Abstract

The purpose of this study is to describe the state of managerial leadership roles and their effect on building human resource capability in North Wollo Zone, Amhara regional state, Ethiopia. It is intended to examine to what extent leaders play significant managerial leadership roles, such as facilitation, monitoring, innovation, brokering, producing, directing, coordinating and mentoring to build value-adding human resource capability in the study area. To meet already stated objectives mixed-method research design was used. The study areas, North Wollo Zone were selected purposively. Woreda in the Zone and sectors in Woreda were selected using stratified sampling. A simple random sampling technique was applied to select study participants. The data was collected through a questionnaire, interview and document review. Both inferential statistical tools—correlation and regression, and descriptive research statistical tools—mean and percentage analysis techniques are applied to provide meaning for raw data. The findings of this study confirmed the inadequate practice of managerial leadership roles as well as building value-adding human resource capability. Managerial leadership roles and building human resource capability have a positive and strong relationship. Managerial leadership roles have a significant effect on building institutions’ human resource capability.
