The Level of Inclusive Leadership Practice in Jordanian Higher Education Institutions and its Relationship to the Organizational Excellence of their Employees

Abstract

This study investigates the extent of inclusive leadership practices in Jordanian higher education institutions and their relationship to organizational excellence. To accomplish this goal, a stratified random sample of 480 academic and administrative personnel from Jordanian public universities was chosen. Using a descriptive correlational survey approach, a verified and trustworthy questionnaire was distributed to participants. The findings revealed that both the extent of inclusive leadership practices and the level of organizational excellence were rated as modest. Furthermore, the findings revealed a significant positive relationship between the aspects of inclusive leadership and organizational performance. In light of these findings, the study suggests that institutionalizing inclusive leadership techniques is a critical strategy for improving and sustaining organizational excellence inside institutions.
