The project manager has a great responsibility to their subordinates and achieves the organizational objective and allocates resources to meet the project objective and motivate the project team by providing a vision of an ideal outcome. Project management skills are very crucial to the success of a project. Many projects have failed due to the ineffective leadership style of the project managers in such a way that insufficient planning, lack of authority, and poor communication forest the lack of transparency. This study aims to analyze the impact of democratic leadership style of a project manager on project success by analyzing the mediating role of innovative work behavior. The research strategy for this study is quantitative. 300 questionnaires were distributed to established project-based organizations to collect data. Statistical software for social science research, SPSS, and PLS, was used to analyze the data. The findings show that democratic leaders have a positive impact on project success. Innovative work behavior can help to boost project success in a complex situation within an organization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The study aims to understand the main factors contributing to work-life balance satisfaction among the female employees working in the health sector of Pakistan. This study develops the framework that explains how work demands and family demands affect work-life balance satisfaction. The influence of private level support and workplace support is also examined. Sample data (N=290) was collected through a stratified random sampling technique from female doctors in the health sector of Pakistan's twin cities (i.e., Rawalpindi and Islamabad). The hypotheses were tested by multiple step-wise regression and moderation using SPSS 23 software. It has been investigated that the employer and the family support the female employees to achieve work-life balance satisfaction. In different life domains, such as the work and family domain, support at the workplace and private level may help employees deal with these domains' demands. The research study findings are helpful for academicians and health sector policymakers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
