Effect of transformational leadership and organisational culture on the managerial effectiveness in Saudi Arabia: Empirical study

Abstract

The primary aim of the present study is to examine the impact of transformational leadership and organizational culture on the managerial effectiveness of Saudi ministries. The study employed a questionnaire for data collection from 23 government ministries, with the sample size consisting of 295 culled from the initial distribution of 357. The study made use of the Partial Least Squares (PLS) structural equation modeling for data analysis. More importantly, the study results supported the first hypothesis (H1) proposing that a positive and significant relationship exists between transformational leadership and managerial effectiveness among Saudi ministries. Finally, this study provided some suggestions for future researchers at the end of the study.
