This study examines the direct, mediating, and moderating effects of Transformational Leadership (TL), Work Engagement (WE), and Project Complexity (PC) on Project Success (PS). Using survey methods and multivariate data analysis through structural equation modeling with 326 project managers in Vietnam, the results show that TL scientifically predicts PS; TL positively impacts WE; WE strongly influences PS; and the link between TL and PS is moderated by PC and mediated by WE. The results indicate that project-oriented businesses should consider TL when hiring for project management roles and offer transformational leadership training to assist project managers in becoming more exceptional. Future studies could use longitudinal research to understand better how the impact of these antecedents on project success changes over time.
