Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of Perceived Organizational Support and Sense of Belonging on Teacher Empowerment among private elementary school teachers in Padang Utara District, Padang City. A quantitative explanatory research design was employed. The population consisted of 206 teachers, with 135 respondents selected using proportional stratified random sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS 26. The findings indicate that Perceived Organizational Support has a positive but not statistically significant effect on Teacher Empowerment (r = 0.161; R² = 2.6%). In contrast, Sense of Belonging shows a positive and significant effect (r = 0.222; R² = 4.9%). Simultaneously, both variables significantly influence Teacher Empowerment (r = 0.270; R² = 7.3%), although their combined contribution remains relatively low. Sense of Belonging is a more dominant factor in enhancing Teacher Empowerment compared to Perceived Organizational Support. Strengthening teachers’ emotional attachment to the organization is essential for improving empowerment.

Abstract

Transformational Leadership is a person's skill in influencing others so that they are willing to follow what their leader wants. In the educational context, an educator, known as a teacher, is a profession crucial for implementing the best education. This study aims to understand how teachers interpret and give meaning to transformational leadership styles within the context of a phenomenological study. Data were collected through in-depth interviews using a qualitative Max Van Manen hermeneutics approach with three themes and subthemes: motivation, inspiration, and intellectual stimulation. Teachers were selected and described in a measurable manner to explore their experiences and emerging meanings. The results indicate that transformational leadership provides motivation, inspiration, and intellectual stimulation that encourage teacher performance in achieving achievement, while strengthening interpersonal relationships and professionalism. This study emphasizes the importance of implementing transformational policies in improving the performance and quality of education in schools. These findings empower the development of principals' leadership competencies to create a more productive learning environment and support teacher development.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of supportive leadership by school principals and school culture on teachers’ performance in junior high schools in Limapuluh Kota Regency. The main issue addressed in this research is the variation in teachers’ performance, which is presumed to be influenced by differences in principals’ leadership styles and the strength of school culture in each educational institution. The study employs a qualitative approach using in-depth interviews with principals, teachers, and educational staff selected purposively. Data were analyzed through processes of reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing using thematic analysis techniques. The findings reveal that supportive leadership by principals has a strong impact on improving teachers’ performance. Principals who demonstrate empathy, provide moral and professional support, and foster open communication are proven to enhance teachers’ motivation, self-confidence, and loyalty to their duties. Moreover, a positive school culture, characterized by values of cooperation, discipline, responsibility, openness, and appreciation for achievement, also contributes significantly to shaping professional and quality-oriented teacher performance. Both variables show a complementary and reinforcing relationship. Supportive leadership serves as a driving force for establishing a healthy school culture, while a strong school culture enhances the effectiveness of supportive leadership.

Abstract

Schools are required to adapt to the dynamics of the digital era through the implementation of leadership that can direct, facilitate, and inspire educators to be able to utilize technology creatively and productively. This study aims to describe and analyze the influence of the principal's digital leadership and work motivation on teacher creativity at SMAN 1 Pasaman Barat. The research approach used was qualitative with in-depth interviews to comprehensively explore teachers' experiences, views, and interpretations regarding digital leadership practices and the motivational drives that influence their creativity in learning activities. Research informants were selected purposively, consisting of the principal and several teachers actively involved in the implementation of digital-based learning. The results of the study indicate that the principal's digital leadership plays a significant role in fostering teacher motivation and creativity. The principal functions not only as an administrative decision-maker but also as an agent of change capable of building a collaborative, open, and innovation-oriented digital work culture. The principal's support in the form of training, guidance, and providing space for creative freedom has been proven to increase teacher enthusiasm in developing technology-based learning. On the other hand, teacher work motivation emerged as a reinforcing factor that channels positive energy towards the birth of new ideas.

Abstract

Digital transformation has changed the landscape of educational organisations—replacing many face-to-face interactions with hybrid and virtual interactions and requiring education leaders to adapt their leadership styles. This article reviews the 2015–2025 literature on two leadership styles relevant to the digital age: supportive leadership and authentic leadership, and how these two styles help build trust and team support in the digital education environment. The research method was a systematic literature review of relevant journals, scientific articles, policy reports, and literature reviews. The synthesis results show: (1) effective digital leadership requires a combination of personal support and openness/authenticity to maintain trust; (2) concrete practices include structured communication, technology support policies, collaborative learning, and decision transparency; (3) the main obstacles are uneven digital literacy, cultural resistance, and infrastructure limitations. Recommendations are provided for school leaders and educational institutions to implement interventions focused on strengthening interpersonal relationships, establishing clear virtual work rules, and improving staff digital capabilities.

This leadership also strengthens teacher collaboration through the formation of learning communities, effective communication, and the provision of space for cross-subject cooperation. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the role of the principal as an agent of change and recommendations for SMPN 2 Lubuk Alung in building a sustainable innovative and collaborative school organisational culture.
