Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between knowledge-oriented leadership and organizational performance in the tourism industry. A quantitative research methodology was employed, involving the collection of data through structured 200 questionnaires distributed to tourism managers. The findings indicate a positive and significant correlation between the two constructs. Knowledge-oriented leaders, who foster innovation, creativity, and employee engagement, are more likely to improve organizational performance. These findings highlight the importance of cultivating knowledge-oriented leadership in the tourism industry to adapt to changing market conditions, develop innovative offerings, and enhance overall organizational effectiveness.
