This study analyzes the strategic management of educators’ and staff work ethic development at Al-Muhajir Foundation, Randuagung Lumajang. The institution’s quality is strongly influenced by human resources, particularly leadership in designing and executing strategies. The research focuses on three aspects: (1) strategic planning, (2) implementation, and (3) evaluation. Using a qualitative case study, data were obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation, then analyzed with Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, ensuring validity with source and technique triangulation. Findings show that strategic planning involves SWOT analysis, vision–mission formulation, and goal setting. Implementation is carried out through training, self-development, internships, and comparative studies, while evaluation includes weekly and monthly meetings, religious studies, and annual assessments (munaqosah). These strategies collectively foster work ethic, professionalism, and organizational commitment, contributing to the foundation’s educational quality improvement.
