The present research aims at analyzing the correlation and impact between inclusive leadership and job enrichment in the Kirkuk Education Directorate in Kirkuk Governorate. The research problem included applied questions, with the main question represented in (Does inclusive leadership have a role in enhancing job enrichment among employees in the Kirkuk Education Directorate in Kirkuk Governorate?). The study employed the descriptive analytical approach, whereby the study variables and their dimensions were described, followed by the formulation of a hypothetical model reflecting the nature of correlation and influence relationships among the study variables and their dimensions. This resulted in a number of main and sub-hypotheses, all of which were subjected to a set of statistical analyses and tests using the programs (SPSS-26) and (AMOS-26). The Kirkuk Education Directorate in Kirkuk Governorate was selected as the research field, while the study population included all employees of the Directorate, totaling (278) individuals. A total of (200) questionnaires were distributed, of which (173) were retrieved, and (149) valid forms were suitable for analysis, meaning that the study sample consisted of (149) employees. The study reached several conclusions, most notably the existence of a positive relationship and a statistically significant effect between inclusive leadership and job enrichment. In light of these results, the study recommended strengthening inclusive leadership practices and effectively implementing them as a key strategy to enhance job enrichment in organizations.
