Meskipun pengembangan keterampilan kepemimpinan melalui kegiatan ekstrakurikuler dan seluruh kegiatan yang ada di pondok pesantren sangat bermanfaat, namun penilaian/pengukuran pengembangan keterampilan kepemimpinan masih relatif kurang. Santri pondok pesantren Darunnajah Cipining Bogor dijadikan target penelitian untuk mendapatkan data yang berkaitan dengan pengembangan keterampilan kepemimpinan santri. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan partisipasi dalam kegiatan ekstrakurikuler dengan pencapaian keterampilan kepemimpinan yang dipersepsikan santri. Peneliti menyimpulkan tiga hal: Pertama, sebagian besar responden merasakan manfaat selama mereka aktif berpartisipasi dalam kegiatan ekstrakurikuler di pondok pesantren. Kedua, penelitian ini memperlihatkan bahwa jenis kelamin, usia, suku, dan latar belakang lingkungan santri tidak berhubungan secara signifikan dengan pencapaian keterampilan kepemimpinan. Ketiga, penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa partisipasi santri dalam kegiatan ekstrakurikuler di pondok pesantren berhubungan positif dan signifikan dengan pencapaian keterampilan kepemimpinan.
