Abstract: Abstract A middle manager is a company official who is in charge of a specific function. Therefore, at various strategic levels, a middle manager's leadership practice has a significant impact on the strategy implementation process. This study focuses on the influence of middle managers’ leadership practices on the outcomes of corporate and functional strategy implementation in relation to Vietnamese information technology (IT) enterprises. The study employs quantitative research techniques to evaluate the research model by surveying 220 middle managers, and the data is analyzed using PLS-SEM. The results show the positive influence of five leadership practice areas highlighted by the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI) on functional and enterprise-level strategy implementation. The research results assist IT businesses in developing solutions to strengthen middle managers’ leadership practices in order to improve the outcomes of their strategy implementation.
