Revitalisasi Manajemen Strategi Pendidikan Islam di Masa Pandemi COVID-19: Tantangan, Inovasi, dan Prospek Ke Depan

Abstract

Excellent education is one that can develop skills, shape character, and enhance the civilization of a nation. Therefore, it needs to be implemented within the school environment through the strengthening of faith, piety, noble morals, health, abilities, creativity, independence, democracy, and responsibility towards students and all education stakeholders. Quality is the key to success and the most effective competitiveness. Individuals with high quality have a significant chance of achieving success, making strategic management in education crucial in selecting quality leaders to achieve optimal educational standards. Facing the demands of competitiveness and changes triggered by globalization, the implementation of strategic management is necessary, especially in educational institutions. By applying strategic management, educational institutions can compete effectively, enhance the quality of educational services, and anticipate the dynamics of change. Educational management within the school system is just one aspect of the leadership's responsibility. School leaders, as education managers, are responsible for managing challenges from both internal and external environments. The external environment directly includes factors that directly impact the operational aspects of educational institutions, such as educational conditions, competition, public perception of educational institutions, and the labor market's needs for graduates.
