Abstract

The objective of the study is to build a scale for measuring administrative leadership skills for the performance of sports and youth bodies and institutions in Iraq, as well as to introduce new domains to the scale. The problem addressed in the study lies in the absence or scarcity of scales designed in leadership skills, especially for the Olympic Committee or central federations. The researchers used a descriptive methodology with survey research methods. The research sample consisted of leaders and administrators of sports and youth bodies and institutions, including representatives of the Iraqi National Olympic Committee, central federations, some first-class and premier sports clubs, as well as youth and sports directorates in the provinces, totaling 398 individuals. They employed statistical methods such as the mean, standard deviation, simple correlation coefficient, independent samples t-test, and factor analysis using the Hotelling-Principal Components method. They concluded that decision-making skill is the foundation of the entire administrative process and what distinguishes a leader from others in leading the body and the institution when their decisions are scientific and well-thought-out. Additionally, it is a skill that is inherent in the daily work details of the leader. and this achieves one of the sustainable development goals of the United Nations in Iraq which is (Quality Education). They recommended that this scale could be used by the Ministry of Youth and Sports, as well as the Iraqi National Olympic Committee, to evaluate the performance level of the leadership of sports and youth bodies and institutions in Iraq. This scale could also be beneficial in selecting leaders to work in the sports and youth field, and there is potential for further refinement of the scale by researchers.
