Abstract
The research, titled “A Study of Participation in the Strategic Planning of the Personnel of the College of Allied Health Sciences, Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University,” aimed to (1) examine the levels of knowledge and understanding, attitudes toward participation, organizational behavior, and involvement in strategic planning among the personnel of the College of Allied Health Sciences. (2) Analyze the statistical correlations among knowledge and understanding, attitudes towards participation, organizational behavior, and involvement in strategic planning; and ( 3) forecast employees' engagement in strategic planning based on their knowledge, attitudes, and organizational conduct . They were chosen through proportional stratified sampling to make up a group of 60 people. Descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation, as well as multiple regression analysis, were used in the study . The findings indicated that ( 1) it is necessary to examine the levels of various factors . The highest score overall was for knowledge and understanding of strategic planning. These results indicated that people were most likely to want to take part in strategic planning. Organizational behavior, rated the best in all areas, also received the highest overall score for participation in strategic planning . ( 2) The correlation and regression analyses demonstrated that organizational behavior exhibited the most significant positive relationship with participation. ( 3) The results of the multiple regression analysis indicated th at the strongest predictor of participation was organizational behavior (β = .467, p = .000). Knowledge and understanding came in second (β = .259, p = .034). On the other hand, attitude (β = .189, p = .057) was not a strong predictor of participation . Consequently, recommendations for future research should focus on promoting supportive leadership behaviors in the workplace and effectively communicating the vision necessary for collaboration, maintenance, and enhancement.
