Abstract

Improving the quality of education in schools requires a sustainable and participatory strategy. Kaizen, known as a philosophy of continuous improvement in the industrial world, has the potential to be applied in the educational context. This study aims to explore how Kaizen principles can be adapted as a strategy to improve the quality of education in schools. Through a qualitative case study of an Integrated Islamic School that combines science and Islamic values, this study reveals that the implementation of Kaizen principles supported by the 5S concept, collective participation (teachers, students, and parents), effective leadership, regular evaluation, continuous improvement, and collaboration positively influences work culture and enhances the quality of educational services. These outcomes are facilitated through the use of PDCA, Gemba Walk, Kaizen Event, and the Suggestion System. The conclusion of this study suggests that Kaizen can be an effective strategy in creating an adaptive, participatory, and continuous improvement-oriented education system.

Abstract

This research addresses the need to understand student preferences in leadership seminar design at Esa Unggul University and aims to identify the seminar attributes that most strongly influence participation decisions. A quantitative approach was applied using Conjoint Analysis, involving 100 active students from various study programs who are members of the Student Executive Board (BEM). Data were gathered through structured questionnaires and analyzed to estimate utility scores and relative importance values across five attributes: seminar topic, speaker, delivery format, participation cost, and benefits. The findings show that students favor seminars on Leadership and Entrepreneurship, delivered by expert lecturers, implemented in a hybrid format, priced between IDR 20,000 and 50,000, and offering certificates combined with SKP or competency recognition. Importance value analysis indicates that speaker credibility, cost considerations, and topic relevance are the dominant factors shaping student preferences. Model validation results demonstrate strong predictive accuracy, with a Pearson correlation of 0.815 and Kendall’s tau of 0.407, both statistically significant. These results provide an empirical basis for universities and event organizers to develop leadership seminars that better align with student expectations, thereby improving engagement and program effectiveness.
