معوقات التخطيط الاستراتيجي في الجامعات السعودية

Abstract EN

The purpose of this study is to identify the obstacles and difficulties of strategic planning in Saudi universities.

It determines the level of agreement/disagreement of administrative leadership with respect to those identified obstacles.

A research study is conducted on a model, consisting of 30 items that represent the major obstacles to strategic planning identified by previous research studies.

Data is collected from Saudi Universities that were established prior to the year 2000.

The sample size is (285) subjects who represent university presidents, university vice presidents, deans, and general managers.

Results suggest many obstacles that hinder strategic planning in Saudi universities.

However, effects of these obstacles differ from one university to the other.

In addition, both administrative and human obstacles are considered more important than financial obstacles.

The study recommends some solutions to Saudi universities in order to overcome those obstacles
