Description
Summary:Women play a crucial leadership role in higher education institutions by implementing knowledge management practices; however, there is a lack of scientific studies that mainly investigate this role. Therefore, in order to fill this scientific studies gap, a purposive sampling technique focusing on women managers and a survey were employed to collect data from 201 women working in managerial positions in Lebanese and Syrian higher education institutions. PLS structural equational modeling technique and independent sample t-test were used to analyze the influence of the knowledge management cycle on sustainability in higher education institutions through women managers’ perspectives. The findings revealed a positive and significant relationship among the analyzed knowledge management processes in the study, and some insignificant differences were detected in the independent sample t-test between the Lebanese and Syrian higher education institutions. The results of this study are valuable for strategic and knowledge management practitioners concerned with women’s leadership and implementation of knowledge management practices in higher education institutions for sustainability.
