Collaborative leadership for quality assurance : a case study on developing a strategic quality manual in higher education
Karin Širec, Maja Rožman, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: Higher education institutions face growing pressure to demonstrate excellence and strategic alignment in quality assurance, particularly to meet international accreditation standards. This paper presents a case study of a business faculty that undertook a leadership-driven initiative to develop a comprehensive Quality Manual aimed at continuous improvement and accreditation readiness. The project was structured as a multi-phase, collaborative effort involving broad stakeholder engagement, benchmarking of best practices, and alignment with international accreditation frameworks and the European Standards and Guidelines (ESG), as well as relevant national quality assurance requirements. The resulting Quality Manual provides a unified framework for quality assurance (QA) across all key areas—governance, academic programmes, research, student support, partnerships—linking institutional strategy to daily processes. Key outcomes of the case include clarified roles and procedures, integrated feedback loops, and enhanced readiness for accreditation. The development process highlighted the critical role of educational leadership in fostering a quality culture; by engaging faculty, staff, students, and external partners, the leadership built shared ownership of QA goals. The study is guided by two research questions: (1) How can collaborative and distributed leadership support the development of a strategically aligned Quality Manual at the faculty level? (2) How does the process of designing and implementing a Quality Manual contribute to strengthening internal QA and fostering a quality culture? The study discusses challenges and lessons learned in leading such change, emphasising the importance of stakeholder collaboration, strategic alignment, and change management. The findings contribute theoretically by illustrating how faculty-level leadership operationalizes QA frameworks into concrete institutional tools, and practically by offering a structured model for developing a strategic Quality Manual in higher education.

A systems perspective on sustainable leadership and innovation capability : building organizational resilience in a high-tech company
Nenad Vladić, Damjan Maletič, Matjaž Maletič, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: While previous studies have examined sustainable leadership and innovation separately, limited attention has focused on their systemic interconnection. Building on established frameworks, this study adopts a systems perspective to explain how sustainability-oriented leadership mechanisms shape innovation capability across strategic, organizational, and functional levels. Drawing on a single-case study of an information-rich high-tech company, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and internal documentation to examine leadership practices and organizational enablers that foster innovation. The findings show that sustainable leadership strengthens innovation capability by embedding sustainability values into organizational routines, aligning strategic intent with daily learning, and empowering employees to experiment, collaborate, and share knowledge continuously. These feedback-driven processes connect strategic intent with operational learning, enabling organizations to adapt and renew. The study introduces the Systems Framework for Sustainable Innovation Capability (SFSIC), which explains how leadership, culture, and learning interact as interdependent components of innovation capability and organizational resilience. By framing innovation capability as a dynamic, feedback-driven process rather than a fixed set of determinants, the study advances theory by specifying how sustainability-oriented leadership strengthens adaptive capacity within innovation ecosystems. The study offers guidance for building innovation capability and resilience through aligned leadership practices, enabling structures, and feedback-based learning systems.

Health-promoting leadership and leadersʹ listening skills have an impact on the employeesʹ job satisfaction and turnover intention
Anita Dunkl, Borut Milfelner, Simona Šarotar Žižek, Paul Jiménez, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: The topic of health-promoting leadership has often been investigated on its impact on health outcomes. However, it is still unclear if healthpromoting leadership has an impact on other well-being parameters at work besides health. Another leadership behavior, the leaders’ listening skills, can benefit well-being parameters at the workplace, such as job satisfaction, which in turn lowers turnover intention. In the present study, we investigate the relationship between health-promoting leadership, the leaders’ listening skills, job satisfaction, and turnover intention to get a clearer picture about the effects of different leadership behaviors on the employees’ well-being. The results of an online-study with 354 Austrian and Slovenian workers showed that both types of leadership behaviors had a direct effect on the employees’ job satisfaction and an indirect effect on turnover intention through job satisfaction. Listening was found to have a stronger direct impact on job satisfaction. The findings indicate that both leadership behaviors are able to support well-being at the workplace.

Leadership styles and generational differences in manufacturing and service organizations
Nadia Molek, Mirko Markič, Dušan Janežič, Magda Lužar, Franc Brcar, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: Background and purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine generational differences and leadership style preferences in service and manufacturing organizations in south-eastern (SE) Slovenia. The focus was on preferred leadership approaches and generational differences. Methods: Quantitative research was conducted using the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) to collect data on a sample of 208 employees in manufacturing and service organizations in SE Slovenia. The questionnaire was distributed online and responses were analysed using Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Shapiro-Wilk test, and the Kruskal Wallis test. Results: The results showed that the transformational leadership style was most preferred by the respondents, followed by the transactional and the least preferred was the laissez-faire style. A significant generational difference was found in the preference for the transactional leadership style, with Baby Boomers showing the highest preference and Generation Z the lowest. Conclusion: Although the study was limited to SE Slovenia and generalizability is limited, the results suggest that organizations should provide leadership training adapted to generational preferences to promote effective leadership. Future research should consider longitudinal and sector-specific studies, as well as the inclusion of variables such as cultural background and organizational culture.

Narcissistic leadership and project success : the role of knowledge sharing and collectivism in IT firms
Hina Tahir, Osman Sadiq Paracha, Syed Shafqat Mukarram, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: Purpose: In the quest of exploring specific developments in contemporary management research, this study highlights the prevalence of narcissistic leadership in IT firms. We employed the upper-echelon framework to analyze the impact of narcissistic leadership on project success. This study considered the dark side of a leader’s narcissism while analyzing how narcissistic leadership affects a project’s success through knowledge sharing and collectivism. Design/methodology/approach: Structural equation modeling is employed to investigate this proposition. Using convenience sampling, approximately 370 questionnaires were dispensed out of which 272 completed questionnaires were utilized for performing the analysis of IT firms. Findings: Narcissistic leadership affects project’s success through knowledge sharing and collectivism. The results indicate that narcissistic leadership negatively predicts project success. Moreover, knowledge sharing fully mediated the relationship between narcissistic leadership and project success. Whereas, collectivism moderates the relationship between knowledge-sharing and narcissistic leadership. Originality: Our assumptions are based on the upper-echelon theory indicating that narcissistic leadership affects project success through knowledge-sharing and collectivism. This has been proved by the empirical analysis carried out in Pakistan’s IT sector.

Ana Nešić Tomašević, Aleksandra Sitarevič, Mirko Marković, Olga Ivetić, Maja Meško, Fayyaz Hussain Qureshi, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: Background: The information age has ushered in a novel economic model known as the information economy, challenging traditional bureaucratic mechanisms that were primarily seen as tools to mitigate uncertainty. Within this context, complex leadership emerges as a paradigm that thrives on systemic interactions and intricate dynamics. Here, the onus lies on establishing the framework and conditions that empower the adaptive essence of leadership to flourish. Purpose: The aim of this research is to establish a framework for optimal leadership management, uncovering previously unexplored factors shaping employee work behavior. By identifying and defining key components within management mechanisms that greatly enhance employee performance, the objective is to cultivate rooted and effective management practices. Study design/methodology/approach: The research involved 480 respondents from diverse sociodemographic backgrounds and companies. Complexity leadership was assessed using the Complexity Leadership Scale, measuring Generative and Administrative leadership. Employee cooperation was evaluated with the Scala Supportive and Non-Controlling Supervision. Statistical methods included multiple regression, Pearson correlation, t-tests, and MANOVA. Findings/conclusions: The evaluation shows that both Generative and Administrative leadership are moderately expressed. Generative leadership positively correlates with Supportive and Non-Controlling Supervision, achieving statistically significant results. In contrast, Administrative leadership has negative correlations with these supervisory styles. Limitations/future research: The limitations of the research are of a methodological nature and refer to the sample of employees, according to demographic characteristics and company characteristics. Also, ONLINE FIRST 4 Tomašević et al. Addressing Socio-Economic Drivers of Management Style Evolution: Embracing Complexity Leadership Solutions STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT, Vol. xx (20xx), No. x, pp. 0xx-0xx questionnaires based on self-assessment most often imply a certain number of socially desirable answers. Future research should include a larger sample to improve external validity and ensure that the empirical evidence obtained is variable across a range of organizational settings.

Dynamic capabilities and environmental performance of high-tech SMEs in Pakistan – the role of eco-innovation and female executives
Rameen Niamat, Fayyaz Hussain Qureshi, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: Background/Purpose: This study examines the relationship between dynamic capabilities (DCs) and environmental performance (EP) in high-tech SMEs in Pakistan, focusing on the key dimensions of sensing, seizing, and reconfiguration. Additionally, it explores the mediating role of environmental innovation (EI) and the moderating effect of female leadership on this relationship. Methods: A quantitative research approach was employed, using a structured questionnaire distributed among male and female Chief Executive Officers (CEOs), senior management personnel, and executives in high-tech SMEs. Data were analysed using structural equation modelling (SEM) to assess the relationships between DCs, environmental innovation, and environmental performance. Results: The findings indicate that seizing capabilities significantly enhances environmental performance, with a one-point increase leading to a 0.282-point improvement. Similarly, reconfiguration contributes positively, with a one-point increase resulting in a 0.227-point improvement. Both process innovation (path coefficient = 0.384, p = 0.001) and product innovation (path coefficient = 0.157, p = 0.043) positively influence environmental performance. However, female leadership did not exhibit a significant direct effect on environmental performance. Notably, female moderators negatively impacted the relationship between process innovation and environmental performance (-0.328), suggesting that in lower hierarchical positions, female inclusion may reduce the effectiveness of process innovation in achieving sustainability goals. Conclusions: The study provides empirical evidence on the role of dynamic capabilities and environmental innovation in enhancing sustainability in high-tech SMEs. It highlights the need for firms to strengthen their seizing and reconfiguration capabilities to improve environmental performance. Additionally, eco-innovation should be encouraged, and gender diversity in leadership should be strategically considered when designing innovation and sustainability strategies. These findings offer valuable insights for policymakers and industry practitioners aiming to foster sustainable business practices in high-tech SMEs in Pakistan.
