Abstract

This study aims to construct an integrative conceptual framework of effective leadership in Integrated Quality Management (IQM) grounded in Islamic leadership values. Employing a conceptual synthesis approach through an integrative literature review, this study analyzed sources from Scopus, ERIC, and nationally accredited journals (2015–2025) relevant to effective leadership, TQM, and Islamic educational leadership. The key finding produces a theoretical proposition that Islamic values, amanah (trustworthiness), syura (consultation), 'adl (justice), and ihsan (excellence) are not merely ethical complements, but foundational principles that reinforce and transform the core mechanisms of IQM. The resulting integrative leadership model comprises four interrelated pillars: visionary, participatory, transformational, and moral leadership, collectively constructing a holistic quality management paradigm. The contribution of this article lies in positioning Islamic values as an alternative epistemology in educational quality management, transcending the dichotomy of managerial efficiency and spiritual integrity, and opening a broader empirical research agenda in Islamic educational institutions.
