Abstract:
This study examines how administrative development impacts decision-making effectiveness in Libya’s industrial sector, with managerial skills as a mediator. Drawing on organizational learning theory, it addresses under-researched administrative reforms in Arab economies through a cross-sectional analysis of 205 professionals in Libya’s cement/construction industries. Structural equation modeling reveals administrative development—particularly incentive systems, training programs, and procedural simplification—enhances decision-making via direct and mediated effects (managerial competencies). Incentive systems showed the strongest influence, while managerial skills proved critical for translating administrative inputs into outcomes. The findings provide an empirical framework for post-conflict settings, advocating integrated administrative-leadership reforms to optimize industrial performance.
