Abstract

This study aims to explore the relationship between feminine leadership styles and the reduction of work pressures in educational environments. As organizations increasingly recognize the importance of a healthy work environment, understanding the role of leadership, especially feminine leadership, becomes crucial. This study seeks to identify specific leadership behaviors and styles exhibited by women in educational leadership positions that contribute to reducing work pressures among their subordinates. The study employs an analytical survey methodology to investigate how feminine leadership initiatives within organizations mitigate the negative effects of work pressures.


Keywords: Feminine Leadership; Work Pressures; Institutes and Colleges at Al-Furat Al-Awsat Technical University.
