Achieving employees\u2019 engagement is similar to the new Blue Ocean leadership approach (BOL) that gives an entirely new system as worker\u2019s points of view are considered in building a new leadership profile. The key objective of this research paper is to analyse the impact of BOL on professional-level employee engagement through Kim and Mauborgne\u2019s BOL grid four-action framework variables, particularly in the private sector. To test the developed hypothesis, the researcher applied simple linear regression and multiple regression analysis methods. The result of this research study showed that all the four-action BOL grid variables are significant in employee engagement. Further, to develop the new leadership profile, the researcher also used multiple regression analysis to conduct a detailed analysis on the impact of the BOL approach through BOL grid four-action framework variables separately. From the outcomes of the evaluation, it is accomplished that the new leadership blue ocean methodology creates a higher influence on employee engagement via the detected acts along with activities in the new BOL grid since the Create variables have extremely higher significance with 87% ([Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]), the Eliminate variables have next-level higher significance with 84% (([Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]), followed by the Raise variables that have the next higher importance with 72% ([Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]) which displays the consequence of BOL grid (all four-action) variables on employee engagement. In view of impending private sectors in Oman Vision 2040, the results of this research could be an important pointer to be considered in Oman\u2019s private sector development. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0219649222400251","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,15]],"date-time":"2022-05-15T05:52:30Z","timestamp":1652593950000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Reforming the Activities of Leaders for Professional Level Employee Engagement: A Blue Ocean Leadership Approach"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"S.","family":"Porkodi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Business Studies, University of Technology and Applied Sciences (HCT), Muscat, Sultanate of Oman"}]},{"given":"Bassam Khalil Hamdan","family":"Tabash","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Business Studies, University of Technology and Applied Sciences (HCT), Muscat, Sultanate of Oman"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,11]]},"reference":[{"issue":"4","key":"S0219649222400251BIB001","first-page":"41","volume":"2","author":"Al Mamari L","year":"2019","journal-title":"Journal of Research in Management"},{"issue":"11","key":"S0219649222400251BIB002","first-page":"27","volume":"5","author":"Al Marhoosbi","year":"2017","journal-title":"International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB003","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5539\/ass.v13n3p102"},{"issue":"11","key":"S0219649222400251BIB004","first-page":"27","volume":"5","author":"Attan T","year":"2017","journal-title":"International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management"},{"issue":"3","key":"S0219649222400251BIB005","first-page":"816","volume":"10","author":"Daud S","year":"2018","journal-title":"Global Business and Management Research an International Journal"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB008","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.heliyon.2020.e03699"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB009","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5539\/ijbm.v11n1p72"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5539\/ijbm.v11n1p72"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB011","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1467-8551.12214"},{"issue":"8","key":"S0219649222400251BIB012","first-page":"1","volume":"2","author":"Hanafi WNW","year":"2016","journal-title":"International Journal of Management and Applied Science"},{"issue":"2","key":"S0219649222400251BIB013","first-page":"58","volume":"20","author":"Hans A","year":"2018","journal-title":"IOSR Journal of Business and Management"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB014","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/256287"},{"issue":"1","key":"S0219649222400251BIB016","first-page":"22","volume":"3","author":"Kocolowski MD","year":"2010","journal-title":"Emerging Leadership Journal"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB017","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5539\/ijbm.v9n11p72"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB018","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1108\/MD-07-2014-0464"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB019","volume-title":"The Art and Science of Leadership","author":"Nahavandi A","year":"2002","edition":"3"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB022","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1108\/02621710610684231"},{"issue":"2","key":"S0219649222400251BIB023","first-page":"22","volume":"5","author":"Porkodi","year":"2015","journal-title":"The International Journal of Commerce and Behavioural Science"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB025","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.leaqua.2010.12.011"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB026","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1108\/02683940610684409"},{"key":"S0219649222400251BIB027","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1059601108331242"}],"container-title":["Journal of Information &amp; Knowledge Management"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1142\/S0219649222400251","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,8]],"date-time":"2022-07-08T06:26:36Z","timestamp":1657261596000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/10.1142\/S0219649222400251"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,11]]},"references-count":21,"journal-issue":{"issue":"Supp02","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,7]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1142\/S0219649222400251"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1142\/s0219649222400251","relation":{},"ISSN":["0219-6492","1793-6926"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0219-6492"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1793-6926"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,11]]},"article-number":"2240025"}}
