/in /by

The research titled “Building a Learning and Leadership Ecosystem Using a Knowledge Management Perspective at PT Tri Satya Jaya” this research addresses significant challenges the company faces, particularly in performance decline and ineffective employee collaboration. The quantitative component involved administering a questionnaire called the Learning Organization Survey, modeled after Garvin et al. (2008), to assess the organization’s learning depth, while the qualitative aspect comprises interviews with directors to gain deeper insights into performance-related issues. The research used the tree analysis method to determine the root causes of the decline in company performance. Additionally, the study highlights that organizational culture plays a crucial role in influencing employee performance. A culture that does not prioritize knowledge sharing and continuous learning can lead to stagnation and inefficiencies, ultimately affecting the company’s competitiveness in the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) sector.

A well-designed KM (knowledge management) Framework can facilitate the sharing and retention of knowledge. The study proposes strategies that leverage the SECI (socialization, externalization, combination and internalization) model to create a robust knowledge-sharing environment within the organization, by implementing the SECI model. The SECI model emphasizes the importance of social interactions in knowledge sharing, encouraging employees to collaborate and learn from one another. This research develops a detailed implementation timeline to ensure the effective integration of these KM strategies into PT Tri Satya Jaya’s operations. The timeline is structured in four key stages: the first is KM Preparation for Internal Company, the second is Designing Guidelines and Curriculum, the third is KM System Implementation, and the fourth is the KM System Evaluation.

The research concludes that investing in human capital and adopting effective leadership practices are essential for driving organizational success and competitiveness in the EPC sector. By establishing a robust learning and leadership ecosystem, PT Tri Satya Jaya can overcome its challenges and achieve sustainable growth. The recommendations that this research offers are as follows:  establishing a knowledge management team, investing in leadership development, creating structured mentoring programs, enhancing human capital investment, utilizing technology for knowledge management, and establishing performance tracking mechanisms.

Analysis of the Leadership Role on Employee Well-being. Study Case: HKBP District VIII DKI Jakarta

/in /by

Employee well-being is high on the corporate agenda because companies and their boards of directors connect and correlate it with success. Employees’ eligibility for perks, insurance, and medical care is frequently determined by socioeconomic considerations. This means that disadvantaged groups are frequently left behind, although they require the most assistance. HKBP or Huria Kristen Batak Protestan is one of the largest church organizations among Protestant churches in Indonesia and Southeast Asia. As one of the largest churches in this country, HKBP should be an organization that can set an example in terms of organizational governance that is characterized by being clean, transparent, visionary, has access to the public, and is based on the needs of the congregation. But the hope to be an example, an example organizationally has not been realized properly because of turmoil from internal problems that went wrong.

Currently, by looking at HKBP’s internals, it has even caused turmoil, and many inequalities and made HKBP’s management far from what we expected. There are even terms for HKBP wetland and dryland HKBP. Of course, this fact cannot be denied, even though all HKBP servants have made promises to be willing to be placed anywhere to preach the gospel. The struggle for churches that are wetlands and those who have financial resources is certainly one of the evaluation materials and a weakness of HKBP’s financial decentralization, where this does not at all reflect the life of God’s servants who should receive the assigned placement for each individual. This also shows that well-being is not evenly distributed and creates gaps among servants.

This study aims to identify leadership roles to employee well-being, such as Job Performance, Ethics or Personal Characteristics, Communication or Feedback, and Justice or Fairness. To determine what has to be addressed and developed by leaders to improve the well-being of employees in HKBP District VIII DKI Jakarta can be seen from a leadership role on employee well-being indicators, such as Positive Emotions, Engagement, Relationship or Positive Relationships, Meaning, and Achievement (PERMA). Based on this research, the priority that must be improved in Leadership is Justice or Fairness. HKBP District VIII DKI Jakarta has to level up and maintain the existing program, such as seminars about self-development in leadership and annual programs to intensify the bond between the leader and fellow church ministries.
