TO AVOID STARTUP BUSINESS FAILURE THROUGH ENTREPRENEURSHIP, CUSTOMER DEVELOPMENT, AND DESIGN THINKING APPROACH

This study is based on the phenomenon which is that many entrepreneurs, either new or
existing, of either small, medium, or large-sized level, experience business failure. Many
new entrepreneurs slowly realize that their business is wasting money and leads to
bankruptcy.
Ministry of Communication and Informatics of Republic of Indonesia has launched a
program called Gerakan Nasional 1.000 Startup Digital. The program launced on 17
June 2016 is expected to result in 1,000 startup businesses in Indonesia in 2020.
Since its launching, there are 16,500 registered participants who are from six cities in
Indonesia. In the first stage were 2,267 participants selected to continue to the next stage.
After assessment on ideas and formulated problems to solve, only 41 participants were
successfully chosen as prospective startup business. It indicates that most of startup
businesses have not been able to both formulate creative and innovative ideas and find
required business solutions.
The objective of this study is to explain how a startup business does not fail while
operating. Besides, it is also aimed to explain the importance of entrepreneurship
approach, customer development approach, and design thinking approach for providing a
guideline, skills, and effective belief to particularly new entrepreneurs to make their
business successful.

The purpose of writing this paper is to look at the function and role of social studies teachers in an era of disruption and abundance. The era of disruption and abundance demands a paradigm shift in producing graduates. A teacher must be able to prepare students to be great people and be able to adjust to the era in which he will take part. Innovative ways of teaching and learning, student-centered learning, the use of technology with unlimited reach, and unlimited access to new knowledge should be developed in education in Indonesia. Novelty can be obtained by various approaches in learning activities, so that the teacher must have comprehensive knowledge about religion, science and social humanities in order to build strong character of students, not give up easily in the face of all changes instead more adaptable or even become agents of change with give new ideas. In order for students to get the knowledge and skills that are able to help them face the era of disruption and the era of abundance, the teacher needs to change the way of teaching in accordance with their roles and functions.

PENGARUH PROFITABILITAS DAN LEVERAGE TERHADAP HARGA SAHAM

Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengungkapkan pengaruh profitabilitas dan laverage terhadap harga saham
Bank Swasta Nasional di Jakarta. Penelitian menggunakan metode kuantitatif eksperimen, dengan mendapatkan
data dari dokumen sekunder melalui observasi selama 5 tahun. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa:
Profitabilitas yang memiliki sub Net Profit Margin (NPM), Return On Investment (ROI) dan Return On Equity
(ROE) memiliki koefisien korelasi R Ganda sebesar 0,521 terhadap harga saham pada bank swasta nasional di
Jakarta. Sehingga makin tinggi NPM, ROI dan ROE, maka semakin tinggi pula harga sahamnya. Leverage
dengan sub Deb Ratio (DR) dan Debt Equity Ratio (DER) juga memiliki koefisien korelasi R ganda 0,249, yang
berarti makin tinggi DR dan DER maka semakin tinggi pula harga saham bank swasta nasional di Jakarta.
Dengan demikian bank diharapkan meningkatkan kinerjanya dengan meningkatkan nilai NPM, ROI, ROE, DR
dan DER untuk dapat meningkatkan harga saham. Kinerja keuangan pada sebuah perusahaan merupakan salah
satu tolok ukur dalam menilai keberhasilan kebijakan manajemen. Tingkat kepercayaan pada investor dapat
ditingkatkan dengan penilaian atas analisa laporan keuangan. Para calon investor pun diharapkan memahami
kondisi keuangan perusahaan emiten agar dapat terpenuhi harapan akan capital gain.
