Abstract

The new leadership role in competitive globalization focuses on developing and integrating entrepreneurial activity into existing organizational systems. However, there is a lack of research into how entrepreneurial leadership can influence organizational agility in the telecommunications sector in Kurdistan Iraq. The aim of this research is to find out the impact of entrepreneurial leadership on organizational agility, data collected through a quantitative methodology research design from (143) managers in an Asia cell company in Sulemani City, Iraq. using SPSS, V.21. The correlation results of the research showed a direct relationship between entrepreneurial leadership and organizational agility. In addition, entrepreneurial leadership has a decisive influence on the mobility of the organization. The regression results of the research show the importance of entrepreneurial leadership in increasing organizational agility. Finally, this research suggests that future research may explore the concept in a different context.

الملخص

يركز الدور القيادي الجديد في العولمة التنافسية على تطوير ودمج الانشطة التنظيمية في النظم التنظيمية القائمة. مع ذلك هناك نقص في الأبحاث حول كيف يمكن للقيادة الريادية أن تؤثر على الرشاقة التنظيمية في قطاع الاتصالات في كردستان العراق. هدف هذا البحث هو معرفة تأثير القيادة الريادية على الرشاقة التنظيمية. حيث تم جمع البيانات من (١٤٣) مدير في شركة اسيا سيل في مدينة السليمانية في كردستان العراق وتم اتباع المنهجية الكمية في عملية تحليل البيانات باستخدام برنامج SPSS,V.21 الإحصائي. وأظهرت نتائج الارتباط للدراسة بوجود علاقة مباشرة بين القيادة الريادية والرشاقة التنظيمية. بالإضافة إلى ذلك فإن القيادة الريادية لها تأثير حاسم على الرشاقة التنظيمية. حيث تظهر نتائج الانحدار للدراسة بمدى أهمية القيادة الريادية في تعزيز الرشاقة التنظيمية. وأخيرًا تقترح هذه الدراسة أن تقوم البحوث المستقبلية باستكشاف هذا المفهوم في سياقات مختلفة.

الكلمات المفتاحية: الريادة، القيادة الريادية، الرشاقة التنظيمية، شركة اسيا سيل.
