dc.description.abstract | A study was undertaken to examine the current situation with managerial skills and their impact on leadership in the built environment. Study objectives include exploring the relationship between leadership and management skills in the built environment. Several studies have investigated the skills and expertise required by practitioners in the field of management. A variety of managerial skills, including leadership and project management, are required by most practitioners, according to the data collected. Among the skills identified by previous researchers as of national significance are management skills. Hence, the researcher conducted a literature review based on the above. Several scholars have suggested that leadership skills are affected by a leader's behaviour. Literature revealed that education plays an important role in leadership, as contractors with high academic achievements should emphasize technical aspects of project management. An analysis of the construction industry revealed leadership skills as essential to safety A qualitative data analysis was conducted in order to identify and analyze the necessary information in order to determine the relationship between competence levels and leadership effectiveness within the built environment sector in RSA. Qualitative research was intended to provide solutions to complex problems that are not easily solved | |
