  • Distributed leadership and administrative processes as determinants of public universities’ effectiveness
    David Jimoh Kayode, Suraiya Rathankoomar Naicker
    Cypriot Journal of Educational Sciences, 2021
    The quality of students who graduated from Nigerian universities and the role played by universities in the growth of society is a significant concern to every stakeholder. This study examined the impact of distributed leadership on the effectiveness of public universities and the mediating role of the quality administrative process. A correlational survey research design was adopted. A total of 450 lecturers were sampled and were given questionnaire of which 346 questionnaire were returned and, only 305 questionnaires were usable after the data cleaning. The results of the analysis showed that distributed leadership does not directly connect to institutional effectiveness. Furthermore, it is evident that administrative process intervenes in the correlation between distributed leadership and public university effectiveness. The findings imply that the various leaders at the unit level, departmental, faculty, and university-wide must ensure quality administrative processes to bring about the desired University system in the country.

  • The mediating role of a quality academic process on the relationship between distributed leadership and the effectiveness of public universities in Nigeria

    Kasetsart Journal of Social Sciences, 2019
    The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between distributed leadership, a quality academic process, and institutional effectiveness as well as the mediating role of the quality academic process on the relationship between distributed leadership and institutional effectiveness in public universities in Nigeria. The study built on the research conducted by Calvo-Moral, Leal and Roldan in 2006 on a quality educational process based on a European quality management model. A survey of 346 lecturers from public universities in Nigeria was used to validate this model. The data collected were analyzed using the Smartpls software. The results confirmed that the three main constructs for this study were second order. It was also evident that there was a positive significant relationship between distributed leadership, the quality academic process and institutional effectiveness. The findings also revealed that distributed leadership practices can enhance the effectiveness of public universities through a quality academic process. This study was limited to public universities in Nigeria and as such further research could be carried out to involve private universities. Based on the outcomes of this study, to enhance university effectiveness, university leaders should be proactive in undertaking measures that will bring about a quality academic process.
