Strategy 1: leadership development in personality, work skills, and human relations. Strategy 2: leadership development in wittiness and intelligence. Strategy 3: leadership development in communication skills, technology and innovation. Strategy 4: leadership development in morals and ethics. Components of these strategies include goals, measures and mechanisms for action.The results of the overall strategic evaluation showed that its appropriateness, feasibility, and acceptability is at a high level. Recommendations for the implementation of the strategy should provide the approach and action plan at all levels. Students’ leadership development activities must be continued using baseline research. Students are volunteering to develop themselves. In addition, cultivating good attitude in self-development leads to application in life and work in the future.
