Abstract

This study is motivated by the demands of the reform era, which emphasizes the improvement of education quality through the strategic role of the madrasah principal not only as a manager but also as a visionary leader capable of creating a conducive work environment and promoting teacher professionalism. The participatory and Islamic-oriented leadership style at the madrasah is considered to have a positive impact on teachers’ enthusiasm and sense of responsibility. This research uses a quantitative correlational approach with survey instruments to determine the extent to which leadership style influences teacher performance. The results show that the principal’s leadership style has a very significant effect on teacher performance, with a contribution of 88.5%. In comparison, the remaining 11.5% is influenced by other factors not examined in this study. These findings emphasize the crucial role of leadership style in enhancing teacher performance and the overall quality of education at madrasah.
