A descriptive correlative approach was used by applying a questionnaire to a random sample of (100) Head of Department, during the second semester of the academic year 1442/1443. The findings revealed that faculty members practice both creative leadership and crisis management to a high degree. The study recommended holding training courses for faculty members, creating incentives systems and rewards, stimulating creative leadership among faculty members in universities, and spreading a culture of creativity.
