The purpose of the study was to analyze the impact of spiritual leadership and employee engagement in increasing organizational commitment and employee performance. This study involved 193 non-permanent lecturers at Muhammadiyah Private Universities, Indonesia. The structural equation model based on Smart PLS 3.0 software was used for data analysis. The results of this study reveal that spiritual leadership is able to increase employee commitment to the organization and is able to improve employee performance. In addition, employee engagement in the organization can increase employee commitment and be able to improve employee performance. Other research results show that employee commitment to the organization does not improve employee performance. Also, organizational commitment is not able to mediate the relationship between spiritual leadership and employee engagement on employee performance.

Then Spiritual Leadership has a positive impact on employee behaviour innovation.…”
This article aimed to examine and analyze the effect of Spiritual Leadership and Psychological Empowerment on Employee Performance. Respondents were leaders or employees at YPPBU (Bahrul Ulum Islamic Boarding School Foundation) Jombang, totalling 64 respondents. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Square (PLS) with SmartPLS software version 3.0 and the relationship between variables. The results showed that Spiritual Leadership had no significant effect on Employee Performance (T Statistics: 0.925, P Values: 0.355). Psychological Empowerment has a considerable impact on Employee Performance (T statistic: 7,790, P Values: 0.000). Spiritual Leadership has a significant effect on Psychological Empowerment (T Statistics: 6,531, P Values: 0.000). Furthermore, Spiritual Leadership and Psychological Empowerment have no specific considerable impact on Employee Performance (T Statistics: 3,966, P Values: 0.000). Psychological Empowerment has a mediating role on Spiritual Leadership to Employee performance. The Spiritual Leadership and Psychological Empowerment felt by YPPBU's Leaders or Employees are directly proportional to the resulting performance. Changes in Spiritual Leadership and Psychological Empowerment will also affect Employee Performance.
