COLLECTIVE-COLLEGIAL: LEADERSHIP MODEL OF MUHAMMADIYAH EDUCATION
Abstract
This literature study describes a collective-collegial leadership model applied in Muhammadiyah
schools. This leadership model is regarded as unique due to its special characteristic once it is
compared with other educational leadership theory. Through this study, we find out that the
collective-collegial leadership model is put on together by school leads through division of tasks and
responsibilities based on their respective main duties. Each school’s decision is made by collective
deliberation, not based on authority of single headmaster. In addition to uphold organization tradition
based on the model, Muhammadiyah schools are also able to keep the principles and mission of
Muhammadiyah in organizing education.
