The role of responsible leadership dimensions in enhancing organizational performance: A survey study of a number of secondary schools in Salah al-Din Governorate

Abstract

The current research addresses the problem of schools that suffer from their inability to achieve organizational performance due to weak school management. This is expressed through a number of intellectual and practical questions, including the role of responsible leadership in educational institutions and its impact on developing organizational performance. The research field is represented by secondary schools (both public and private), and the research community is represented by all teaching staff in secondary education (school principals and their assistants), numbering (300) individuals) in Salah al-Din Governorate. A random sample of (177) individuals was selected from the teaching staff in the surveyed schools. The statistical package (SPSS: 21) was used to process the data. The descriptive analytical approach was employed, relying on a set of methods and tools necessary to collect data and information from the research sample, the most important of which was the questionnaire as the primary tool for collecting data and information, in addition to the method of field observation through visits and interviews conducted by the researchers in the surveyed schools. The research reached a number of conclusions, the most important of which are: the existence of a positive, significant impact of collectively responsible leadership on collective organizational performance in the schools studied, due to the rapid changes and developments in the field of education, including administrative procedures, educational processes, and student requirements.
