STRENGTHENING UNDERSTANDING OF MSME FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT IN JOHAR BARU DISTRICT, CENTRAL JAKARTA

The partner in this community service activity program is the Johar Baru District Office, Central Jakarta. Johar Baru District has made efforts to provide proactive services to all levels of society so that they can take advantage of all Jakpreneur programs. The Jakpreneur program includes training, mentoring, licensing, marketing, financial reporting, and capital facilities. The problem faced is that there are still MSMEs, especially beginner MSMEs, who still need special treatment because they need to understand the procedures for obtaining Jakpreneur program services. The District Office can improve services to novice MSMEs by giving them a glimpse of business management before they can be included in the Jakpreneur program. This activity aims to provide knowledge dissemination about business management to employees of the Johar Baru District Office, Central Jakarta. Activity participants are expected to be able to share knowledge with novice MSMEs, especially regarding the use of digital facilities in managing business finances. The method used in this activity is by disseminating material and discussions. The District Head and Johar Baru District Office Employees attended the training. The activity began with a speech from the Head of the District, followed by the delivery of material and discussion. The activity evaluation results show that the authorities have a better understanding of business financial management, then the authorities will transfer this understanding to novice MSMEs.

Digital web-based research map by the German Society of Vascular Surgery (DGG): a tool to increase visibility and awareness of science in vascular surgery and vascular medicine in Germany

Abstract Background The German Society for Vascular Surgery and Vascular Medicine (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Gefäßchirurgie und Gefäßmedizin, DGG) represents over 3100 members. In addition to continuing education and professional policy positioning, an important area is the promotion of research and science as well as their visibility. The DGG has set up an online-based platform on its official homepage with the primary goal of providing site-specific information on research content, equipment, and contact information of university centers for vascular surgery. With the introduction of this digital research map, the DGG has created a project that is innovative in the German-speaking environment. Initiation and implementation In 2022, the DGG Board of Directors established the prerequisite with the necessary funding decision and commissioned the DGG Research Commission to implement the content. The commission determined which parameters should be shown on the map and surveyed them by means of standardized questionnaires at the research institutions in vascular surgery in Germany. The commission prepared the feedback for the digital presentation, web editors and web developers programmed the website including search functions, and the DGG head office entered the data. At the outset, 18 locations were mapped. The map is intended to grow to enable more research centers to submit their data. Discussion The digital research map is the result of a dedicated collaboration between, among others, the research commission, the management, the service providers, and the board of the DGG. The aim was to create a user-friendly platform where information on the various research groups can be accessed quickly and easily. A research map is an important digitally accessible statement that underscores the self-concept of the specialty of vascular surgery with its claim to innovation and academic basis. Visibility of research activity is a relevant element of highly specialized vascular medicine. The need for digital representation of research structures in academic medicine is confirmed by comparable efforts of other scientific institutions such as the German Society for Surgery (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Chirurgie, DGCH) (1) and the German Rectors’ Conference (Hochschul- Rektorenkonferenz, HRK) (2) The research map of the DGG differs from the above-mentioned projects by highlighting the translational aspect. Scientific research groups are not presented as such, but rather the overall constellation of the clinical or academic university institution. Conclusion The DGG digital research map represents a pioneering initiative to strengthen collaboration and information exchange in vascular research by providing a comprehensive overview of working groups, research topics, and equipment. The outlook for the future is promising, as the digital research map will be continuously expanded and updated to meet the needs of researchers. Likewise, it provides visibility of the research accomplishments of the vascular surgery community to students, researchers from other disciplines, journalists, industry, and interested parties from abroad.

Francesco Barberini als Politiker

Abstract Francesco Barberini, the cardinal nephew of Pope Urban VIII (1623–1644), is known to researchers primarily as a patron of the arts. However, he was a member of numerous dicasteries in the Roman Curia and held the office of head of the papal secretariat of state throughout the pontificate. In the early years he hardly appeared in this function. From 1631 onwards, testimonies of his involvement in the correspondence of the office become more frequent in the archives and provide information about his desire to play an active role in papal politics. Detailed autograph minutes to letters sent in cipher to the nuncios in Vienna deal with topics such as the mostly futile request of the imperials for subsidies, the rejection of criticism of the papal policy of neutrality and the improvement of relations between the Holy See and the imperial court. In addition, the attempt to influence the political convictions of members of religious orders working in Vienna and, in particular, the need to win the emperor’s approval for the precedence of the prefect of Rome before the imperial envoy play a noticeable role.

The role of headquarters in managing coopetition within MNCs: a tale of two paradoxes

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to contribute to the discussion on how multinational company (MNC) headquarters (HQs) can manage the existing coopetition paradox to ensure innovation within the MNC. In contrast to the rather scarce previous research, the authors argue that HQ needs to solve the coopetition paradox under the sway of a parenting paradox. Hence, HQ faces a dual paradox.Design/methodology/approachDrawing on the literature on HQ’s role during MNCs’ innovation processes, this conceptual paper revisits the previously suggested HQ measures to enable coopetition among subsidiaries. By applying a sheer ignorance perspective, the authors contribute with a more nuanced understanding of the HQ’s role in innovation activities.FindingsThe article identifies four challenges as the HQ faces a parenting paradox that hinders its ability to solve the coopetition paradox: context specificity of subsidiaries’ innovation work, normative expectations of subsidiary managers, potential opportunistic behavior of HQ manager and HQ underestimation of needed resources. The article suggests that HQ needs to become more informed and preferably even embedded in the local innovation networks of its most important subsidiaries and that coopetition should not be managed solely on an HQ level.Originality/valueAdvocating a sheer ignorance perspective, the article pioneers in discussing the role that HQ plays in managing coopetition among subsidiaries in innovation activities.

Penggunaan Sistem Barcode dalam Memudahkan Pemantauan pada Inspeksi Alat Pemadam Api Ringan (APAR)

Fire, as a universal catastrophic phenomenon, presents the potential for significant losses to people, assets, and productivity around the world. Therefore, an efficient set of preventive and responsive measures is needed to reduce the risk of fire. In Indonesia, one approach in overcoming the threat of fire is through the use of Light Fire Extinguishers (APAR). The Head Office of PT X, a company located in a 23-storey building, faces challenges in conducting routine inspections of fire extinguishers. This obstacle arises due to the large number of fire extinguishers (84 units) and the limited number of HSSE (Health, Safety, Security, and Environment) staff. In order to overcome this problem, designing a barcode-based fire extinguisher inspection checklist connected to a spreadsheet is a relevant solution. The goal is to ensure that each fire extinguisher is ready to be used to extinguish fires. The fire extinguisher inspection data is processed and recorded in a database in a spreadsheet. Based on the results of the study, the barcode-based fire extinguisher inspection checklist system connected to this spreadsheet involves three levels of users, namely the operator responsible for conducting inspections, supervisors who have the authority to provide validation of inspection results, and admins who are in charge of managing and adding fire extinguisher inspection data that has been carried out.

The role of service innovation in mediating entrepreneurial orientation, organizational learning capability, and organizational performance relationship

In 1997, Indonesia had a severe economic crisis, which prompted the Indonesian government to face significant pressure to promptly initiate governmental reform. There is a prevailing desire among the general public for enhancements in governance, with one aspect of this being the implicit need for improvements in government performance. This study investigates the role of service innovation as a mediator in the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation, organizational learning capability, and organizational performance. The study was conducted at the Directorate General of State Assets Management (DGSAM) in Indonesia. The questionnaires were collected from a total of 226 head offices, specifically from the heads of sections under the vertical agency of DGSAM, which is the State Assets and Auction Service Office (Kantor Pelayanan Kekayaan Negara dan Lelang/KPKNL). A quantitative approach was employed in order to elucidate, substantiate, and exemplify the hypothesis posited in the investigation pertaining to the observed events. The statistical technique employed for data processing was Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). This study demonstrates a significant and positive correlation between entrepreneurial approach and organizational learning capability, and both service innovation and organizational success. However, it is determined that service innovation does not act as a mediator in the relationship between entrepreneurial attitude and organizational learning capability in terms of organizational performance. The anticipated outcomes of this study are expected to make significant contributions to the field of science and its associated stakeholders.
