PENGARUH PARTISIPASI PENYUSUNAN ANGGARAN DAN BUDAYA ORGANISASI TERHADAP KINERJA MANAJERIAL PADA PT PERKEBUNAN NUSANTARA VIII

PT Perkebunan Nusantara VIII is a state-owned plantation engaged in the Agribusiness and Agro-Industry sectors.. The budget preparation process that involves subordinates can improve the performance of subordinates in achieving budget targets. Participatory budgets can be carried out to achieve budget targets by negotiating between superiors and subordinates. In addition to being measured by employees and the cultural linkages attached to them, organizational success can also be seen from the overall performance of the organization. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of budgetary participation and organizational culture on managerial performance. The total population of this study was 23 PTPN VIII tea gardens in West Java. Respondents in this study were garden managers, assistant heads, assistants, and large foremen of PTPN VIII (Persero) who were involved in the participation process (proposing and or implementing) the budget with a total sample of 63 respondents selected through purposive sampling. testing the quality of the data used is the validity and reliability of the data. The classical assumptions used are normality test, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity test. Model analysis uses multiple linear regression is used to analyze data with the help of the SPSS.23.0 program. The results showed that budget participation had a significant effect on managerial performance and organizational culture had a significant effect on managerial performance.

Narratives and images of the future for final disposal

The search for a final repository in Germany lies in the field of tension between a past characterized by conflicts and a future-oriented process shaped by the repository site selection procedure. An examination of the history of social conflicts can be of assistance for the organization of participation concepts and positively influence the discourse. In this context, narratives play a special role in the discourse strategies. Over the course of the research project “Public participation in the search for a repository site: challenges of an intergenerational self-questioning and learning procedure” (Brohmann et al., 2021) narratives were analyzed by the Institute for Technology Assessment and Systems Analysis (ITAS) at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and future images for the repository were developed. Narratives consolidate very different discourse elements and therefore provide coherent tales. These are important narratives and temporally structured descriptions that refer to the past and can encroach upon the present. They are simultaneously open with respect to the future (Geiger, 2006), which makes them interesting for the development of future images. In turn, concrete perceptions, wishes and visions for aspects not yet experienced in the present are elucidated in future images. In the context of the search for a repository site, it is the “sociotechnical futures” (Lösch et al., 2019) that can be used with technical and political means for the accompanying construction of a social task. Sociotechnical futures designate different and possibly contrary futures, the sketching of which are usually related to larger public debates. Starting from a theoretical and conceptional classification of narratives and future images, an empirical examination is carried out in which qualitative social research methods and technology assessment concepts were applied. Using qualitative guideline-assisted interviews, experts were questioned about their present perspectives on the site selection procedure for a repository for highly radioactive nuclear waste. This also included the consideration of the context and reflections on futures to be expected. The interviews were evaluated by qualitative content analysis and the results consolidated in narratives. In a further step, the narratives were further developed in a reflection workshop with young adults and future images were conceptualized starting from various developmental pathways. The results and the recommendations for action derived from them for the participation process of the search for the repository site are the central subject of the presentation. Special emphasis is placed on the challenge of an intergenerational participation. Then, whereas (conflict afflicted) narratives encroach on the discourse in the present (and future) but “new” players without (conflict) experience participate in the discourse, this places a special challenge on the participation process as a whole, as interpretive patterns and expectations are also debated over and over again.

‘Answer in any way you want’: Discursive tensions in conversations of a citizen participation process

This paper contributes to empirical knowledge of citizen participation as a communicative event, by analyzing discursive tensions in interviews between civil servants and citizen-parents, that are part of a participatory process on how to mitigate violence in a suburban area in Sweden. Citizen participation events are increasingly initiated by public institutions in Western societies. Research, however, shows that goals of participatory processes often conflict with formal decision-making structures and institutional boundaries. Yet, how such tensions play out on the level of interaction is little researched. This study therefore analyzes discursive practices deployed by civil servants and how these construct characteristic tensions for the interviews. Three practices are identified: (1) pursuing the initial question, (2) cueing an institutional frame, and (3) epistemic positioning of the parents. These practices, being guided by an institutional agenda, create tensions both to the parents’ lifeworld and for the ideals of the participatory method itself.

DEVELOPMENT OF A DIGITAL 3D PARTICIPATION PLATFORM – CASE STUDY OF WEILIMDORF (STUTTGART, GERMANY)

This paper explains the development of a 3D city model-based Public Participation Platform as a prototype and its implementation in a real-world public participation process to redevelop the Weilimdorf area of Stuttgart city. Alongside conducting Weilimdorf’s public participation process, the goal of the mentioned public participation platform is to research citizens’ acceptance of such tools. The usage of digital tools has become more critical for participation processes. The need for social distancing expedites this change, particularly during the pandemic. Previous research frequently focuses on 2D platforms and smaller sample sizes but nevertheless shows the importance of such tools. However, with current developments in geospatial and web streaming technologies, it has become easier and faster to visualize large-scale 3D city models over the web. In this research, these technologies were used by the citizens of the Weilimdorf area to evaluate the usability of the platform and collect their feedback. The result shows that such a digital public participation platform is a valuable supplement to traditional in-person public participation methods.
