The mandate of the university is shaping and sharpening thinking of the lecturers, students, and alumni to always siding, thinking and acting for the benefit and improvement of the surrounding communities. One alternative models of leadership that are relevant to college is spiritual leadership. Spiritual leadership has been tested and researched by Louis W.

According to Fry spiritual leadership is the incorporation of the necessary values, attitudes and behaviors to motivate intrinsically oneselves and others to be such a way so that they have a sense of spiritual defense through the call of duty and membership. Spiritual leadership model is studied by the author in STAIN Purwokerto, as Islamic educational institutions which incidentally has been practicing spiritual values in their environment. The study was conducted using qualitative research and case study approach. Spiritual leadership in STAIN Purwokerto is constructed based on three important things: First, the existence of spiritual values that were held by leaders and serve as an ideology or belief to motivate himself and others. Spiritual values are values such are togetherness, belief or determination, and obeying the rules. Second, building tradition of spiritual leadership that is reflected in the actions taken by leaders in achieving the vision to be achieved by STAIN Purwokerto. The habitual process is done by sticking to spiritual values carried. Then it is implemented by issuing flagship programs supported by strategic policies carried out intensively so that it becomes a regular agenda of the academic community and staff as well as to produce a healthy organizational culture and quality. Third, organizational culture is fostered by building a dynamic atmosphere, full of family-like-feeling, cooperation, open and respectful in terms of spiritual, intellectual and professional. The efforts are made from simple things and daily life by providing deep meaning so that it can be used as a driver towards the direction of progress .
