This research used a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation studies. The findings of this study show that (1) principals apply instructive leadership style (telling) in improving discipline, (2) principals apply consultative leadership style (selling) in improving teachers' work motivation, (3) principals apply delegative leadership style (delegating) in improving teachers' responsibility, and (4) principals face several obstacles, such as declining teacher discipline, lack of teacher performance motivation, and low sense of teacher responsibility in learning.
