Abstract

Achieving sustainable development requires a framework for decision-making, accountability, and management, which good governance provides. According to the World Bank's Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) report, Iraq has a performance gap of 34.1% in achieving the SDGs, which constitutes the applied problem of this study. Therefore, this study seeks to answer the main question: What is the role of good governance in achieving sustainable development through the mediation of Total Quality Management (TQM)? To achieve this, the study was conducted in the Iraqi Ministry of Electricity, and a sample of 100 department and division managers was selected. To collect data from this sample, a questionnaire was designed and distributed to 130 managers, of which 110 were returned, and 100 of these were deemed valid for analysis, representing the final sample size. Furthermore, the study employed quantitative analysis of the performance indicators adopted by the Iraqi Ministry of Electricity. The study utilized a deductive approach and a descriptive-analytical method in presenting and analyzing its data. The data was analyzed using SPSS software. The study concluded that the surveyed sample recognizes the importance of good governance indicators in achieving sustainable development. The analysis revealed that good governance has a significant and statistically significant impact on sustainable development, and that the influence of good governance indicators on sustainable development is growing. The study recommended that the Iraqi Ministry of Electricity adopt good governance indicators as a framework for decision-making, accountability, and efficiency to improve its performance towards achieving sustainable development.

Hawraa Z. H. Al-Tamimi, Haider N. H. Al-Miyali, Zahraa M. Lateef, Sumaya H. Nawaf

Pages: 102-114

PDF Full Text
Abstract

The study aims to evaluate the extent to which Iraqi banks have adopted digital transformation technologies and their willingness to shift from traditional methods to digital ones in order to achieve sustainable development goals. This is done through a quantitative analysis of a sample of banks using financial indicators. The results show that some banks have begun to pay attention to adopting digital technologies and considering sustainable development principles; however, these efforts are still in their early stages compared to foreign banks, while most banks continue to rely on traditional methods due to limited awareness and insufficient exposure to technological advancements. The study also indicates that there are limited attempts to adopt digital services such as mobile banking applications, account inquiries, and electronic payment systems. It emphasizes the need to invest in technological infrastructure, provide regulatory support, and enhance awareness among bank management and the community about the benefits of digital technologies, including cost reduction, increased efficiency, and improved service quality, thereby contributing to the achievement of sustainable development.

Trends of Foreign Direct Investment in Iraq in Light of Customs and Investment Reforms (2004–2024)

Reem Sh. Ketab, Ahmed T. Abd Algabar, Osama M. Saheb

Pages: 404-411

PDF Full Text
Abstract

This study aims to analyze the trends of foreign direct investment (FDI) in Iraq in light of customs and investment reforms during the period (2004–2025), as key determinants of improving the investment climate. The importance of the research lies in assessing the actual impact of customs and legislative reforms on the volume and quality of FDI inflows over a long time horizon. The research problem stems from the unclear ability of these reforms, despite their multiplicity, to generate sustainable investment transformation and diversify investment structures away from the oil sector. The study is based on the hypothesis that gradual customs transformation—particularly in its modernization and digitalization phase—positively influences FDI trends, although this impact remains partial due to persistent institutional and legislative challenges. The research adopts a quantitative analytical approach by examining trends in FDI inflows, customs revenues, and foreign trade volumes, and by comparing average indicators across three economic stages to measure the impact of customs and investment reforms on.

The role of digital leadership in reducing quiet quitting among employees at Al-Maram advertising company

Kareem Kadhim, Fadhil Ghazali, Mohammed Al-Garaawi

Pages: 58-69

PDF Full Text
Abstract

Theoretical Framework:

This study addressed the phenomenon of quiet quitting as a behavior manifested in employees performing only the minimum required work without showing additional commitment or initiative. This phenomenon is linked to causes such as burnout, lack of appreciation, and the absence of career advancement opportunities, making it a direct threat to employee engagement and organizational performance stability. The study aimed to explore the relationship between the dimensions of digital leadership and the dimensions of quiet quitting among the employees of Al-Maram Advertising Company.

Objective:

The study aimed to test the hypotheses regarding the relationship and impact between the dimensions of digital leadership — namely (digital leaders' competence, digital leaders' capability, organizational structure, and organizational strategy) — and the dimensions of quiet quitting — represented by (work overload, unfair compensation, poor work environment, and lack of career advancement opportunities). It also sought to analyze how digital leadership contributes to reducing levels of quiet quitting.

Methodology:

The study employed a quantitative analysis based on questionnaires distributed to employees of Al-Maram Advertising Company, with data collected from 48 employees in addition to interviews with senior and middle management. A structural model was designed to illustrate the direct effects of each digital leadership dimension on quiet quitting.

Findings:

The study revealed a statistically significant inverse relationship between all dimensions of digital leadership (competence, capability, structure, and strategy) and manifestations of quiet quitting among Al-Maram employees. Collectively, digital leadership accounted for 92% of the variance in quiet quitting (R² = 0.922), with digital leaders' competence having the strongest effect (β = -0.755). While the contributions of the other dimensions were smaller, they remained statistically significant. The results confirm that enhancing digital leadership practices effectively reduces the likelihood of employees’ psychological withdrawal.

Recommendations:

The study recommended that Al-Maram Advertising Company focus on improving digital leaders’ competence through specialized training programs in digital leadership, and activates clear strategies for leveraging technology in communication and motivation. It also advised restructuring the work environment to align with digital transformation requirements. Moreover, the study recommended developing clear promotion and recognition policies to ensure employee motivation and reduce the likelihood of quiet quitting, thereby enhancing employee engagement and sustaining the company’s high performance.
