Abstract

Purpose: The aim of the research is to activate the influence of strategic mind to enhance the principle of social responsibility in Dhi Qar Oil Company.

Theoretical Framework: Recent literature indicates a growing trend towards applying the principle of social responsibility, transforming it into a competitive strategy among organizations, especially when possessing strategic mind to devise implementation steps (Khouj, 2020:84).

Design/Methodology/Approach:We analyzed the literature and activities advocating for the implementation of the principle of social responsibility using the scale (Schwartz & Carroll, 2003:67) in various organizations. We also examined the impact of possessing a strategic mindset, as measured by (Pisapia et al., 2005:60), on achieving desired outcomes through local, regional, and international research and studies in this regard.

Results: The research findings indicate a significant direct positive relationship between strategic mind and social responsibility overall, particularly concerning the economic dimension. A set of recommendations was provided to rectify the nature of these variables in practice, in line with research trends.

Research, Practical & Social implications: We propose that organizations integrate the implementation of the principle of responsibility into their future strategies, considering it a competitive advantage to be achieved.

Originality/value: The results indicate that the application of the principle of social responsibility has begun to be implemented in organizations, especially those with a strategic vision derived from their strategic mind leaders, achieving levels of satisfaction and approval from stakeholders.
