Attempts are being made by various researchers to discover the best leadership practices having larger success stories.

This study adds the body of knowledge in leadership and project management by presenting current times transformational leadership dimensions particularly for ensuring project success. Further, the current study elaborates various dimensions of transformational leadership that are helpful of project managers to boost project success. This is a unique inquest to compare the dimensions of two different transformational leadership models in relation to project success and present a comprehensive package based on dimensions that are relatively more effective to ensure project success.
