Abstract

This study aims to determine the influence of environmental uncertainty, accountability, management competency, internal control, and management commitment towards village-owned enterprises (VOEs) performance in Cianjur Region, West Java during pandemic COVID-19. The study used a mixed-methods approach with sequential exploratory strategy i.e. two-stage. The first stage was hypothesis testing using SPSS v.15, and the second stage using deductive thematic analysis. The result of this study shows that environmental uncertainty has negative effect towards the performance of the VOEs during pandemic COVID-19. It also shows management competency has positive effects towards the VOEs performance. On the other hand, accountability, internal control, and management commitment do not affect the VOEs^ performance during pandemic COVID-19. This implies there is a need to improve management competencies including in utilizing relevant technology in order to overcome the impact of the pandemic on VOEs^ performance.
