2026-08-25T15:17:34+00:00

Women's communication styles generally have distinctive characteristics, such as being emotionally expressive, frequently using body language, tending to avoid direct confrontation, communicating in detail, using indirect language, and actively listening. The quality of this communication is greatly influenced by the resources and environment in which they operate. In the past, women were often considered a weaker group than men. However, today, they have proven capable of making significant contributions in various aspects of life. In today's digital context, the spirit of women's emancipation is growing stronger. Women are seen as equal to men, especially in terms of their roles and contributions through communication. Women in urban areas tend to use modern communication styles, while women in island regions still maintain conventional communication styles that are slowly transforming through innovation. This study found that the conventional communication model of coastal women is still rooted in traditional social systems, namely direct communication between individuals in the context of daily activities, such as business transactions for products caught by fishermen. However, modern developments have encouraged innovation, where coastal women have begun processing seafood into attractively packaged dried food products and marketing them through digital platforms. Digital media, including dedicated websites, have become a means of transforming communication styles and empowering coastal women to respond creatively and adaptively to social and economic changes.

Civil Servant Behavior Towards Public Service Compliance: a case study in Makassar City

2026-08-25T14:48:03+00:00

This study examines the behavior of civil servants toward compliance in public service delivery within the bureaucratic framework of Makassar City. Employing a qualitative literature review approach, the research synthesizes contemporary studies published between 2015 and 2024 to analyze how professionalism, ethics, leadership, and organizational culture collectively shape compliance behavior in Indonesia’s public sector. The findings reveal that compliance is not solely a function of regulatory enforcement but rather a product of moral internalization, professional competence, and ethical leadership. Bureaucratic structures characterized by hierarchy and procedural rigidity tend to produce formal rather than substantive compliance, emphasizing rule adherence over ethical responsibility. Conversely, environments that foster trust, reflective leadership, and participatory accountability cultivate intrinsic motivation among civil servants to uphold public service values. The review further underscores that training, merit-based human resource systems, and digital transparency mechanisms are essential in transforming compliance from a rule-bound duty into a professional ethos. Theoretical implications highlight the need for management scholars to reconceptualize compliance as an evolving moral capability shaped by institutional culture and leadership ethics. Practically, the study recommends integrated reform strategies that balance regulatory control with ethical empowerment and community engagement. Ultimately, sustainable compliance in Makassar’s bureaucracy and comparable governance contexts depends on embedding integrity and professionalism within the managerial core of public administration, aligning bureaucratic systems with the ethical aspirations of democratic governance.
