The role of consultative leadership on administrative development

Abstract

Consultative leadership is a democratic style that deliberately incorporates employees into organizational management and decision-making to increase employees’ feelings of ownership and align their objectives with company objectives. As a result, during their everyday tasks, leaders constantly utilize “consultation management” for their staff. As examples, consider how to coordinate reports, communicate key ideas, and use a variety of flexible promotion strategies. This study investigates the role of consultive leadership on administrative development in developing countries. For this reason, this study has applied a questionnaire to take the respondents’ opinions in the Iraqi ministry of interior affairs. Using the Likert scale has provided quantitative value for the qualitative study. For this reason, questionnaires were provided, and this study’s results showed a positive correlation between consultative leadership and administrative development. As a result, the organization’s leader has more chances to administer the organization successfully than a manager or an unofficial leader who lacks status power.
