Abstract:

This study aims to analyze the role of transformational leadership in improving the performance of principals in elementary schools in Tangerang. Using a qualitative approach with a case study method, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis. The research subjects consisted of principals, teachers, and administrative staff from several elementary schools in Tangerang. The findings reveal that transformational leadership has a significant impact on school performance. Principals who adopt this leadership style demonstrate idealised influence, provide inspirational motivation, encourage critical thinking, and offer individualised consideration to their staff. These practices lead to increased teacher motivation and professionalism, a more collaborative work environment, and improved student achievement. However, the study also identifies challenges in implementing transformational leadership, including limited resources and resistance to change from some staff members. Overcoming these challenges requires continuous support through leadership training and the establishment of policies that foster innovation. The study concludes that transformational leadership is a key factor in enhancing the performance of principals and the overall success of schools. Recommendations include the development of leadership training programs and strengthening collaboration between schools and their communities to sustain improvements in educational outcomes.
