The Effectiveness of Leadership in Achieving Strategic Objectives: An Analytical Study on Governmental and Non-governmental Organizations in the KRI

Abstract

       This study examines the role of leadership effectiveness in achieving strategic objectives within organizations, with particular focus on governmental and non-governmental organizations in the Kurdistan Region. A quantitative research design was adopted to investigate the relationship between leadership and the attainment of strategic goals. Empirical data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed via Google Forms using a simple random sampling technique, yielding responses from 203 participants. The study employed Pearson correlation and regression analysis to test the proposed hypotheses regarding the effectiveness of leadership on strategic objective achievement. The findings reveal a statistically significant and moderate positive relationship between leadership and the achievement of strategic objectives. Furthermore, the regression results demonstrate that leadership significantly predicts the successful attainment of strategic objectives. These findings highlight the critical role of effective leadership in enhancing organizational capability to achieve strategic goals and provide empirical insights for improving leadership practices in both governmental and non-governmental organizations.
