Abstract
This study aims to analyse the way leadership and digital
technology usage affect the faculty members’ research performance in surviving
higher education sustainability during the COVID-19 pandemic. A breakthrough
innovation is needed to design a fast-track online work management system. Hence,
it requires a loyal contribution from all the faculty members to support this
system. This quantitative study conducted in Malaysia and Indonesia, included
260 faculty members from various fields of studies. Using the online
questionnaire, it shows that leadership and technology usage plays an important
role to maintain faculty members’ research performance during the pandemic.
However, it has a slight difference in result between Malaysia and Indonesia in
terms of the portion of leadership and digital technology that affected the
research performance. The higher education leaders play a stronger role in
affecting Malaysian faculty members’ research performance, while Indonesian
faculty members are influenced more by digital technology usage than by their
leaders. Each of them has a significant implication in designing the effective
institution policies in optimizing faculty members’ research performance.
