This research seeks to describe how the values of local Minangkabau wisdom influence local school principals. These values are predicted to increase the visionary leadership capacity of a principal. This study uses a qualitative approach through a multi-case design to explore the phenomenon of visionary leadership behaviours in the values of principals with local Minangkabau wisdom found in junior high schools in Indonesia. Data were gathered through deep interviews, observation, and documentation. These were followed by the process of data analysis involving condensation, presentation, and conclusion. The results show that the values of Minangkabau's culture strongly characterise the principal's behaviour in building change through religious values, harmony, and togetherness. The integration of these three values is based on the vision of an organisation and in doing so strengthens the school culture. © 2020 Primrose Hall Publishing Group.
