Authentic leadership

Madrasah leadership is increasingly expected to translate educational regulations and institutional visions into accountable practices that strengthen teaching, organizational culture, and Islamic character formation. This study is designed to examine how ethical, servant, spiritual, and authentic leadership are interpreted and enacted in educational policy at MTs Darussalam Lubuklinggau. A qualitative single-case study will be conducted. Purposively selected participants are expected to include the madrasah principal, vice-principals, teachers, educational staff, committee representatives, and selected students, subject to access and ethical approval. Data will be generated through in-depth interviews, non-participant observations, and analysis of institutional documents. The analysis will combine iterative data condensation, display, and conclusion verification with theory-informed and inductive thematic coding. Source and method triangulation, participant checking, and an audit trail will be used to strengthen trustworthiness. Since fieldwork has not yet been conducted, this manuscript does not report empirical findings. Its intended contribution is an analytical framework connecting four complementary leadership perspectives with the stages of madrasah policy formulation, communication, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation.

Although the effect of authentic leadership on perceived school effectiveness is recognized, how this relationship changes depending on teachers’ professional collaboration has been insufficiently examined. This study aims to determine the moderating role of teacher professional collaboration in the relationship between authentic leadership and perceived school effectiveness. The research was conducted with 385 teachers working in high schools in Siirt, Türkiye, using a cross-sectional design and convenience sampling. Correlation analysis revealed positive and significant relationships among authentic leadership, professional collaboration, and perceived school effectiveness. Moderation analysis showed that teacher professional collaboration appears to strengthen the relationship between authentic leadership and perceived school effectiveness. Specifically, when professional collaboration among teachers is at moderate and high levels, the positive association between authentic leadership and perceived school effectiveness becomes stronger. These findings suggest that supporting teacher collaboration may be associated with enhanced teachers’ perceptions of school effectiveness.

اگرچه تأثیر رهبری اصیل بر اثربخشی ادراک‌شده مدرسه مورد تأیید قرار گرفته است، اما چگونگی تغییر این رابطه بسته به همکاری حرفه‌ای معلمان به اندازه کافی مورد بررسی قرار نگرفته است. هدف این پژوهش تعیین نقش تعدیل‌گری همکاری حرفه‌ای معلمان در رابطه بین رهبری اصیل و اثربخشی ادراک‌شده مدرسه است. این پژوهش با مشارکت ۳۸۵ معلم شاغل در دبیرستان‌های شهر سییرت ترکیه و با استفاده از طرح مقطعی و نمونه‌گیری در دسترس انجام شد. تحلیل همبستگی روابط مثبت و معناداری میان رهبری اصیل، همکاری حرفه‌ای و اثربخشی ادراک‌شده مدرسه نشان داد. تحلیل تعدیل‌گری نشان داد که همکاری حرفه‌ای معلمان به نظر می‌رسد رابطه بین رهبری اصیل و اثربخشی ادراک‌شده مدرسه را تقویت می‌کند. به طور خاص، زمانی که همکاری حرفه‌ای میان معلمان در سطح متوسط و بالا قرار دارد، ارتباط مثبت بین رهبری اصیل و اثربخشی ادراک‌شده مدرسه قوی‌تر می‌شود. این یافته‌ها نشان می‌دهد که حمایت از همکاری معلمان ممکن است با افزایش ادراک معلمان از اثربخشی مدرسه مرتبط باشد.
