Abstract: | This study explores the impact of hierarchical leadership on high-quality production within the Egyptian export market. Leadership styles are deeply influenced by cultural norms and values, critically shaping organizational outcomes in Egypt, where Western leadership models may not directly apply. Through interviews with leaders of Egyptian companies engaged in international trade, this research examines how hierarchical leadership affects employee motivation, production efficiency, and overall organizational success. The findings suggest that while hierarchical leadership is prevalent, a blend of intrinsic and extrinsic motivators, along with a strong sense of community, are all essential attributes for maintaining high standards in production. Additionally, the study highlights the unique challenges and strategies associated with adapting leadership styles in Egypt to meet the high-quality demands of the global market. Through multiple interviews with leaders, the research contributes to a deeper understanding of leadership in Eastern contexts, offering practical recommendations for enhancing management practices in Egypt and similar cultural environments. |
