Utilizing a quantitative descriptive research design and convenience sampling of 119 employees, the study examined the relationship between inclusive leadership dimensions (fair treatment, openness, understanding in communication, and integration into the unit) and employee resilience. The findings reveal a statistically significant positive correlation and influence of inclusive leadership on employee resilience, accounting for 18.6% of its variability. Furthermore, the study found significant differences in employee resilience across age groups. The research underscores the critical role of inclusive leadership in fostering a resilient workforce capable of navigating organizational challenges and promoting overall well-being.
