The interrelationship of community resilience and business resilience. A qualitative study on the role of community for small business survival
Get PDFOur study highlights the interrelationship between community resilience and business resilience. This study
showed that when community members were able to recover from the health risks of pandemic, small
businesses were also able to recover by continuing their operations that once were disrupted. The surviving
businesses also benefit the local community with valuable offerings to enjoy and by providing jobs for the
locals. Our findings thus may inform policy makers on the importance of contextual factor for economic
recovery program following an adverse event. Government sponsored new venture creations initiatives
should be aimed at exploiting local opportunities by fulfilling local demands of products and services while
at the same time empowering local entrepreneurs. This is to increase the chance of survival of small ventures
as the continuity of small businesses rely on their communities. This message is important amidst the higher
preference of government and venture capitalists to support new ventures creation initiatives that display the
potential for a fast growth by utilizing high technology and targeting wide geographical area of market.
Although this type of venturing is important, however, the economic impact of local small venturing for
community is also evident, thus should not be overlooked
Pengembangan Perajangan Sampah Organik di Rumah Kompos Untuk Menjaga Lingkungan Secara Berkelanjutan
Get PDFProduksi pupuk organik dari rumah kompos yang berada di RT-4/RW-5 kelurahan Siwalankerto, kecamatan Wonocolo, kota Surabaya masih perlu untuk ditingkatkan, baik dari sisi bahan baku yang diperoleh dari limbah sayuran warga sedangkan proses pencacahan bahan organik dilakukan secara manual dan
perharinya hanya berkisar 10 kg. Hal ini tentu saja tidak sebanding dengan sampah organik yang dihasilkan oleh warga di RT tersebut. Sampah organik yang dihasilkan oleh warga dapat mencapai 75 kg-100 kg perharinya. Dari permasalahan tersebut didesain sebuah alat pencacah sampah organik, untuk
meningkatkan kapasitas dari hasil cacahan sampah organik setiap harinya yang merupakan bahan baku dari pupuk kompos. Disamping itu, dari jumlah cacahan yang meningkat ini diharapkan dapat meningkatkan juga produksi pupuk kompos. Langkah awal dari kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini dilakukan dengan
mengunjungi rumah kompos. Setelah meilihat permasalahan yang ada, selanjutnya dilakukanlah proses desain dari alat perajang sampah otomatis ini. Mesin perajang sampah organik yang telah dibuat dan diuji ini selanjutnya diujicobakan di rumah kompos. Setelah prses ujicoba selesai maka selanjutnya adalah serah terima alat. Alat ini mampu untuk mencacah sampah organik yang dihasilkan oleh masyarakat dengan lebih efisien. Sampah organik warga yang mencapai 75 kg-100 kg perharinya dapat dicacah dengan baik

Analysis of Internal and External Factors Affecting Tax Aggressiveness in The Healthcare Sector Companies
Get PDFThis study aims to examine the influence of internal factors (management compensation and company liquidity) and external factors (tax consultant variable) on tax aggressiveness. Using multiple regression analysis, the hypothesis testing results based on 116 panel data observations from the healthcare sector companies listed in the IDX between 2019-2022 indicate that all variables have an impact on the tax aggressiveness of the company, with less consistent directions of influence, especially for company liquidity and tax consultant. Those independent variables influence tax aggressiveness positively, indicating that the more liquid the company and more tax consultants it hires, the higher its aggressiveness. These results were robust to the alternative models of the tax aggressiveness, which each of the independent variables were placed in the models. The practical implication of this study is that tax aggressiveness behavior will not only be triggered by internal factors, but it is possible to be affected by external ones
Investigating the Project Based Learning and Service Learning: A Case Study of Interior Design Program, Petra Christian University
Get PDFCurriculum development is carried out by the Interior Design Study Program at Petra Christian University to foster academic competencies, encourage and facilitate students to master various sciences according to their specialization, as well as enable them to understand real problems and find creative solutions. This article discusses various learning activities that contribute to empirical knowledge regarding the successful implementation of project-based learning in a sustainable manner. Through project-based learning, the learning process is built on learning activities with real tasks that challenge students to solve daily life problems independently and collaboratively. Meanwhile, through service learning, students experience direct interaction with the community where they live. Overall, implementing learning helps promote the existence of the design profession to the public. Communities become more aware that they must increase awareness of their cultural environment. In contrast, students become more aware of their competence as designers in building a better environment
Assessing The Effects Of Product VS Country Image And Hedonic VS Utilitarian Messaging On Brand Attitude
Get PDFThis study aims to analyze the most effective strategy to obtain the most favorable brand attitude when promoting a brand. It examines the effectiveness of a product or country image, as well as the hedonistic and utilitarian message towards the brand attitude of a product. This study also includes the moderating effect of brand sustainability to observe the effect of a good or bad sustainability image on the brand attitude of a product. This study uses an experimental approach using a fictitious Swiss chocolate brand with either a hedonistic or utilitarian-focused message, followed by a display of a country or product image, as well as a sustainability report using the Chocolate Scorecard as a template. The participants are then given a set of four bipolar items before and after the sustainability report to rate the brand attitude of the product. The results show a non-significant relationship between hedonistic and utilitarian messages towards brand attitude, while it shows a significant relationship between country and product image towards brand attitude. The results also show that a sustainable label shows a similar positive impact towards brand attitude, while a non-sustainable label has a more adverse impact on product image compared to country image
