Abstract

Introduction: Conventional educational institutions around the world is currently hampered with disruptive wave. Educational institutions, particularly schools, stress the need of controlled change to keep up with external uncontrolled changes. Learning Organization (LO) is very suitable to beimplemented in every educational institution due to its conformity with continuous improvement and learning process. Objectives: This study aims to investigate the impact of Transformational Leadership (TL) on the creation of LO in a private school in Indonesia, especially towards millennial employees working there. Novelty: This research is conducted in regard to the contextual (the implementation of TL in an educational institution and the inclusion of demographic factor) and the theoretical gap (detailed perspective on each of the dimension of TL and the use of second order modelling) left by previous researches. Research Method: This study is designed as an applied research adopting mixed method approach to provide better triangulation and elaboration towards the case. Data is collected through survey and follow-up interview towards the sample. Findings: This study points out that the implementation of TL has positive and significant impact on the creation of LO in the school, while millennial age group does not moderate the impact of TL towards LO. In addition, Intellectual Stimulation is revealed to be the most reflective dimension of TL. Those results imply that the ability to correctly identify the contribution of each dimension in the leadership system will determine the success rate of an organization to implement changes.
