Charismatic leadership is a leadership style in which a leader gains followers and influences through personal charm, charisma, and trust. Leaders who are to be born in Malaysia need charisma to endure, and it is not enough with knowledge alone. Charismatic leadership programs require specific assessment for improvement purposes. Unfortunately, discussions about the capacity and potential of assessment models for charismatic leadership programs are very limited, especially involving expert-based approaches. Therefore, this concept paper aims to discuss the capacity for assessing charismatic leadership programs based on two models in expert-based assessment: Eisner’s Educational Connoisseurship and Criticism Perspective and Accreditation Group Model. The Connoisseurship Model lists four steps including aspects of (a) analysis/explanation, (b) interpretation, (c) evaluation, and (d) identifying themes. For the Accreditation Model, there are five steps: (a) preparation of reports by the institution, (b) site visits by expert panels, (c) preparation of reports by expert panels, (d) review by the accrediting body, and (e) accreditation. The implications of this concept paper are to develop the usability of expert-based assessment models in the context of charismatic leadership in the local context. However, the limitations of this discussion include touching on the complexity differences of programs, recognition requirements, and target groups. Further research proposed from this concept could be to provide more systematic and explicit procedures for assessing charismatic leadership programs in Malaysia.
