Abstract
Self-image is a concept of an individual himself. It is formed from learning and
experiences that turn into a belief of an individual identity. It is a way of a person sees
inside and thinks about himself in this present time. The self-image of leader is a positive
perspective of his existence as a good leader according to his followers’ realistic
perspective on him. The dimension of leadership positive self-image must be a realistic
personal characteristic of a leader, not merely an effort of self-imaging for the time being.
A leader should be able to decide on how he will listen to, explain about, see, and judge
something consistently. The specification of Islamic leader of any level and sector should
reflect positive self-image of a d leader as a part of worship and jihad fisabilillah for the
sake of Alloh.
