This study aims to analyze the effect of Spiritual Leadership, Work Values, Work Engagement, and Job Satisfaction on Organizational Commitment and Organizational Citizenship Behaviour among public elementary school teachers in Jakarta. Using a quantitative approach, this study involved public elementary school teachers with Civil Servant and Government Employee with Work Agreement status as respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using structural equation modeling. The findings show that Work Values positively influence Job Satisfaction and Work Engagement, while Job Satisfaction positively influences Work Engagement. However, Work Engagement and Job Satisfaction do not directly influence Organizational Citizenship Behaviour. Spiritual Leadership positively influences Organizational Commitment but does not directly influence Organizational Citizenship Behaviour. Furthermore, Organizational Commitment positively influences Organizational Citizenship Behaviour and mediates the relationship between Spiritual Leadership and Organizational Citizenship Behaviour. These findings indicate that Organizational Commitment plays an important role in translating spiritual leadership into teachers' organizational citizenship behaviour. The study highlights the importance of strengthening organizational commitment and spiritual leadership among school principals as managerial strategies to encourage positive work behaviour and organizational citizenship among public elementary school teachers in Jakarta
