This study examines the implementation of classroom observation management as a strategy to enhance teacher performance at SMAN 3 Banyuasin III. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. Findings indicate that systematic, transparent, and collaborative classroom observations conducted in planning, implementation, and follow-up stages strengthen pedagogical competence, professional responsibility, and teaching effectiveness. Clear planning reduces teacher anxiety and improves lesson readiness, while dialogic implementation provides constructive feedback. Follow-up through reflective meetings, group discussions, and internal training fosters professional development and a collaborative culture. School principals play a key role in ensuring reflective, participatory, and sustainable supervision. The study concludes that effective classroom observation management serves not only as an administrative evaluation tool but also as a professional development instrument, enhancing teacher motivation, confidence, and instructional innovation, contributing both theoretically and practically to humanistic, collaborative, and quality-focused academic supervision.
