal that there are differences between religiosity and spirituality. The hypotheses results disclose that there was an insignificant influence of religiosity on frugality, while spirituality had a significant influence on frugality. Testing was also done by classifying the sample based on gender. In the sample of women, it was discovered that religiosity had a significant influence on frugality. Meanwhile, in the sample of men, only spirituality had a significant influence on frugality. It is concluded that the effect of religiosity on frugality was moderated by gender.

Creative industries are developing rapidly in Bandung, one of which is the culinary industry. Besides fashion, culinary becomes one of the attractions for tourists visiting Bandung. Even though it is proliferating, only a portion of this culinary business can last more than five years. Intense competition is one of the reasons, and now businesses must face economic problems caused by the spread of the SARS CoV 2 virus. Since the beginning of March, the government has closed offices, shopping centers, and schools. Now, after more than two months, businesses must prepare to reopen their businesses in conditions of an outbreak that have not entirely disappeared. One effort that can be done is to maintain company performance. This research studies the improvement of company performance by being oriented to innovation, creativity, and entrepreneurship.

Employee engagement has become an emergent topic in recent years among consulting firms and in the popular business press. Many researchers have claimed that employee engagement predicts employee outcomes (e.g. job satisfaction, intentions to quit); closely linked to employees’ innovation; behavior organizational success; and financial performance (e.g. total shareholder return). However, as far as we know, the role of the leader in fostering work engagement has received limited research attention. Furthermore, most extant researches studied the effect of transformational leadership on employee engagement have been for developed economies and the role of transformational leadership and employee engagement in transitional economies such as Vietnam is still unclear. To fill the research gap above, we take advantage of Vietnam’s transitional status to indicate the significant role of psychological empowerment in the circumstance of mediating role between transformational leadership and employee engagement.

Based on arguments of the social exchange theory (SET) and person-organization fit (P-O Fit), the environment can affect personality expression through behaviors and human perception of the environment. This research develops and tests two key assumptions: (1) individuals with proactive personality (PP) show proactive behavior (PB), particularly problem prevention behavior (PrP), through person-organization value congruence (POV), and person-supervisor value congruence (PSV); (2) the strength of the process of demonstrating problem prevention behavior depends on the perceived organizational support (POS) of the staff. Survey results from 715 employees and supervisors at hospitals in Vietnam show that (1) POV and PSV have an intermediary role between PP and PrP, (2) Intermediate effects of POV and PSV in the relationship between PP and PrP are moderated by POS. Specifically, the intermediate effect of POV, PSV is stronger for employees with high POS and lower for employees with lower POS. These findings provide a new perspective on understanding mechanisms to enhance employee’s PrP. As a result, the theoretical, practical implications and limitations of the study are also discussed.
