Individual behavior may contribute to organizational effectiveness, but syntheses integrating psychological, organizational, and Islamic perspectives in educational contexts remain limited. This study aims to map psychological and organizational factors associated with individual behavior and their implications for organizational effectiveness. The method used was a systematic literature review (SLR) following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Of the 50 records identified through web searches and citation chasing, 13 studies met the inclusion criteria and were thematically synthesized. The included studies were published between 2017 and 2026, within the eligibility period of 2015–2026. The synthesis indicates that the literature associates individual behavior with motivation, job satisfaction, perception, and individual needs, as well as organizational factors such as leadership, organizational culture, justice, and structural support. These factors were reported to be associated with collaboration, productivity, performance, and organizational effectiveness. Nine studies discussed Islamic values, including amanah (trustworthiness), justice, consultation (shura), and ihsan (excellence), as ethical and spiritual dimensions. However, the application of these values was uneven, and most of the available evidence was conceptual. The findings suggest that educational institution leaders should examine factors associated with individual behavior, establish fair organizational systems, and translate Islamic values into observable and evaluable practices.
