Abstract

This research aims to analyze the role of customer relationship management (CRM) quality in reducing administrative work stress among employees at Warith Al-Anbiya University (PBUH). This was achieved through a field study that sought to determine the extent to which trust and commitment, two of the most prominent components of CRM quality, contribute to addressing the levels of work stress experienced by university employees. Work stress was measured according to four main dimensions: administrative workload, nature of administrative work, role ambiguity, and role conflict. The study employed a descriptive-analytical approach. Data was collected through a questionnaire distributed to employees in administrative departments, the Human Resources Division, the Finance Department, and the university's colleges. A total of 98 questionnaires were distributed, of which 88 were returned and deemed valid for statistical analysis, representing a response rate of 89.8%, which reflects a good level of engagement with the research instruments. The statistical analysis revealed a significant impact of customer relationship management (CRM) quality on reducing administrative work stress. The results showed that trust and commitment clearly contribute to lowering ambiguity and role conflict, as well as reducing the workload resulting from daily organizational interactions. The findings also confirmed that improving CRM quality within the university environment enhances the effectiveness of administrative procedures and contributes to a more stable and supportive work environment for employees. The study recommends that the university adopt sustainable strategies to promote trust and commitment within its CRM system, given its direct impact on improving performance efficiency and reducing stress, thereby enhancing the quality of services provided to both students and visitors.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of good digital governance in enhancing strategic sovereignty in Iraqi private universities by revealing the nature of the relationship and impact between the two variables in light of the accelerating digital transformation in the higher education sector. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach, and data were collected using an electronic questionnaire distributed to a sample of professors from Iraqi private universities. The number of valid responses for analysis was 154. Good digital governance was measured through five main dimensions: digital accountability, digital transparency, fairness and equity, digital participation, and service efficiency. Strategic sovereignty was measured through a set of indicators related to decision independence and the institutional capacity to plan and control information resources. The results of the statistical analysis showed a strong, statistically significant positive correlation between good digital governance and strategic sovereignty, with a correlation coefficient (R = 0.72) at a significance level of (p < 0.001), indicating the strength of the relationship between the two variables. The regression analysis revealed that the dimensions of good digital governance collectively explain approximately 52% of the changes in strategic sovereignty (R² = 0.52), with a statistically significant overall standardized effect size (β = 0.68). At the dimension level, the results showed that digital transparency, digital accountability, and service efficiency were the most influential dimensions in enhancing strategic sovereignty, followed by digital participation and fairness and equity. This underscores the pivotal role of these practices in supporting the independence of strategic decision-making and strengthening institutional capacity to respond to challenges.

Abstract

This study aimed to demonstrate the impact of entrepreneurial strategic leadership on achieving institutional excellence through a field study at Al-Husayniya General Hospital. The study stemmed from the problem of some institutions' weak adoption of modern leadership styles that combine strategic vision, innovation, and initiative, which may negatively affect their institutional performance and ability to achieve sustainable excellence. The study employed a descriptive-analytical approach, and a questionnaire was designed as the primary data collection tool. (132) questionnaires were distributed to a sample of hospital administrators, department heads, and unit managers, and (102) questionnaires were returned, representing a response rate of (77%). Of these, (89) questionnaires were deemed valid for statistical analysis. The study concluded that there is a statistically significant correlation between entrepreneurial strategic leadership and institutional excellence. Furthermore, the results showed a significant positive impact of entrepreneurial strategic leadership, in its various dimensions, on achieving institutional excellence. The results confirmed that the adoption of a clear strategic vision by administrative leaders, the promotion of a culture of innovation, and the encouragement of initiative and calculated risk-taking effectively contribute to improving institutional performance, raising the quality of services, and enhancing the institution's competitiveness. The study recommended the necessity of strengthening entrepreneurial strategic leadership practices within healthcare institutions by developing the skills of administrative leaders, disseminating a culture of innovation, and adopting organizational policies that support institutional excellence, thereby contributing to achieving sustainability and organizational superiority.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the role of green digital technologies in promoting sustainable innovation within organizations, focusing on how these technologies can be applied to improve the environmental and production processes of modern industrial technology companies. Therefore, the study gains importance in light of global trends toward promoting environmental sustainability in various industries and the application of green digital technologies as a tool to drive sustainable innovation. These technologies contribute to reducing environmental impact and achieving organizations' strategic objectives by improving efficiency and productivity. The study also relied on a descriptive analytical approach, where data was collected by distributing questionnaires to a sample of employees at Al-Joud Modern Industrial Technology Company, including technical and administrative departments. Statistical analysis was used to extract conclusions related to the impact of green digital technologies on sustainable innovation.

The study was implemented at Al-Joud Modern Industrial Technology Company, where 75 questionnaires were distributed to employees across various administrative and technical departments, and 60 valid questionnaires were retrieved for statistical analysis. While the study's most important conclusions are that green digital technologies have significantly contributed to improving environmental efficiency and productivity at Al-Joud Company, sustainable innovation has also become an essential part of the company's strategy to improve its operations and reduce resource consumption.

The study's most important recommendations are the need for companies to invest in green digital technologies to promote sustainable innovation and achieve their environmental and economic goals. This also leads to strengthening employee training and awareness programs on the importance of green digitalization and its role in improving sustainability.
