Abstract
Researchers and practitioners are trying hard to analyze the leadership into a widespread
and general set of processes, methods, and measures. Attempts are being made by various
researchers to discover the best leadership practices having larger success stories. The
purpose of this inquiry is to investigate the impact of transformational leadership factors
on project success. In this empirical investigation, transformational leadership has been
discussed by combining two different leadership models in this study. The data were
obtained from 125 project managers selected through systematic random technique
working on different higher education commission projects in Pakistan and analyzed
using PLS-SEM. The results unveiled six dimensions of transformational leaders from
two different leadership models that have better responsiveness towards project success
i.e. model the way, inspired a shared vision, challenge the process, enable others to act,
encourage the heart and individual consideration. This study adds the body of knowledge
in leadership and project management by presenting current times transformational
leadership dimensions particularly for ensuring project success. Further, the current study
elaborates various dimensions of transformational leadership that are helpful of project
managers to boost project success. This is a unique inquest to compare the dimensions of
two different transformational leadership models in relation to project success and
present a comprehensive package based on dimensions that are relatively more effective
to ensure project success.
