national leadership
Ruling a nation
National leadership refers to those who govern or guide a country—typically the head of state, head of government, and senior officials who set policy direction.
The term emphasizes collective authority rather than individual power: The national leadership announced new economic measures.
It can also describe the quality of guidance a nation receives: The country suffered from weak national leadership during the crisis.
