Pelatihan Kepemimpinan Transformasional Islami Bagi Pengelola Madrasah dan Pesantren

Abstract

This community service activity aims to enhance the leadership capacity of madrasah and pesantren administrators through the implementation of an Islamic transformational leadership model. The initiative is based on the need to improve managerial and spiritual competencies of educational leaders to effectively respond to contemporary challenges in an adaptive and value-oriented manner. The program was conducted at Madrasah Aliyah and Pesantren Nurul Huda, Jember Regency, involving 25 participants, including heads of madrasah, vice principals, and senior teachers. The method employed was the Participatory Action Approach (PAA) through stages of needs assessment, Islamic transformational leadership training, managerial workshops grounded in Islamic values, implementation mentoring, and evaluation. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in participants’ understanding of Islamic leadership values, effective communication skills, and the application of transformational principles in institutional management. Participants were able to internalize values such as amanah, tabligh, fathanah, and shiddiq as the foundation for inspirational and integrity-based leadership. This program contributed to establishing a humanistic, participatory, and quality-oriented Islamic leadership culture within madrasah and pesantren environments. The activity is expected to serve as a sustainable training model to strengthen human resource capacity in Islamic education in Indonesia.
