<p>This paper appraises the theoretical assumptions of group theory within the purview of public policy with a specific focus on the Nigerian context. It begins by providing conceptual clarity on policy, public policy, and public policy analysis to lay the foundation for the subsequent discussion. The paper then examines the underlying assumptions of group theory and critiques its applicability within public policy discourse. Through the analysis of secondary data, this paper explores the role of group theory in shaping policy formulation and implementation processes. It highlights the significant influence of group actions on government policies, illustrating how various interest groups exert pressure and influence decision-making processes. This paper concludes that public policy emerges as a result of collective agitation and interaction within a given society. It recognises that various groups play pivotal roles in shaping policy outcomes, yet their actions are typically governed by established rules, fostering a climate of peaceful competition among competing interests.</p>

<p>Organizations continually try to improve the level of leadership capability and increase the number of qualified successors for leadership positions by supporting leadership development (LD) training program. This qualitative research explores the influence and impact of Saudi Vision 2030 in developing potential and existing leaders to succeed as leaders and support the realization of Saudi Vision 2030. The study is conducted to bridge the gap and highlight the influence and impact of Saudi Vision 2030 in LD. Analyzing the influence of Saudi Vision 2030 in LD will significantly help HR leaders to assess, identify, and evaluate the needs of LD programs in the organization. The study is aimed at two main objectives: First, identifying the LD programs in light of Saudi Vision 2030. Second, assessing the impact of LD programs in achieving the goals of Saudi Vision 2030. A purposeful sample of seven participants is drawn from semi-structured interviews conduced by a researcher from Oil &amp; Gas Company at Saudi Arabia. The results provide evidence that LD programs are essential. The results provide evidence that designing and implementing LD programs to fill a leadership gap is productive. The study supports the influence and impact of Saudi Vision 2030 in LD, by the expansion and implementation of LD programs in the Saudi labor market. Participants who pursued LD opportunities indicated the importance of institutional involvement in LD programs.</p>
