Integration between Administrative Development and Quality of Life: Toward a Sustainable and Productive Work Environment. An Analytical Study in the College of Administration and Economics, University of Mosul

Abstract: The topic of administrative development has become one of the important topics pursued by any goal-oriented administrative institution. Visions in this area now occupy managers’ minds as they seek to introduce developmental curricula and programs to keep pace with work processes within the institution. The study and analysis of the factors contributing to administrative development and the investigation of the importance of the place of administrative development within the organizational structure, as well as the analysis of scientific standards based on modern concepts and their comparison with institutional reality, all converge to produce the most important findings, conclusions, and practical recommendations for the educational institution under study. Based on the above, the researchers proposed a hypothetical algorithmic model that examines the factors, programs, standards used, and the obstacles to implementation that impede the administrative development process in educational institutions. This model tests a hypothesis using statistical methods on data collected via a designed and scientifically refined checklist reviewed by a panel of eminent academics who played a key role in research in this field, to produce the most important conclusions and fruitful recommendations for the educational institution under study.
