The Impact of Leadership and Management Skills on Business growth in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Abstract
The role of leadership and management skills is not just a management style; It is a transformative force that propels small and medium-sized enterprises towards unprecedented success. In today's highly competitive business landscape, the role that positive leadership plays in promoting growth, innovation and employee well-being cannot be overemphasized. This article addresses the importance of positive leadership in enhancing performance and excellence within SMEs, and highlights its multifaceted effects and implementation strategies.
Positive leadership includes a set of practices aimed at creating an optimistic and empowering work environment that develops individual potential and collective success. Unlike traditional autocratic leadership models, positive leadership prioritizes collaboration, communication, and employee development. By fostering a culture of trust, transparency and positivity, positive leaders inspire their teams to achieve remarkable results even in difficult circumstances.
Positive leadership is about leveraging strengths, promoting flexibility, and promoting a growth mindset within the organizational framework. It involves empathic communication, active listening, and developing emotional intelligence among leaders and team members alike. Through encouragement, recognition, and support, positive leaders empower individuals to unleash their full potential, driving organizational growth and innovation.
