This study aims to describe Emha Ainun Nadjib’s concepts of leader and leadership. This research uses qualitative methods with a narrative approach. The subjects of this study were Emha Ainun Nadib and the people closest to him including his eldest son and coordinator of several maiyah communities. In addition, the researcher read the works of Emha from the 1980s to the present and tried to juxtapose all of these works in order to achieve a thorough understanding. Data from this study were collected through interviews, field observations, online videos and audiovisual, and a reading into Emha’s works. The data were analyzed using the Miles & Huberman data analysis technique and a three-dimensional space approach of Clandinin and Conelly mapping analysis which includes interaction, continuity, and situation.
