Abstract

Purpose − This study aims to analyze the strategies for improving the quality of human resources (HR) in Pesantren (traditional Islamic boarding schools) through the integration of spiritual values and modern management principles. Amid the pressures of modern educational standards, there is a strategic need for Pesantren to transform their HR management without losing their traditional essence. Method − This research employed qualitative case study design. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with 8 key informants—including foundation secretaries, university rectors, and school principals—as well as participatory observation and document analysis. The data analysis followed the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana. Findings − The findings reveal that HR transformation is achieved through three strategic pillars: (1) Value-based recruitment that prioritizes organizational loyalty and Ahlussunnah wal Jama’ah (mainstream Sunni Islamic traditions) values alongside academic linearity; (2) Integrated capacity building through cross-sector partnerships; and (3) A transcendental motivation system that balances material rewards with spiritual fulfillment (seeking divine blessing). The integration of these elements establishes the Holistic-Transcendental HRM Model. This article contributes to the HRM literature by demonstrating that spiritual values can function as the core operating system of institutional resilience, offering a highly sustainable alternative to conventional, secular material-based motivation.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the environmental crisis, which calls for a holistic approach grounded in religious values, particularly within the Islamic Boarding School environment. However, there has been little research that thoroughly examines how Islamic Boarding Schools integrate the values of Eco-sufism through the hidden curriculum to foster religious character that is environmentally conscious. This study aims to: (1) describe a model for integrating Eco-sufism through the hidden curriculum to foster students’ religious character; (2) identify the Eco-sufism values instilled through the hidden curriculum to enhance character education that is environmentally conscious; and (3) analyze the implications of Eco-sufism integration on students’ ecological behavior at Al-Amien Prenduan Islamic Boarding School. The approach used is a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection techniques including observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The informants were the leaders and caregivers, teachers, and students. The research was conducted from April 2025 to December 2025. Data analysis involved data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the model of Eco-sufism integration is manifested in the exemplary conduct of the kiai, daily routines, and the boarding school’s spatial layout, all of which are rich in ecological meaning. The internalized values include simplicity, balance with nature, and responsibility as stewards of the earth. Consequently, there is a shift in the students’ ecological behavior, characterized by an awareness of maintaining cleanliness, managing resources, and caring for environmental sustainability. This study confirms that an Eco-sufism-based hidden curriculum effectively shapes the students’ religious and ecological character in an integrated manner.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the role of strategic management in enhancing the organizational resilience of Pesantren Miftahul Qulub, an Islamic boarding school operating in a socially and religiously plural environment. Using a qualitative, ethnographic approach, data were gathered through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. The research reveals that the pesantren’s resilience is not solely rooted in religious tradition or charismatic leadership but is significantly influenced by strategic management practices. These include continuous internal and external environmental analysis, the institutionalization of multicultural Islamic values, and adaptive decision-making that fosters social capital and internal cohesion. Leadership at the pesantren continuously adapts its strategic orientation to the social dynamics of its plural environment, focusing on values like openness, equality, humanism, and local wisdom. By embedding these values into daily governance and operations, the pesantren can sustain public legitimacy, strengthen relationships with diverse stakeholders, and navigate the challenges of social and religious diversity. The novelty of this research lies in its integrated model that links strategic management, multicultural Islamic commitments, and organizational resilience in plural societies. Unlike previous studies that treat these concepts in isolation, this study demonstrates their co-evolution within pesantren governance. The findings highlight the importance of three interconnected governance practices: systematic environmental scanning, institutionalization of multicultural values, and resilience-building through routines that maintain legitimacy and cohesion. This framework not only provides practical guidance for pesantren leaders but also contributes to comparative research on religious organizations in diverse settings, emphasizing the transferability of these findings to other contexts.
