EasyChair Preprint no. 13509

Abstract

The role of leadership in driving national development is crucial for the progress and prosperity of a nation. Effective leadership provides a vision, direction, and strategy for achieving sustainable development goals. This abstract explores how leadership influences national development by examining key aspects such as vision, decision-making, policy implementation, collaboration, accountability, innovation, and inspiration.

Leadership begins with setting a clear direction and articulating a compelling vision that inspires citizens to actively participate in the development process. Leaders must make informed and effective decisions that balance short-term needs with long-term objectives, seeking input from experts and stakeholders to ensure comprehensive perspectives.

Implementing policies that translate vision and goals into actionable strategies is another critical role of leadership. Leaders mobilize resources, coordinate efforts, and adapt strategies to overcome challenges and achieve desired outcomes.

Effective leadership also involves fostering collaboration among various sectors and stakeholders. Building partnerships and alliances enables the pooling of resources, expertise, and collective intelligence, leading to more impactful and sustainable development initiatives.
