Purpose: This study tends to examine the influence of transformational leadership on project project and team performance specifically employee empowerment, employee stimulation, and project efficiency and effectiveness. Design/methodology/approach: The study is underpinned by a quantitative methodology and deductive reasoning. A questionnaire was employed. Purposive sampling was used and a sample of 288 individuals was obtained. Findings: Transformational leadership has a positive impact on project management and team performance. Implications: Fostering a nurturing environment led by managers is crucial, enabling employees to freely express themselves, exhibit proactivity, and experience respect. Encouraging transparent communication concerning individual objectives and responsibilities is highly recommended. Practical implications: From a pragmatic standpoint, the study was structured around the validation of three hypotheses. The results have substantiated a favorable association between leadership and the empowerment of employees, the stimulation of employees, as well as the efficiency and effectiveness of projects. Originality/value: The synthesis of existing literature implies that effective team management significantly shapes project performance and, by extension, the holistic performance of organizations. This shift is underscored by a transition from traditional hierarchical frameworks to team-centric structures that foster performance-friendly settings. Within this context, the pivotal roles of leadership and employee empowerment have emerged as indispensable drivers. To put it succinctly, while evaluating project success, managers should prioritize quantifiable metrics like costs, schedules, and scope. Concurrently, they should cultivate a profound comprehension of the multifaceted influences that intricately intersect with project endeavors.
