This study assessed the realities of the Saudi labor market and the need for competitive PhD programs in educational management, the aim being to propose a vision for such a program. An analysis of the current educational reality was obtained through interviews, as well as the following information: employer, years of experience, and method of recruitment, along with a number of statements presented to participants for their reaction that were designed to elicit their opinion on the importance of having competitive PhD programs in leadership. The population for this study consisted of a random sample of stakeholders (n = 24) in the labor market. Three main results emerged from the study: a) the educational labor market needs to acquire knowledge about a competitive leadership degree at the PhD level in educational administration. b) A good program for leadership in educational management would provide universities a competitive advantage at the doctoral level. The educational labor market needs academic and professional knowledge from people with doctoral degrees in educational management.

Limited Supply

The article discusses the issue of shortage of skills in the Russian industry. Using microdata from a survey of industrial enterprises, the author confirms that most of employers complain of difficulties in hiring and attaching skilled workers. In case of mass occupations, this shortage relates mostly to low efficient enterprises, which are unable or unwilling to pay competitive market going wage. More efficient and better paying firms are less likely to face shortage of general skills on the labor market but may face limited supply of specific skills.
