Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the level to which master's students at the College of Education at Qassim University possessed the management and leadership skills required by the labor market. The study also sought to determine whether there are distinctions in the availability of these skills based on the age, gender and employment status of the sample participants. The descriptive survey method to achieve the goal of the study and to answer its questions centered on identifying the level of availability of management and leadership skills among male and female graduate students at the master's level while revealing whether there are statistically significant differences due to the variable gender, functional status and age. The population of the study included 327 male and female students from Qassim University's College of Education across all fields. The basic research sample included 102 master's students from Qassim University's College of Education who were chosen at random using the cluster approach. The study's findings revealed that while graduate students had a high level of availability of leadership and management skills, male employees aged 35 and up had a slightly higher level of availability of management and leadership skills than other groups. This distinction is not statistically significant and it could be attributed to the level of statistical effect for each variable (statistical power) and to the small sample size necessary to achieve that statistical effect. The study recommends conducting a comparable study, but on a larger scale, for graduate students across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The study also recommends that during the university stage, students' leadership and management skills be developed and that they be encouraged to volunteer so that they can apply what they have learned in the theoretical aspect of leadership and management skills.
