The study was undertaken to identify the essential leadership capabilities and managerial competencies as the key leadership performance drivers in Malaysian focused universities. To collect data, the previously developed scales of capabilities, competencies, and leadership performance in the context of Malaysian Higher Education (HE) were distributed among the leaders in seven public focused and 12 private focused universities. In total, 172 completed surveys were collected among which 94 had been filled out by the leaders in Malaysian public focused and 78 had been completed by leaders in private focused universities. The data were screened and SmartPLS 3 was employed to analyze the data. Also, Finite Mixture Partial Least Squares (FIMIX-PLS) segmentation and Importance-Performance Map Analysis (IPMA) were run to extend the results. The outcome of FIMIX-PLS didn't reveal unobserved heterogeneity within the data and, through IPMA, change-oriented capability was identified as the main improvement area to be addressed by management activities. Moreover, the implications of the findings were discussed and future directions were recommended.Keywords leadership capability and managerial competency, leadership performance, FIMIX-PLS, IPMA, Malaysian public and private focused universities

“…Through this quantitative research, the data were collected using the leadership capabilities, managerial competencies, and leadership performance scales developed by Ghasemy, Hussin, Megat Daud, Ghavifekr, and Kenayathulla (2016), Ghasemy, Hussin, Zabidi Abul Razak, Maah, and Megat Daud (2016), Ghasemy, Hussin, Megat Daud, and Md Nor (2015), and in the context of Malaysian HE. A 5-point Likert scale starting from low importance (1) to high importance (5) was also used to enable the respondents to rate the items of the survey instrument.…”

This study was an attempt to highlight the role of capabilities and competencies in determining leadership performance in Malaysian Public Research & Comprehensive Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). The previously developed capabilities, competencies, and leadership performance scales in Malaysian academic context were used to collect data from leaders in 6 Public Research and Comprehensive HEIs. In total, 196 completed surveys were collected and the data were screened. SmartPLS 3 was used to analyze the data and the results were extended using Finite Mixture Segmentation Partial Least Squares (FIMIX-PLS) and ImportancePerformance Map Analysis (IPMA). The outcome of FIMIX-PLS implied the existence of two models namely University-Faculty Level Leaders and Department-Individual Professorial Level Leaders models. Additionally, the results of IPMA showed that generic competency and change-oriented capability were the main areas of improvement to be addressed by management activities on the basis of University-Faculty Level Leaders and Department-Individual Professorial Level Leaders models, respectively.

This study was undertaken to determine the extent to which leadership capabilities and managerial competencies explain leadership performance in Malaysian Higher Education context. Data were collected from academic leaders in 25 public and private universities and colleges using a few previously developed scales in Malaysian context. Next, the collected data through 368 surveys were screened thoroughly prior to the main analysis. A variance-based structural equation modeling approach was adopted and SmartPLS 3 was used to analyze the data, followed by running finite mixture segmentation and importance-performance map analysis. The results did disclose unobserved heterogeneity within the data. Through the study, two models namely low-current-tenure leaders and high-current-tenure leaders models were developed. Moreover, role-specific competency and change-oriented capability were identified as the major areas of improvement to be addressed by managerial activities based on low-current-tenure leaders and high-current-tenure leaders models, respectively.
