Abstract

The current study aims to identify the extent to which entrepreneurial personality traits (the need for achievement, vigilance, locus of control, creativity) can enhance resonant leadership in its dimensions (hope, compassion, mindfulness). This was achieved by adopting a descriptive-analytical approach using a questionnaire distributed to 116 senior leaders in the technical institutes affiliated with Al-Furat Al-Awsat University. The result was 91 valid questionnaires and 25 retrieved questionnaires. 
Simple correlation coefficient was used in the testing of the research hypotheses along with multiple regression analysis and tools of statistics that are suitable for realizing the research objectives, namely, SPSS v2.24. The applied results of the research proved the validity of the proposed hypotheses, based on which the researcher concluded a number of conclusions, most notably that the entrepreneurial personality plays a vital role in enhancing resonant leadership in organizations because leaders who possess entrepreneurial traits such as challenge, courage, and risk-taking are more influential on others, which leads to a more positive and enthusiastic work environment.
