https://ejournal.lucp.net/index.php/ijrtbt/article/view/3923
<p><strong>Introduction</strong>: This study explores the impact of transformational leadership on employee deviant innovation behaviour, focussing on the mediating roles of work missions and innovative self-efficacy while also examining the influence of regulatory adaptation, cultural training, and communication efficiency on project success. <strong>Objective</strong>: Leadership style is an important factor that influences employee behaviour. Based on trait elicitation theory, self-efficacy theory, and social information processing theory, this article selects transformational leadership and employee deviant innovation behaviour as research objects and selects work mission and innovative self-efficacy as mediating variables to explore the mechanism of transformational leadership on employee deviant innovation behaviour. <strong>Methods</strong>: SPSS was used to analyse 188 valid survey questionnaires; multiple linear regression models were used for analysis. <strong>Results</strong>: Regulatory adaptation and cultural training have a significant positive impact on project success, and they also have a significant positive impact on communication efficiency. In terms of the impact on project success, communication efficiency partially mediates the relationship between regulatory adaptation and project success, while communication efficiency partially mediates the relationship between cultural training and project success. <strong>Conclusion</strong>: This study provides practical insights for international project managers, emphasising the importance of regulatory adaptation, cultural training, and effective communication in achieving project success. This study highlights the critical role of transformational leadership in influencing employee deviant innovation behaviour, with work mission and innovative self-efficacy acting as key mediators. Additionally, regulatory adaptation and cultural training significantly enhance project success, with communication efficiency serving as a partial mediator in these relationships. These findings offer valuable insights for international project managers, emphasising the need for effective leadership, regulatory adaptation, cultural training, and strong communication to drive successful project outcomes.</p>Chao ChengDhakir Abbas Ali

https://ejournal.lucp.net/index.php/ijrtbt/article/view/4108
<p><strong>Introduction</strong>: In the landscape of human resource management's evolution and amidst the significance of leadership, understanding how leadership styles influence employees' work performance is crucial. This research delves into the impacts of autocratic, democratic, and laissez-faire leadership styles on tasks and contextual performance, considering the mediating role of the organisational climate. <strong>Methods</strong>: A questionnaire-based survey was conducted from March to May 2024, targeting 16 enterprises in Beijing. Out of the responses, 204 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 87.18%. Scales from previous studies were used to measure leadership styles, organisational climates, and workplace performance. SPSS 22.0 was employed for reliability, validity, correlation, and regression analyses. <strong>Results</strong>: Autocratic leadership negatively impacts work performance, democratic leadership has a positive effect, and laissez-faire leadership shows no significant correlation with work performance. Organisational climate partially mediates the relationship between autocratic and democratic leadership and work performance, with different mediating degrees in task and contextual performance. However, it does not mediate the relationship between laissez-faire leadership and work performance. Autocratic leadership may limit employees' autonomy, reducing work enthusiasm. Democratic leadership encourages participation and enhances performance. The lack of significant impact of laissez-faire leadership might be due to insufficient guidance. Organisational climate plays a crucial role in the leadership-performance relationship, and different leadership styles interact with it variably. <strong>Conclusion</strong>: Leadership styles have distinct effects on work performance. Organisational climate mediates the relationship between autocratic and democratic leadership and work performance, but not for laissez-faire leadership. This research enriches theoretical understanding and provides practical guidance for enterprise managers. However, it has limitations, and future research should expand samples and variables for more comprehensive insights.</p>Xu RanRozaini Binti RosliDhakir Abbas Ali

https://ejournal.lucp.net/index.php/ijrtbt/article/view/4165
<p><strong>Introduction: </strong>The exploration of how psychological motivation interacts with various leadership models to influence enterprise performance has emerged as a crucial area of investigation in modern management research, holding considerable practical value for corporate governance. <strong>Methods: </strong>This study constructs an analytical framework for leadership models and enterprise performance through "psychological motivation. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and statistically processed using SPSS to assess the reliability and validity of the scales, intervariable relationships and mediating pathways. <strong>Results: </strong>In this study, a total of 500 questionnaires were distributed through the Internet, with a valid recovery rate of 89.6%. The results of Cronbach's alpha showed that the measurement scales were stable and consistent among the sample population. The KMO and Bartlett's test of sphericity indicated that the measurement results were statistically significant and had excellent validity. The results of correlation analysis indicated that the leadership model was strongly positively correlated with enterprise performance, and psychological motivation played a partial mediating role between the two.<strong> Conclusion: </strong>This study is helpful to improve the management efficiency of leaders and can carry out targeted management according to the characteristics of employees, which has certain reference significance for enterprise management and enterprise performance. Empirical findings substantiate all proposed hypotheses within this investigation. The analysis conclusively demonstrates that psychological motivation serves as a significant mediator in the relationship between leadership models and enterprise performance. Both intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation play a partial mediating role in this causal pathway.</p>Zhang MinjieRozaini Binti RosliDhakir Abbas Ali

https://ejournal.lucp.net/index.php/ijrtbt/article/view/3722
<p><strong>Background</strong>: Educational development plays a critical role in fostering human capital, particularly in underdeveloped regions. In Pakistan, disparities in access and quality of education persist, especially in rural and marginalised areas. Human asset development involves enhancing individuals’ skills and capabilities to contribute effectively to society. <strong>Objective</strong>: This study aims to investigate the educational development of underdeveloped areas in Pakistan through the lens of technical expertise and institutional development. It specifically explores the role of education in fostering human capital in both industrialised and less- developed Asian countries. <strong>Methods</strong>: This qualitative study is grounded in extensive literature reviews of Pakistan's higher secondary educational system and Madrassah education system. The research also contextualises findings with respect to national education initiatives, particularly the Public Training Strategy (1998–2010) introduced by the Government of Pakistan. <strong>Results</strong>: The study highlights that relevant and high-quality education and training are crucial for empowering economically and socially disadvantaged populations. It underscores the importance of rudimentary education as a fundamental investment in national development. The findings also suggest that improving education requires a comprehensive approach that integrates physical and mental well-being into human development strategies. <strong>Conclusion</strong>: Educational development in underdeveloped Pakistani regions must be prioritised through targeted institutional improvements and technical capacity-building. A holistic educational strategy—incorporating quality, accessibility, and health—can serve as a catalyst for sustainable human asset development and societal progress.</p>Kaleem UllahAmiya BhaumikSyed Ahmed SalmanSajjad AhmadKhurram Zafar Awan
