Abstract

Background - Teacher competencies include pedagogic, professionalism, social and personality. However, there are still many problems faced regarding the development and implementation of these competencies in schools. Purpose - This study aims to describe the effect of principal leadership and teacher competence on teacher performance with learning management as a mediating variable. Method/approach - The approach used in this research is quantitative with a correlational design. Findings - The results showed that: (1) principal leadership has a positive but insignificant effect on performance, T-count = 0. 943 and p-value = 0.346; (2) learning management has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance, T-count = 6.261 and p-value = 0.000; (3) teacher competence has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance, T-count = 6.033 and p-value = 0.000; (4) principal leadership, learning management, and teacher competence simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on teacher performance, R-square = 0.684 and SRMR = 0.064; (5) through the mediation path on learning management it is found that leadership indirectly has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance, T-count = 4.510 and p-value = 0.000; (6) through the mediator of learning management it is found that teacher competence indirectly has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance, T-count = 17.477 and p-value = 0. 000. Improving teacher performance is expected to be followed up with concrete steps through various competency improvement programs, training, and relevant policy improvements. Conclusion – Learning management plays a crucial mediating role in enhancing the impact of both leadership and competence on teacher performance. Strengthening this variable is key to improving teacher outcomes in schools. Novelty/Originality/Value – This study contributes to the literature by empirically validating learning management as a significant mediating factor between leadership, competence, and teacher performance—a relationship that is rarely explored in previous studies. The integration of leadership, competence, and instructional management provides a comprehensive model for improving educational quality.

Abstract

Educational leaders increasingly face complex professional pressures that demand not only managerial competence but also strong adaptive and emotional capacities. This study examines how internal and external factors contribute to principals’ resilience by integrating quantitative and qualitative evidence through a mixed-methods approach. Survey data were used to identify shared perceptions regarding resilience resources, while in-depth interviews explored how principals interpret challenges and sustain leadership effectiveness in practice. The findings reveal that resilience is shaped through the interaction between adaptive meaning-making, spiritual faith, and organizational support. Emotional regulation and a clear sense of professional purpose emerged as important internal resources, while collegial collaboration and family support functioned as reinforcing external mechanisms. Spiritual practices were found to play a significant role in stabilizing emotional responses and supporting reflective decision-making during demanding situations. Rather than operating as isolated factors, these elements interact dynamically to sustain leadership stability under pressure. The integration of quantitative and qualitative findings suggests that resilience should be understood as a relational–spiritual process embedded in everyday leadership experiences. The study highlights the importance of developing leadership support systems that integrate emotional, relational, and spiritual dimensions. These findings provide practical implications for leadership development programs by emphasizing holistic resilience training that strengthens emotional regulation, collaborative organizational culture, and value-based leadership practices to support sustainable educational leadership.
