Purpose: The research is aimed at testing the role of supportive leadership in addressing electronic management obstacles.
Theoretical framework: The conceptual frameworks of the two research variables were clarified, the independent variable, the supportive leadership in its dimensions (of empowering employee, inspirational motive, and treatment fairness), and the dependent variable, the electronic management obstacles (The organizational obstacles, The Technical obstacles, and The human obstacles).
Design/Methodology/Approach: The study sample is taken from education sector employees at Al-Furat Al-Awsat Technical University, to determine the differences among them at dimension level and study variables. 102 valid questionnaires were collected to distribute the statistical analysis after conducting an electronic survey questionnaire. Three study hypotheses were tested using a statistical program (SMART PLS) to determine whether there is a correlation and effect between the study variables.
Findings: The research found that there is a significant effect of supportive leadership on the obstacles of electronic administration. In other words, the more reliance on supportive leadership practices, the fewer obstacles electronic management will have.
Research, practical and social implication: Managements should take into account employee satisfaction by providing financial compensation (incentives)and maintaining their pays at satisfactory levels.
Originality / value: the study recommends the need to raise awareness about the supportive leadership and conduct future studies that can focus on concrete and feasible strategies that managements may use to address the electronic management of education sector employees in line with this study recommendations.
