This study aims to analyze the role of spiritual leadership of the kiai in strengthening the organizational resilience of Al-Asy’ary Islamic Boarding School in the era of Society 5.0. The research employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the kiai, teachers, and students, as well as observation and supporting documentation. Data analysis followed the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, consisting of data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the kiai’s spiritual leadership is a key determinant of pesantren resilience through the integration of transcendental, ethical-humanistic, and adaptive-progressive dimensions. The kiai successfully guides the selective and meaningful use of digital technology by positioning it as a means of service (khadam), rather than an end in itself. Leadership practices based on role modeling, moral values, and spiritual reinforcement foster students’ moral autonomy and create a stable organizational climate amid digital disruption. This study concludes that the resilience of traditional pesantren in the Society 5.0 era lies in the strength of spiritual values sustained through adaptive and continuous spiritual leadership.

This study examines the crisis in teacher quality in the disruption era, caused by weak recruitment and selection systems that remain administrative, subjective, and lack transparency. The research aims to analyze the need for transforming recruitment and selection strategies toward a competency- and technology-based model as a solution to improve educational quality. This research employs a qualitative approach with a case study at MTs YPI Darul Huda Belitang OKU Timur. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, then analyzed descriptively using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. Data validity was tested through source and technique triangulation. The findings reveal that implementing competency- and technology-based recruitment systems, such as e-recruitment and online assessment, enhances objectivity, transparency, and efficiency in the selection process. This transformation strengthens teacher professionalism and improves the quality of educational institutions to become more adaptive to the challenges of the digital era.
