THE EFFECT OF MANAGERIAL SKILLS, EDUCATION LEVEL, AND THE ROLE OF VILLAGE CONSULTATIVE BODY TOWARD THE PERFORMANCE OF VILLAGE HEAD IN DISTRIC BOJONEGORO

Peneliti memilih melakukan penelitian di Kabupaten Bojonegoro karena terdapat kasus penyalahgunaan dana desa oleh kepala desa dan terdapat kasus keterlambatan pelaporan APBDes kepada Bupati. Penelitian ini mempunyai tujuan yaitu untuk mengetahui beberapa faktor yang dapat meningkatkan efektivitas kinerja kepala desa dalam mengelola keuangan desa. Terdapat tiga variabel independen yang diuji yaitu kemampuan manajerial, tingkat pendidikan, dan peran BPD sedangkan variabel dependen pada penelitian ini yaitu kinerja pengelolaan keuangan desa. Penelitian ini mengambil setting di Kabupaten Bojonegoro dengan sampling kepala desa di 6 kecamatan yang menerima dana desa terbesar. Jenis data yang dipakai yaitu data primer yang dikumpulkan dengan pendistribusian kuesioner kepada  responden. Penyebaran kuesioner dilakukan dengan menemui kepala desa secara langsung di kantor kepala desa, menghadiri konferensi kepala desa, serta mengirim link kuesioner melalui media Whatsapp. Sampel yang terkumpul sebesar 150 responden yang diambil dengan menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Teknik analisis data yang dipakai yaitu regresi linier berganda dengan program aplikasi SPSS 23. Hasil pengujian mengindikasikan bahwa kemampuan manajerial dan peran BPD berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kinerja kepala desa, sedangkan tingkat pendidikan tidak mempunyai pengaruh terhadap kinerja kepala desa. Semoga pada penelitian selanjutnya dapat menggunakan faktor lain yang tidak dibahas pada penelitian ini, yang juga mempunyai pengaruh terhadap kinerja kepala desa.

Researchers chose to conduct research in Bojonegoro Regency because there were cases of misuse of village funds by the village head and there were cases of delays in reporting APBDes to the Regent. This study has the aim of knowing several factors that can increase the effectiveness of the performance of the village head in managing village finances. There are three independent variables tested, namely managerial ability, level of education, and the role of the BPD, while the dependent variable in this study is the performance of village financial management. This research is set in Bojonegoro Regency by sampling village heads in 6 sub-districts who receive the largest village funds. The type of data used is primary data collected by distributing questionnaires to respondents. The distribution of the questionnaires was carried out by meeting the village head directly at the village head's office, attending a village head conference, and sending a link to the questionnaire via Whatsapp media. The samples collected were 150 respondents who were taken using purposive sampling technique. The data analysis technique used is multiple linear regression with the SPSS 23 application program. The test results indicate that managerial ability and the role of the BPD have a significant effect on the performance of the village head, while the level of education has no effect on the performance of the village head. Hopefully in future research can use other factors that are not discussed in this study, which also have an influence on the performance of the village head.
