The Impact of Strategic Leadership on Crisis Management Stages A Field Study of Several Industrial Companies Registered in the Iraq Stock Exchange
Abstract
This field study examines the critical role of strategic leadership in influencing the various stages of crisis management within the industrial companies listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange. In an increasingly volatile and uncertain business environment, effective crisis management is essential for the survival and growth of an organization. Strategic leadership, characterized by prudent decision-making, proactive planning, and rapid adaptation, plays a pivotal role in guiding companies through crises and ensuring their resilience.
The main objectives of this research are to assess the impact of strategic leadership on crisis identification, preparedness, response and recovery, and to analyze the strategies used by industrial companies in Iraq to mitigate and deal with crises successfully. To achieve these goals, a multi-method approach was adopted, which includes both quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis methods.
