Collaborative Leadership in Creating the Vision and Mission of the Madrasah at MAN 3 Mataram

Collaborative leadership is a leadership approach that emphasizes the involvement of various parties in decision-making, program implementation, problem-solving, and evaluation to achieve organizational goals. This study aims to analyze the implementation of collaborative leadership by madrasah principals, their role in realizing the vision and mission, and the supporting and inhibiting factors in its implementation at MAN 3 Mataram. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study type. The research subjects were determined purposively involving teachers, education staff, madrasah committees, and madrasah supervisors. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, documentation studies, and triangulation, then analyzed using an interactive analysis model through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions and verification. The results show that collaborative leadership at MAN 3 Mataram has been implemented through the participation of madrasah members in planning, decision-making, implementation, problem-solving, and program evaluation. Collaborative leadership plays a strategic role in translating the vision and mission into concrete programs, improving the quality of learning, empowering teachers and education staff, and building partnerships with madrasah committees and supervisors. Supporting factors include the openness of the madrasah principal, the commitment of the madrasah members, a culture of cooperation, support from the committee and supervisors, and the division of tasks. Inhibiting factors include time constraints, differences in character and participation levels, limited facilities and infrastructure, limited resources and funding, and the busyness of the madrasa community. Therefore, collaborative leadership is a crucial approach to building a participatory work culture and supporting the achievement of the madrasa's vision and mission.
