Abstract :

This study aimed to investigate the influence of principal’s spiritual leadership on teacher’s organizational commitment. Spiritual leadership is very interesting to study, because this leadership concept is a synthesis of value-based leadership constructs to answer problems related to human relations. Spiritual leadership has an important role to play in education as it can help build good relationships between principals and teachers, and increase teachers’ emotional and psychological attachment to the organization. Spiritual leadership can also help improve the quality of education and organizational performance. In addition, spiritual leadership can help improve teacher retention issues and increase organizational commitment. By applying spiritual leadership, principals can motivate and inspire individuals and engage every member of the organization to achieve school goals. Therefore, spiritual leadership can help create a positive learning environment and build a strong organizational culture in schools. The method used in this study was a literature review to investigate the influence of principals’ spiritual leadership on teachers’ organizational commitment. The article selection procedure was very rigorous using various selected journal databases to select ten research articles that met the inclusive criteria of this study. The results of this study show that spiritual leadership of school principals can significantly influence teachers’ organizational commitment.
