Abstract

This study aims to analyze digital transformation management at Madrasah Tsanawiyah Assalimiyah, Purbolinggo, East Lampung, focusing on leadership strategies, human resource readiness, and educational quality improvement. This study employed a qualitative approach with a case study design, using interviews, observations, and documentation for data collection. The findings indicate that digital transformation is supported by the leadership of the madrasah principal through efforts to improve teachers’ digital competencies, develop an adaptive work culture, and conduct regular monitoring. Human resource readiness is a crucial factor in the success of digital transformation, although several challenges remain, including differences in digital competencies, limited infrastructure, and adaptation to organizational change. Digital transformation contributes to improving administrative effectiveness, the learning process, communication, and teacher professionalism.
