Student Self-Leadership Ability Reviewed from Student Organization Activity in Indonesia

Abstract

Self-leadership ability research aims to determine self-leadership ability in students who are active and not actively participating in organizational activities by identifying the points of measurement of self-leadership ability in students between batches of USD Guidance and Counseling study program class of 2017-2020. The phenomenon of student behavior shows indications of problems with weak self-leadership that differ between active students and not actively participating in organizational activities. The influence of organizational activity is an opportunity for self-development, but the problem of student activity units as a means of organizing only reaches a few interested students, causing whether there is a difference in student self-leadership abilities that are influenced by organizational activity. Research shows that previous journals only focused on interpersonal communication skills, while this study looked broadly at aspects that influence the development of self-leadership abilities through organizational activity. This study uses a type of comparative descriptive research with questionnaires as an instrument for collecting data in research. The subjects of the study were students of the Guidance and Counseling Study Program of Sanata Dharma University Yogyakarta class of 2017-2020 totaling 210 students. It was revealed that there is no difference in self-leadership ability in students of the USD Guidance and Counseling study program class of 2017-2020 in terms of organizational activity with a p-value of 0.522 > 0.05. This research can be developed more broadly on the theme of organizational experience, self-leadership development, internship programs, and academic achievement results.
