| Purpose: This study aims to construct an indigenous model of values-based strategic leadership derived from the testaments of commanders of the Sacred Defense. It addresses the core analytical question of how spiritual, ideological, operational, and social values function as strategic mechanisms in leadership under crisis. The study evaluates whether values act merely as ethical guidelines or constitute a comprehensive, action-oriented operating system for leadership. Design/Methodology/Approach: Employing a qualitative design grounded in Thematic Analysis, 30 authenticated testaments of IRGC and Army commanders were examined. Through an inductive multi-stage coding process—including open coding, thematic clustering, and synthesis—90 conceptual codes, 34 basic themes, 12 organizing themes, and 4 overarching thematic dimensions were identified. Findings: The findings demonstrate that values in this context are not background moral elements, but strategic drivers shaping leadership cognition, decision-making, mobilization, and organizational alignment. The resulting model comprises four dimensions: (1) Ontological-Spiritual Foundation (God-centricity, sincerity, Ashura-based meaning-making); (2) Political-Revolutionary Logic (loyalty to Velayat-e Faqih, preserving the Islamic Revolution, anti-arrogance logic); (3) Operational-Strategic Functions (duty-orientation, sacrifice, risk-taking, foresight, mission continuity); and (4) Human-Social Dimension (ethical guidance, family alignment, socio-moral responsibility). These values collectively redefine key strategic concepts such as victory, legitimacy, and resilience. Practical Implications: The study highlights three implications:(1) sustainable crisis leadership requires embedding values throughout strategic and operational processes;(2) leaders must navigate tensions between operational demands and ideological commitments;(3) value integration enhances societal cohesion, mobilization capacity, and intergenerational mission continuity. Originality/Value: By deriving a leadership model directly from firsthand wartime documents, this research introduces a culturally grounded, empirically informed framework. It challenges Western-centric leadership paradigms and positions values as a strategic advantage rather than purely moral attributes, contributing to leadership studies, crisis management, and Islamic management theory. | ||
