Mastering Project Management: The Leader-Team Connection

Original language description

Purpose: The research examines the relationship between transformational leadership, team cohesion, and project objectives&apos; achievement rate in public organizations.Design/methodology/approach: The survey selected 18 offices in Poland&apos;s voivodeship capitals and included all 269 departments and faculties. Directors nominated employees for a questionnaire focusing on projects needing diverse skills. 70 employees (and projects) were selected, with 50 responding to the subsequent survey conducted via computer-assistedtelephone interviewing (CATI). Findings: Understanding and implementing transformational leadership is essential in public administration for fostering team cohesion and project success. Although team cohesion is currently lacking, enhancing communication and collaboration can improve it. Transformational leadership encourages idea generation and team representation, yet its direct impact on project objectives is minimal. Public organizations should invest in leadership development to address project needs and navigate bureaucratic challenges effectively.Research limitations/implications: Limitations of research include potential self-selection bias among participants and unaccounted external variables like political pressures, funding constraints, and policy changes that could affect the relationship between leadership styles, team cohesion, and project success. Future research should address these factors for a more comprehensive understanding of effective leadership in public administration.Practical implications: Practical implications suggest investing in leadership development programs to cultivate transformational leadership qualities, fostering team cohesion, and aligning goals with organizational missions. Leaders should prioritize integrity, transparency, and ccountability to navigate the unique challenges of the public sector, enhancing project performance through collaborative and supportive team environments.Social implications: Socially, promoting transformational leadership fosters collaboration and inclusivity within public organizations, enhancing team dynamics and potentially improving service delivery to the public. Encouraging leadership qualities like empowerment and transparency contributes to a more accountable and socially responsible public sector.
