https://ijbtob.org/index.php/ijbtob/article/view/264
<p><em>Tourism is one that is able to encourage the economic growth of a region. In various countries in Europe and America, tourism is a contributor to the increase in national income and foreign exchange of a country. In the data for 2020, after the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, world tourist arrivals fell drastically by -80%. This study aims to describe the development and promotion of tourism with a sustainable economic approach by taking into account social and environmental aspects. This research is a research library where researchers obtain data based on secondary data and scientific references such as books, journals, notes and reports as well as statistical data. The approach taken is descriptive qualitative. The stages in the research consist of collecting library materials, making research notes, sorting data and drawing conclusions. The results show that the development of tourist areas in Central Kalimantan must be carried out with a social approach to the community that emphasizes local cultural customs and sustainable tourism. Development is a strategic step in increasing the interest of local and visiting foreign tourists. The development is carried out with a planning pattern that involves experts from both academics and tourism practitioners. Tourism development and promotion strategies are ways or efforts to increase interest and the number of tourist visits by developing tourist objects and other supports. Several strategies for developing and promoting tourism in Central Kalimantan after the COVID-19 pandemic include identifying targets, making policies, creating a tourism climate, designing promotional messages, selecting promotional channels, determining budgets, determining the promotion mix and evaluating promotions.</em></p>Isra Misra

https://ijbtob.org/index.php/ijbtob/article/view/265
<p><em>While previous studies in the literature have concentrated extensively on investigating employee engagement and communication behaviors in relation to other organizational variables, very little research has examined the association between the two constructs. Therefore, the present study aimed to address this deficiency in the literature of public relations by examining the effect of engagement on employee communication behaviors. Specifically, forms of engagement, including alignment, affective and action-orientation (Shrotryia and Dhanda, 2020) were posited as antecedents to Kim and Rhee’s (2011) two dimensions of employee communication behavior, namely megaphoning and scouting. Using non-probability snowball sampling, a total of three hundred and seventy eight Moroccan employees who currently work for Moroccan private organizations participated in the study by filling out a 20-item questionnaire. By deploying Pearson-product moment correlation and linear regression, all three dimensions of engagement were found to be significantly associated with employees’ megaphoning and scouting behaviors. The study highlights the critical role of enhancing cognitive, affective and behavioral engagement of employees in influencing megaphoning and scouting behaviors. Important implications of the findings are discussed. In addition, the study’s limitations and recommendations for future research are addressed.</em></p>Khalid BourroukAdiba BousfihaAdnane Mrabti

https://ijbtob.org/index.php/ijbtob/article/view/267
<p><em>The COVID-19 pandemic caused so many challenges that business owners were forced to stretch their strategies to survive and sustain their operations. Hence, the researchers aimed to determine and analyze the challenges and opportunities of non-food delivery-based enterprises amidst the pandemic. The researchers purposively selected 70 non-food delivery-based enterprises. A spatial-descriptive design was used to process and interpret the study. Considerably, the findings of the study revealed that non-food delivery-based enterprises in the municipality of Tanza, Cavite, were mostly under sole proprietorship, with limited staff, a business capitalization range below Php 3,000,000, and newly opened businesses. The key challenges identified in the study were cash borrowing, resource management, maintaining a consistent customer experience, new marketing trends, and curfew hours. On the other hand, selling more products or services, improving customer feedback, investing in developing business opportunities, and using new technology to increase efficiency are key opportunities.</em><em> The researchers recommend strengthening marketing strategies that focus on enabling mechanisms for financial sustainability, customer satisfaction, and flexibility in the pandemic-led market environment.</em></p> <p><em> </em><strong>Keywords</strong><em>: </em><em> challenges, COVID-19 pandemic, delivery enterprises, descriptive research, opportunities</em></p>Crugie Boy A.
