The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between religious leadership style and employee work motivation levels, and to describe the extent to which the application of religious values influences loyalty and work enthusiasm. The method used is a qualitative approach with observation techniques, in-depth interviews, Focus Group Discussions (FGD), and the distribution of Likert-based questionnaires. The results show that leaders with prominent religious characters based on the values of honesty, sincerity, responsibility, and justice are able to create a harmonious work atmosphere, increase intrinsic motivation, and strengthen employee loyalty.
