This research aims to provide an overview of women's leadership (Nyai) in leading Islamic boarding schools. The method used in this research is qualitative case study research. This research gathered information from four selected informants: the CEO, institutional managerial level leaders, and Asar Humanitarian Foundation staff. From the research results, it was found that the leadership of the humanitarian organization Asar Humanity Foundation (Nyai) considered the charismatic, transformational, transactional, and visionary leadership styles to be suitable to implement.
