Abstract

This research aims to test the dimensions of success in measuring leadership management and to find the factors that shape leadership in an excellent Islamic university (IU). Respondents totaled 422 participants from leaders and lecturers at six Islamic universities in Indonesia. partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis is used to test 8 dimensions, 35 constructs, and 17 hypotheses. Management leadership is determined by the dominant factor, namely job evaluation (IM4, λ=90.70%), and human resources (OR3, λ=74.40%) is the lowest factor. The ability of the structural model to explain the measurement of IU’s leadership management is 79.70%. Furthermore, the 17 hypotheses from 8 dimensions have a positive and significant influence. Measurable dimensions can be used to develop an effective management model to increase the performance and function of leadership. Through the results of this research, higher education management institutions can recommend study substances to comprehensively find out the leadership model to be applied by leaders so they are more skilled and expert in managing institutions in higher education.

Abstract

International community service (ICS) is increasingly recognized as an effective approach for strengthening students’ global and intercultural competence. This study examined the impact of an ICS program conducted between State Islamic University of Kiai Ageng Muhammad Besari Ponorogo and Madrasah Utsmaniyah ABIM Penang, Malaysia, on students’ intercultural communication competence (ICC) and soft skills. Employing a mixed-methods convergent design, the study involved 12 participating students, faculty supervisors, ABIM coordinators, and local community leaders. Quantitative data were obtained through pre–post assessments using validated ICC and soft-skill scales, while qualitative data were collected through interviews, participant observation, and reflective journals. The findings indicate significant improvement across all ICC dimensions, including cultural awareness, sensitivity, communication skills, and reflective competence. Students also demonstrated notable enhancement in soft skills such as leadership, teamwork, adaptability, and empathy, supported by qualitative evidence of increased confidence, communicative flexibility, and ethical awareness during community engagement. Perspectives from supervisors and community stakeholders further corroborated the program’s effectiveness. Overall, the study highlights the value of culturally proximate international service-learning in fostering global competence within Islamic higher education and offers implications for developing sustainable cross-border community service initiatives in the ASEAN context.
