The central figure in pesantren is Kiai, who has the exclusivity in leading and managing the institution and resources of pesantren. Servant Leadership in pesantren, better known as Khidmah, is a concept encouraging all members of pesantren to have the same commitment, vision, and goal so that pesantren becomes relatively stable from the emerge of problems. Because developing pesantren necessitates strong commitment from all members of the organization management, Kiai's leadership style serves as a role model in strengthening organizational commitment of all members of pesantren
