<![CDATA[Villages are the front line implementers in the implementation of national development. The success of implementing village development depends on the ability of the village head to increase community participation and manage and cultivate the potential that exists in the village. Village development should not only focus on physical development but should also prioritize non-physical development which includes development in the social, cultural and economic fields. The purpose of this study was to identify and describe the role of the village head in the implementation of non-physical development in Paringan Village, Jenangan District, Ponorogo Regency. Paringan Village was formerly a backward village and received a negative stigma as a crazy village. The vacancy of the village head position makes Paringan village lagging behind in various fields. However, since the leadership of the new village head has changed Paringan Village into an independent village full of achievements.

This study uses descriptive qualitative methods with data collection techniques through observation, interviews and documentation. Data analysis techniques are carried out through data collection, data condensation, data presentation, conclusion drawing and verification. The results of this study indicate that the Head of Paringan Village has played a role in the implementation of non-physical development and has brought progress in various fields to Paringan Village, Jenangan District, Ponorogo Regency.]]>
