“…The essence of national development is humans themselves who are the focal point of all development efforts and what will be built are their abilities and strengths as implementers and what will be built are their abilities and powers as implementers and drivers of development. Basically, village development is carried out by the community together with the government, especially in providing guidance, direction, guidance assistance, and supervision so that the community's ability to improve their standard of living and welfare can be improved (Taçoğlu 2019) Village development is carried out in the framework of a proper draw between the government and the community.…”

In this research, the writer or researcher uses qualitative research methods or methods. Namely the research used to examine or see the condition of natural objects or human activities, which are contrary or not in accordance with the experiment, where the researcher is an instrument or key researcher who is the driving force of research, data collection techniques in this study are carried out with a triangulation model (combined ), data analysis from this research emphasizes or produces meaning that qualitative research activities are more directed towards generalizing data. In this research, researchers focus on the field of development in infrastructure development programs. Based on the results of research conducted by the author about the effectiveness of the use of village funds in the implementation of programs in the field of development in Suralaga district, East Lombok regency in 2018, it can be measured using a target approach by looking at the outputs of activities, namely the realization of programs and the benefits of the programs classified as very effective.

“…Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are regarded as being extremely important to the global economy as more than 90% of all businesses of most countries fall into this category (Wang et al, 2020). Accordingly, the pivotal role that SMEs play as a catalyst on the world business economic growth has been widely addressed in recent academic literature (Taço glu et al, 2019). Despite their recognized importance, SMEs are under great pressures to survive in increasingly unpredictable business environments, and must continuously strive to maintain their competitiveness (Taço glu et al, 2019).…”

Purpose This study identified essential drivers of competitive productivity (CP) within the restaurant context at the meso-micro levels. Following evidence from previous research, this paper aims to discover if the relationships between the proposed drivers and restaurant competitive productivity (RCP) would differ based upon years in operations as a restaurant business (startup vs established). Design/methodology/approach Data analysis was conducted using responses obtained from US restaurant managers. Structural equation modeling assessed the hypothesized relationships. Additionally, multi-group analyses were conducted to test the proposed moderating roles of restaurant firm age within the proposed model. Findings Results documented that competitive personality, development and motivation were positively associated with employee competitive productivity (ECP) at the micro-level. Also, ECP, employee training, resource rareness, brand image and organizational culture were significantly and positively related to RCP at the meso-level. Additionally, the positive relationships between ECP and organizational culture, and RCP were greater in the established restaurant group compared with the startup group. However, the relationship between brand image and RCP was greater in the restaurant startup group than in the established group. Practical implications This study offered empirical evidence regarding a combination of meso and micro level drivers and their roles in improving RCP. Findings can be adopted to develop effective operational strategies to improve RCP. Originality/value Although RCP is critical and is proposed to be created by a comprehensive set of drivers considering organizational (meso-) and individual (micro-) situations, no literature has yet to adopt this comprehensive approach to assess RCP. This study focused on firm age and offered new knowledge about the need for developing specific strategies to improve RCP.
