The Leadership Style Method of the Village Head in Sembuluh Dua Village in Educating the Community About the Land Registration Process

Abstract

This study examines the communication methods used by the Head of Sembuluh Dua Village to educate the community about the land registration process. This education is crucial considering the importance of land ownership certificates for village residents to ensure legal certainty over their land. The study employs a qualitative approach with observation and in-depth interviews with the Village Head and local residents. The results show that the Head of Sembuluh Dua Village applies several communication strategies, including face-to-face meetings, mass counseling, the use of print media such as pamphlets and posters, and digital media such as the village WhatsApp group. Face-to-face meetings are considered effective in building trust and allowing for two-way dialogue, while mass counseling and print media help reach a broader community. The use of digital media facilitates the rapid and efficient dissemination of information, though there are challenges in accessibility for some residents. In conclusion, the combination of these various communication methods successfully enhances the community's understanding of the importance of land registration and the procedures that must be followed, although further efforts are needed to overcome digital information access barriers.
