Aim: To find out factors influencing resilience of Micro Small and Medium Entrepreneur MSME entrepreneurs during the worlwide spread of COVID-19 pandemic, this study aims at empirically examine the influence of entrepreneurial personality in utilizing technology and government support for business resilience through crisis management as an intervening variable.Research design, data and method: This research is a quantitative study analyzing sample of 97 small and medium enterprises actors in South Sulawesi, Indonesia, chosen by using purposive sampling. The main data in this study is results of questionnaires distributed to respondents which is analyzed by using Partial Least Square (PLS analysis).Results and Findings: This study proves a positive and significant relationship between entrepreneurship personlity and crisis management. There is no significant relationship between utilizing of technology toward crisis management. There is a positive and significant relationship between government support toward crisis management. This research also proves a positive and significant influence between crisis management on business resilience.
Purpose This paper aims to investigate the relevance of each variable such as brand attitude, brand awareness, brand visibility (BV), brand integrity (BI), brand reputation and brand performance through direct and intervening testing, so that the research has theoretical implications for the development of modern marketing science while having managerial implications for Apple product companies through model development what has been done by Pantea Foroudi. Design/methodology/approach This research is the development of Pantea Foroudi’s research. The original side of this study adds BI variables and BV as an intervening variable. The research analysis method uses partial least square, which is the process with Smart-PLS Software. The sampling method uses purposive random sampling with data collection using e-survey. This study also involved 395 samples of apple product brands in Makassar, Indonesia. This research was conduct from March to October 2018. Findings The 14 line analysis that the authors submitted, both tests were carried out directly or intervening. A total of 11 predictions stated significant influence while BV and brand awareness did not affect the brand reputation. Brand awareness also does not affect brand performance by making brand reputation an intervening variable. Originality/value The original side of the research adds a variable that is considered very important, namely, BI and BV.
Human capital is the key factor to drive a company in achieving its vision and mission. Therefore, developing the human capital management aims to achieve the company's human capital quality, it is one of the most important company’s strategies today. This study is intended to determine the influence of human capital management development toward the company performance, to answer this question the five important factors in human capital management, namely individual capabilities, individual motivation, leadership, organizational climate and work group effectivenes, they are analyzed to determine their effects on employee performance and company performance on four developer companies in South Sulawesi Indonesia. This study proved that organizational climate has a direct effect on employee and company performance. Work group effectiveness directly affects employee and company performance. Individual capability, individual motivation and leadership have a direct effect on employee performance. than the employee performance directly affects the company performance.
The cocoa industry in Sulawesi, the main region of cocoa production in Indonesia, is threatened by destructive diseases, including vascular-streak dieback (VSD) caused by the basidiomycete Oncobasidium theobromae and stem canker and Phytophthora pod rot (PPR) or black pod, caused by Phytophthora palmivora. Using the considerable genetic diversity of cocoa on farms, host resistance was identified and tested with the participation of farmers. Fortynine local and international cocoa selections with promising resistance characteristics (as well as susceptible controls) were side-grafted onto mature cocoa in a replicated trial with single-tree plots. Developing grafts were assessed in the dry season for severity of VSD infection, scored from 0 (no infection) to 4 (graft death). All of the 49 clones in the trial became infected with VSD in at least some replicates. Average severity varied from 0.2 to 1.6. Potential VSDresistance was found in eight clones, including DRC 15, KA2 106 and a local Sulawesi selection, VSD2Ldg. Some of the most susceptible clones were local Sulawesi selections from areas with a history of little or no VSD. Thirty-four pod-bearing clones were evaluated over a 2-year period for yield, quality and resistance to natural infections of PPR. Cumulative PPR incidence for all clones was 22% but varied from 8.6 to 43% among clones. Clones with less than 15% PPR incidence were designated as resistant, including DRC 16 and local Sulawesi selections, Aryadi 1, Aryadi 3 and VSD1Ldg. Scavina 12 was moderately resistant in the trial with a PPR incidence of 23%. Cumulative incidences of the mirid, Helopeltis spp., determined in the same evaluation period, indicated that DRC16 was the most susceptible clone with an incidence of 52% in ripe pods and 23% in immature pods. In comparison, KKM4 showed evidence of resistance to Helopeltis spp., with incidences of 34 and 0.8% in ripe and immature pods, respectively. The impact of diseases and pests (including cocoa pod borer) on bean losses and bean quality varied between clones but generally the bean size (or bean count) was affected more than the fat content or shell content.
The background of the problem of this research is the lack of student learning outcomes, it is proven that many students of class VIII MTS Miftahul Jannah whose scores are below the KKM. The objectives of this research are: To find out the learning outcomes on the subjects of aqidah morality in class VIII MTS Miftahul Jannah before and after using the buzz group learning method, and To find out whether the buzz group learning method can improve student learning outcomes. The type of research chosen is classroom action research (CAR), so this research uses the first cycle model to the next cycle. The results of this study showed that the learning outcomes of class VIII MTS Miftahul Jannah students increased after learning Akidah Akhlak was carried out using the buzz group learning method. This is indicated by the increase in student learning outcomes, namely from 34 students in the first cycle of students who had a complete score of only 26 students or 76.74% and in the second cycle, students who completed 100%.
