Education in the digital era faces major challenges that demand transformation in school leadership practices. The industrial revolution 4.0 and the acceleration of digitalization after the COVID-19 pandemic have forced educational institutions to adapt quickly to changes in technology and learning methods. The main problem faced is how school principals manage and lead this change in order to improve the quality of education through effective collaboration. This study aims to explore the role of digital leadership in building a collaborative culture in schools as an effort to improve the quality of education. The method used is a qualitative approach with a literature study design to explore theories and findings related to digital leadership and collaborative culture. The research results show that effective principals have the ability to integrate technology into school management, as well as facilitate collaboration between teachers through digital platforms and Professional Learning Communities (PLC). In addition, leadership that supports the development of trust and psychological safety among teachers and the appropriate use of technology for collaboration are key factors. Recommendations included improving principals' digital competencies, using effective digital collaboration platforms, and establishing time structures that support collaboration.
