ملخص: ان اعتماد ادارة الجودة الشاملة من قبل مؤسسات التعليم في الوطن العربي سيؤثر بشكل ايجابي على اداء هذه المؤسسات وسيعمل على تطوير بنيتها الادارية وبالتالي الرفع من كفاءة الاداء الاكاديمي. على الرغم من هذه الحقيقة، فان ثقافة ادارة الجودة الشاملة في مؤسسات التعليم العالي العربية تكاد تكون غائبة، ولا تحظى بالاحترام المطلوب في العقلية الادارية المسؤولة عن تنظيم هذه المؤسسات. ان عدم تبني نظام ادارة الجودة الشاملة في مؤسسات التعليم العالي ادى الى ضعف مخرجات التعليم العالي، وادى الى عدم قدرة هذه المؤسسات على مواكبة التطورات المتسارعة في انظمة التعليم العالي حول العالم.

Consequently, Salim faces a short timeline for analyzing information to present his plan to the group if he is to gain their support and funding.

ملخص: The leadership behaviors of people are likely to be partially shaped bytheir cultural contexts. For example, it is expected that people from high-contextcultures are likely to be more focused on relationships. To explore the behavioraltendencies of working adults in Oman, since there is a paucity of information on thispopulation, this paper compares the leadership perception of 129 governmentemployees based on their age and gender. It appears that Omanis have similar scoreson their task and relationship orientations. Furthermore, gender and age did notproduce any statistically significant differences. Practical suggestions for expatriatesand implications are presented.
