“…Technology-based firms have an impact on economic growth, job opportunities and many innovations as explained by Massa and Testa (2008). Despite the importance of technologybased firms towards the economy, limited studies have been found focusing on technology-based firms (Majid, Ismail & Cooper, 2011;Ajagbe, Choi, Aslan & Ismail, 2012;Arshad, Rasli, Mustafar & Norhalim, 2013;Arshad, Goh & Rasli, 2014;Arshad, 2016). Many researches have been studying leadership styles where majority concentrated in SMEs (Yang, 2008;Yildrim & Saygin, 2011;Arham & Muenjohn, 2012).…”

Many researches have been conducted on leadership styles and business performance in Malaysia. However none of these researches specifically studied transformational leadership and business performance from the perspectives of technology-based SMEs. This paper serves two purposes. First, the authors aim to identify the critical dimensions of transformational leadership and business performance. Second, this paper intends to determine the relationship between transformational leadership and business performance. This study used a quantitative method approach using survey questionnaire. 86 respondents who are the owners or top managers of technology-based SMEs in Malaysia took part in the study. The analyses conducted involved factor, reliability and correlation analysis. The results of factor analysis proposed three dimensions representing transformational leadership, i.e. enthusiastic optimism, idealized influence and individual consideration which is contrary to the four dimensions theorized by Bass and Avolio (2004). In addition, business performance generated a one-factordimension. The correlation analysis indicates there is a significant and positive correlation between transformational leadership and business performance. The originality of this paper lies on being the first to examine the transformational leadership and business performance in technology-based SMEs in Malaysia.

“…The PLS-SEM relaxes the tight sample size and normality assumptions of covariance-based SEM (Haenlein& Kaplan, 2004;Wong, 2013). Because research constructs are multidimensional and latent, structural equation modelling (SEM) is the most suitable method, which is why PLS-SEM was used in this work (Arshad, Goh, & Rasli, 2014;Bawuro et al 2019). PLS-SEM evaluation is done in two steps.…”

Many of the organization's problems are attributed to incompetent or mismatched administrators. They may use an inappropriate leadership style with project subordinates. There is lack of studies on leadership styles and organisational performance, especially in oil and gas organisations. Hence, this research examines the relationship leadership styles and organisational performanceof ADNOC company. This study involved questionnairesurveyfor data collection andanalysis of 398 questionnaire forms was carried out through structuralequation modelling. Thestudy established a mediationmodelwhere the external factors act as mediator to the relationship. Based on the assessment on the model, it was found that Charismatic and Democratic leadership styles havea significant impact on organisational performance while Transformational and Transactional do not have significant effect on the organization performance. Also, external environment is proven as mediator of Charismatic and Democratic leadership styles. Overall, the developed model can assist for adopting the leadership style in achievingthe successful organizational performanceof ADNOC Company.

“…The strict suppositions of covariance-based SEM of sample size and normality are lessened by the PLS-SEM (Haenlein& Kaplan, 2004;Wong, 2013). The use of PLS-SEM in this study was motivated by the fact that research constructs are multi-dimensional and latent, making Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) the most appropriate technique (Arshad, Goh, & Rasli, 2014;Bawuro et al 2019). PLS-SEM is evaluated in two stages.…”

The world is rapidly changing as a result of technology, which has played an important role in organisational development by improving operations and reducing obstacles. Businesses are constantly investing in technology in order to improve their performance and gain a competitive advantage over their competitors. Technological advancements assist businesses in automating their systems and management, providing them with the impetus to efficiently target customers through low-cost business solutions. As a result, this paper examined the relationship between technology adoption and the performance of business organisations involved in manufacturing.This study was conducted quantitatively, with data collected via questionnaire survey. The collected data was used to develop the model of structural relationship between the factors using PLS-SEM approach. Based on the validated PLS-SEM model, it was found that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating condition all have a positive relationship with technology adoption. One of the most significant benefits of increased technological use in manufacturing firms is increased revenue through improved performance. The evaluation of the mediation effects of firm size and training on the relationship between technology adoption and manufacturing firm performance in the UAE revealed that the hypotheses' outcomes were positive, indicating that firm size and training do play a role in manufacturing performance. When using technology in manufacturing, the training and firm size have a significant impact on manufacturing performance.
