This research emphasized the significance of individual adaptability that plays the moderator role in the relationships of transformational leadership and employee reactions with individual work performance within the Malaysian oil and gas industry. The study respondents were employees of an oil and gas company operating in East and West Malaysia, specifically in the upstream segment. The respondents self-administered the questionnaire provided at their flexibility. The Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) in IBM-SPSS-AMOS 24.0 software was utilized to analyze and assess the inter-relationships of the study constructs. Individual adaptability was found to moderate the relationships of individual work performance with transformational leadership and employee reactions. The study findings stressed the significance of individual adaptability in boosting work performance, particularly in the oil and gas industry. Research on the moderating role of individual adaptability in the relationships of individual work performance with transformational leadership and employee reactions is limited, specifically in the Malaysian oil and gas industry. Creative, innovative, collaborative, and analytical skills are fundamental in this industry to be more competitive and generate new ideas, products, and procedures.
Work-life balance is a topic of great importance to both academic research and professional business practice. Nowadays, most businesses on a global scale are undergoing a significant paradigm shift in their work environments, which leads to the enhanced focus on empowering employees to possess multitasking skills and greater competencies in order to promote sustainable organisational growth.

This dramatic change have encouraged researchers to further investigate the impact of emotional intelligence on individual performance and work-life balance.
After entering the host country, multinational corporations often adopt a series of localization strategies in order to overcome the maladjustment caused by the inertia of some corporations when operating in the host country. This paper selects the corporate social responsibility inertia, which is most easily ignored in the corporate organizational inertia, as the analysis point to explore the impact of corporate social responsibility inertia on corporate performance and market. This paper analyzes three inertia dimensions through the combination of stakeholder theory and corporate social responsibility: structural inertia, environmental protection inertia and moral inertia. And use fixed effects mode in econometrics to empirically test the market performance data of multinational corporations in China from 2017 to 2022. The research finds that the structural inertia of corporate social responsibility negatively affects corporate performance. The moral inertia and environmental protection inertia of corporate social responsibility effects on corporation market performance is shown as a Kuznets curve. Through the improvement of localization strategy, corporations can overcome the inertia of the original country.
