Abstract:
Prior to 1970 the Saudi Government faced severe socioeconomic problems two of which were: (1) the contribution of the private sector to the Gross Domestic Product was low, and (2) the oil revenues were the main source of the national income. As the oil revenues rapidly increased between 1972 and 1981, the government used every means at its disposal to encourage the private sector. The goal was to diversify the sources of national income in order to decrease the dependency on oil revenues as the main source of national income. To achieve this the government has provided interest-free loans to

The unemployment situation is an important issue in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that has been increasing since 2011. One major contributor to its high rate is the fact students are unable to find work. The lack of their success can be attributed to their job search methods, many of which rely on social networks. This practice disadvantages graduates from abroad who have not developed their local networks as domestic graduates have. Because governmental policies have incentivized students to travel abroad, the government has a responsibility to address the growing problem of unemployment. One s

Abstract:
There is a general scarcity of empirical studies investigating the impact of leadership styles on e-Government use in the service industry. This is doubly true of styles such as transformational, transactional and servant leadership. Theorised models propose that leadership style forms the desired organisational culture for implementing e-services, organisational culture being the mediator and the national culture the moderator. This research fills the empirical gap by investigating how leadership forms the organisational culture that facilitates and enhances the implementation and use of e-go

Abstract:
Global developments have brought many changes to Saudi Arabia. One of these is that women are now being encouraged to become educated and participate in the workforce in order to contribute to the social and economic development of the country. In order to achieve this, it is necessary for girls to receive a good education. However, there is currently no adequate training programme in place for female head teachers, which means that girls’ education does not always reach a desirable standard. The main objective of this thesis is to determine the most important training needs of head teachers i

In this respect, intermediaries have emerged as a new model for delivering e-government services to overcome such obstacles. This study aims to examine the role of intermediaries in facilitating e-government adoption and diffusion using a survey based empirical study of 502 participants in Madinah City in Saudi Arabia. An extended UTAUT model is used as the theoretical basis utlising trust in the Internet and Intermediaries. The results of this study show
