The generational gap between Baby Boomers and Gen Z in Indonesian political leadership creates significant challenges in leadership regeneration and political organization effectiveness, exacerbated by fundamental differences in leadership paradigms, communication preferences, and decision-making approaches. This study aims to analyze and develop an integrative leadership model based on the principles of Jesus' leadership to bridge the generation gap in the context of Indonesian political democracy. The methodology uses a qualitative approach with comprehensive literature analysis, including biblical studies on Jesus' leadership, academic literature on leadership theory, and generational dynamics. Jesus' leadership model offers a transformative framework that integrates traditional values with contemporary innovations through servant leadership and bridging leadership. The implementation of a collaborative leadership framework has shown significant effectiveness in improving bilateral knowledge transfer, reducing generational polarization, and strengthening multi-generational participation. The study concludes that the contextual adaptation of Jesus' leadership principles can create a sustainable and inclusive leadership model in Indonesia's political democracy.
Abstrak
Kesenjangan generasi antara Baby Boomer dan Gen Z dalam kepemimpinan politik Indonesia menciptakan tantangan signifikan dalam regenerasi kepemimpinan dan efektivitas organisasi politik, diperparah oleh perbedaan fundamental dalam paradigma kepemimpinan, preferensi komunikasi, dan pendekatan pengambilan keputusan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis dan mengembangkan model kepemimpinan integratif berbasis prinsip-prinsip kepemimpinan Yesus untuk menjembatani kesenjangan generasi dalam konteks demokrasi politik Indonesia. Metodologi menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan analisis literatur komprehensif, meliputi studi Alkitabiah tentang kepemimpinan Yesus, literatur akademik tentang teori kepemimpinan, dan dinamika generasi. Model kepemimpinan Yesus menawarkan kerangka transformatif yang mengintegrasikan nilai-nilai tradisional dengan inovasi kontemporer melalui kepemimpinan yang melayani dan kepemimpinan yang menjembatani. Implementasi kerangka kerja kepemimpinan kolaboratif menunjukkan efektivitas signifikan dalam meningkatkan transfer pengetahuan bilateral, reduksi polarisasi generasional, dan penguatan partisipasi multi-generasi. Penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa adaptasi kontekstual prinsip kepemimpinan Yesus dapat menciptakan model kepemimpinan berkelanjutan dan inklusif dalam demokrasi politik Indonesia.
