The research is aimed to investigate the role of academic leaders at the University of Saba Region in serving the community. It uses a descriptive-analytical approach and a questionnaire with (52) items organized into four main fields. The questionnaire is applied to a sample of (40) participants, including faculty deans, vice deans, and heads of departments, selected by using a stratified random sampling method. The study arrives at several important findings. First, academic leaders play a crucial role in contributing to the social, economic, and educational development of the community across various areas. Second, the arithmetic average for all fields was high, indicating strong approval from the research sample regarding the role of academic leaders in serving the community. Third, the role of academic leaders in promoting community culture and reinforcing values comes in the first rank. The second rank is attributed to the role of leaders in developing community initiatives. The third rank is the role of leaders in community research, and the role of academic leaders in training and consulting comes in the fourth rank. The findings indicate that there were no statistically significant differences at the (0.05) significance level in the responses from the research sample across all fields, attributed to the job variable and the years of experience variable. This indicates a consensus among the research participants. The study is concluded with a set of recommendations and suggestions aimed at enhancing and clarifying the role of academic leaders in community service.
