The 6th to 20th leadership skills have Eigen value below 1.000 and jointly explain only about 22.9% of the total variations which confirm that they are no necessity important for considerations. The component matrix in table 3.1 shows that the choice of the leadership skills like Communication was extracted in component 1, Planning for the Required Result in component 2, Flexibility in component 3, Risk-Taking in component 4 and Focusing on Process in component 5 out of the identified leadership skills. The study recommends that the developed leadership skills framework is for construction stakeholders and is used as a motivational tool for construction managers in Anambra State to increase productivity and retention of construction employees. When developing construction managers in Anambra State, the human resources team should prioritize communication skills, the ability to plan for the desired outcome, flexibility in decision-making, the ability to take risks, and a focus on the work process rather than the output. |
