Abstract
The task of a leader in special education is not easy and is not limited to management alone. It involves the nature of love and concern for its citizens. As we all know, the task as a special education teacher does not stop at the school, but they will continue to be a reference for parents of students at all times. Teaching special education with its diverse and unique citizens requires the good cooperation from all parties involved, especially its leaders. A leader who always facilitates his members is able to make tasks easier to complete. This qualitative study aims to explore specific aspects in the self and leadership of
special education leaders related to facilitators. Interviews were conducted on 20 randomly selected special education teachers. The findings of the study reveals that, there are five characteristics that make a special education leader act as a facilitator, namely, guiding, mentoring, helping monitoring and giving directions. It is hoped that the findings of this study can provide a basic overview to the next researcher to conduct a further research.
