The Correspondence Between PIKSA Model and the Community's Well-Being

Abstract

The study about the leadership model of local government administration in promoting well-being of the people relies on both quantitative and qualitative researches to develop the causal relationship of the leadership model. The quantitative research is based on the development of the structural equation modeling through the questionnaires with 400 participants. By using the cases of Thai subdistrict administration organizations, the qualitative research was conducted through the group conversation meeting. The results showed that the last variable affecting the results of the model was well-being, and the local administration variable influenced the last results of the model the most, followed by authentic leadership and social capital. There is the congruence between quantitative and qualitative data, leading to the simulation of leadership model for local government administration under PIKSA MODEL (P: participate in the project, I: internal ethical perspective, K: the dimension of knowledge, S: social factor, A: adaptability culture).
