Intrinsic Motivation INTRODUCTION The development of the fashion industry in Indonesia cannot be separated from cultural developments, globalization, and information technology which have entered Indonesia and become trends.
This also includes the development of fashion which continues to move dynamically following current trends and grows rapidly.
The strategy issue that is currently trending in Small Business activities is making MSMEs the backbone of the national economy.
However, in reality, growth is slowing down, so government intervention is needed to provide opportunities for creative economic growth to increase again.
As the backbone of the national economy, the issue inherent in employment conditions to be able to grow MSMEs is the absorption of work energy by creative businesses to help reduce poverty rates.
Empowerment and development of the existence of small business centers are very necessary so that they can grow and be sustainable, but this has not been fully supported by breakthroughs so that actors in these centers can survive, especially anticipating external environmental conditions when situations are unfavorable for MSMEs.
Table 1 below is a table of processed data results that have been created by researchers and then divided the fashion sector into 2 groups as follows:

The data collection results obtained in Table 1 state that although many small business groups are actively carrying out innovation activities, the success of small business actors in developing their businesses is not yet maximal, this is possible because small business actors are still not serious about mapping their potential, especially in packaging their business management.
The problems related to the success of entrepreneurs from the condition of the phenomena observed are as follows: .
The achievement of success of a business actor cannot be separated from his potential ability to create work through innovation on the idea of the work created.
The findings obtained during the pre-survey provide a brief overview that in general SMEs in creating product creations are quite capable of producing various product differentiations even though their nature is still very limited.
Limitations in the ability to produce a variety of products are generally caused by the majority of their work still relying on existing equipment while purchasing new machines is very expensive so the ability to work on exploring ideas is limited.
Apart from that, the lack of creativity to innovate for SMEs still cannot match the products produced by other traders who dare to carry out many product differentiations in large quantities.
Based on the results of the pre-survey in the field, it shows that the current skills attainment of SMEs is still not enough to show the changes desired by many parties, in fact this has become the main focus of attention from the government regarding improving the skills of each SME actor.
Achievements in improving skills for SMEs are the focus of the Bandung City government.
This is also supported by an explanation from the Chair of the West Java Province Dekranasda.
Ataliya Praratya, in his explanation that one of the challenges faced by the West Java government is providing education and training so that SMEs can be technologically literate and not only rely on traditional abilities.
Not only is the ability limited, but what every business owner also experiences is the willingness to try to change habits that always feel unsure about their innovative products which can later be felt to provide benefits in the future.
The Ministry of Communication and Information also conveyed the same thing, which was taken from explaining as follows that there are 5 biggest obstacles for SMEs in carrying out digital transformation in 2022, including the lack of intense digital skills training for SMEs.
That the majority of 50 people are still reluctant to collaborate with other competent parties so they are still going their own way.
The lack of collaboration received by business actors makes it difficult for them to get opportunities to collaborate to develop their capabilities.
Collaboration here with the government can open access as well as a challenge for SME owners in building their business sustainably according to the journal Rosyid & Ramadhani .
, it is said that one of the models that supports the integration of SME collaboration with the government is an opportunity as well as a challenge for SME owners in building sustainable partnerships through training and this role is still very Submitted: January 19, 2024.

difficult for business actors to be actively consistent in training with various .
Focus on the target by looking at the equal distribution of capabilities possessed by each SME in the 3 regions, that the existence of small business actors in the fashion sector in these regions is still not optimally managed and utilized their human resource potential about the gap in the standardization of their respective abilities so that From a macro perspective, it is considered difficult to industrialize.
The lack of equipment used is also one of the many factors that hinder the unequal ability of SME owners.
One of the keys to the success of a business is creativity.
Creativity and the act of turning new and imaginative ideas into reality is a rare art form (Levin, 2.
Understanding creativity .
will provide a strong basis for creating modules or tools about entrepreneurship.
According to Alma .
, it is not limited to just products and services but can also be in the form of processes, ideas, and methods that can create added value.
Creativity requires individuals to devote energy and take risks Zhang et al.
and therefore they can benefit from supportive and detailed feedback that encourages learning and improvement.
This feedback can motivate employees to be more interested in their work, open to new ideas, and involved in generating Basically, according to Rufaidah & Kodri .
, business innovation is the ability to apply creative solutions to problems and opportunities to increase or improve business With the desire and willingness to start looking for knowledge, attitudes, and skills towards an ability, business actors have begun to instill that they must begin to diligently learn to know many things about their field of work.

of the influence of creativity, competence, and motivation on the ability to innovate is 757 or 75.
7% of the current ability to innovate, influenced by the three independent variables, namely creativity, competence and intrinsic motivation.
The magnitude of the influence of each independent variable on the dependent variable, both direct effect and indirect effect, can be seen in the following table:

Based on Table 7, the results show that the partial influence exerted by creativity on the ability to innovate is 8.
The indirect influence of creativity through competence on the ability to innovate is 3.
5% and through intrinsic motivation is 3.
9%, so the total indirect influence of creativity on the ability to innovate is 7.
This indicates that the indirect influence of creativity on the ability to innovate is smaller than the direct influence.
The total influence of creativity on the ability to innovate, both directly and indirectly through competence and intrinsic motivation, is 16%.
Creativity can have a positive influence on the innovation ability of a small business actor because creativity is a core resource in the innovation process.
By thinking creatively, they can identify unmet market needs or new trends that can be followed to create innovative products that are in demand by consumers.
Innovation often involves overcoming obstacles or constraints in creating new products.
Small creative businesses tend to be better able to face challenges and find creative solutions to overcome technical or business problems that arise in the innovation process.
Hypothesis testing proves that there is an influence of creativity on the ability to innovate, supported by several theories and previous research, namely research by Rufaidah & Kodri .

which shows that creativity is a fundamental driver of innovation.
This indicates that creativity influences innovation.
Then, based on the results of data processing in Table 7, the results show that the partial influence given by competence on the ability to innovate is a direct influence contribution of 14.
The indirect influence of competence through creativity on the ability to innovate is 3.
5% and through intrinsic motivation is 7.
20%, so the total indirect influence of competence on the ability to innovate is 10.
This indicates that the indirect influence of competence on the ability to innovate is smaller than the direct The total influence of competence on the ability to innovate, both directly and indirectly through creativity and intrinsic motivation, is 24.
Entrepreneurial competence can influence the ability to innovate because entrepreneurial competence includes skills, knowledge, and attitudes that are the basis for planning, managing, and running a business.
Entrepreneurial competency includes creativity and the ability to generate new ideas.
Entrepreneurial competency involves the ability to recognize unfulfilled business opportunities or voids in the market.

capability, small businesses can identify opportunities to innovate and create products or services that are relevant to growing market demand.
Hypothesis testing proves that there is an influence of competence on the ability to innovate, supported by several theories and previous research, namely research conducted by Sidharta et al.
Rosyid & Ramadhani .
Pranowo et al.
Lengkey et al.
which states that entrepreneurial competence has an impact on the success of an entrepreneur.
or the success of small businesses, apart from the success of business actors, can be supported by competency factors by exploring and developing their knowledge by trying new things to influence their innovation capabilities.
Based on the results of data processing and data analysis, it was found that the partial influence exerted by intrinsic motivation on the ability to innovate is.
The contribution of the direct influence of the intrinsic motivation variable on the ability to innovate is 23.
The indirect influence of intrinsic motivation through creativity on the ability to innovate is 3.
9% and through competence is 7.
2%, so the total indirect influence of intrinsic motivation on the ability to innovate is 11.
This indicates that the indirect influence of intrinsic motivation on the ability to innovate is smaller than the direct The total influence of intrinsic motivation on the ability to innovate both directly and indirectly through creativity and competence is 34.
Intrinsic motivation can influence the ability to innovate in small businesses because intrinsic motivation is an internal drive that comes from personal satisfaction, interest, and a deep desire for the task or activity being carried out.
Intrinsic motivation encourages small business actors to be more involved and enthusiastic in the activities they carry out.
Intrinsic motivation is driven by personal satisfaction and inner rewards obtained from achievements in business.
When small businesses feel satisfied with the innovation they produce, they will feel more motivated to continue to innovate and create added value for customers and their businesses.
Hypothesis testing proves that there is an influence of intrinsic motivation on the ability to innovate, supported by several theories and previous research, namely research conducted by Kurniawan & Pratiwi .
Adriyanto & Prasetyo .
Su et .
Raeisi et al.

which states that intrinsic motivation has a positive effect on the ability to innovate.
This means that the higher the intrinsic motivation the higher the ability to innovate.
Thus, the proposed conceptual hypothesis has been tested and can be accepted.

Structural model 2 describes the relationship between the influence of the ability to innovate on the success of entrepreneurs which is expressed in the following hypothesis:
That the ability to innovate influences the success of entrepreneurs.
Based on the results of data processing from the LISREL program for structural model 2, following the hypothesis proposed, the following results are obtained:
Z = 0.
887*Y e2.
RA = 0.
Based on the equation above, it can be explained that the variable success of entrepreneurs is positively influenced by the ability to innovate with a path coefficient of 887, meaning that if innovation increases then the success of entrepreneurs will increase by 0.
887 units or innovation contributes to increasing success of entrepreneurs 887 units, or in other words that the success of entrepreneurs is influenced by the ability to innovate by 78.
7% while the remaining 21.
3% is influenced by other factors studied in this second path structure.
The success of entrepreneurs is positively influenced by the innovation ability of small businesses because innovation is one of the keys to creating added value, differentiating themselves from competitors, and responding to market changes.
Innovation allows small businesses to create unique added value in their products, services, or business processes.
Small businesses that implement innovation in production or operational processes can increase efficiency and productivity, thereby reducing costs and increasing profitability.
Small businesses that can innovate have a greater competitive advantage in the market.
Hypothesis testing proves that there is a significant influence of the ability to innovate on the success of entrepreneurs, supported by several theories and previous research, namely research conducted by several Tan et al.
Christofer & Memarista .
Sidharta et al.

The simultaneous influence of the variables Creativity.
Competence, and Intrinsic Motivation on Innovation is calculated using the following formula:

Oe ycI 2 ) .
Oe 3 Oe .
ya= 3.
Oe 0.
ya= ya = 238.
Based on the calculations, the Fcount value is 238,313, where the criterion for rejecting H0 is if Fcount is greater than Ftable or F0 > Ftable with degrees of freedom v1 = 3 and v2 = 250-3-1 and a confidence level of 5%, then from the F distribution table the Ftable value is obtained for F 0.
05, 3, 250 = 2.
because 238,313 is greater than 2.
then H0 is rejected, meaning it can be concluded that there is a linear relationship between Creativity.
Competence, and Intrinsic Motivation on Innovation or it can be interpreted that there is an influence of Creativity.
Competence, and Intrinsic Motivation on Innovation.
