Abstract

The leadership of the madrasa head plays a crucial role in determining the quality and effectiveness of educational institutions, particularly through efforts to mobilize, manage, and develop the human resources of the madrasa community. This study aims to analyze the leadership strategies of madrasa heads in improving the quality of human resources through managerial functions, including planning, organizing, implementing, and supervising educational activities. This research employed a qualitative multi-site case study approach. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving madrasa heads, teachers, administrative staff, and other relevant stakeholders. Data were analyzed using individual case analysis and cross-site analysis to identify patterns and similarities across the research sites. Data validity was ensured through credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability. The findings indicate that madrasa heads improve human resource quality through four interconnected leadership functions: planning human resource development, organizing resources and responsibilities, implementing development programs and institutional activities, and supervising performance and professional development. These functions demonstrate that effective madrasa leadership is not limited to administrative management but also involves strategic efforts to mobilize the madrasa community and foster continuous human resource development. The study concludes that systematic, participatory, and continuous leadership contributes significantly to strengthening the quality of human resources and supporting the achievement of madrasa educational goals.
