Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh kepemimpinan etis kepala sekolah terhadap kinerja profesional guru di SMA Negeri 1 Karanganom. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain explanatory untuk menguji hubungan kausal antar variabel. Populasi penelitian adalah seluruh guru dengan teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan total sampling sebanyak 66 responden. Pengumpulan data dilakukan menggunakan kuesioner dengan skala Likert yang telah diuji validitas dan reliabilitasnya. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan regresi linear sederhana dengan bantuan perangkat lunak SPSS melalui uji t dan koefisien determinasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kepemimpinan etis kepala sekolah berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kinerja profesional guru, dengan nilai koefisien determinasi (R²) sebesar 0,323. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa semakin tinggi penerapan kepemimpinan etis, semakin meningkat kinerja guru dalam melaksanakan tugas pembelajaran. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa kepemimpinan berbasis nilai etika menjadi faktor penting dalam meningkatkan kualitas kinerja guru secara berkelanjutan.
