“…Rasoolimanesh et al (2021) recommend integrating the analytical power of SmartPLS and fsQCA to facilitate an in-depth exploration of the interplay of research variables. SmartPLS is a robust tool that enables us to explore the association within the study model comprehensively (Hussain et al, 2023). A structural equation model (SEM) was obtained using this tool, providing insight into the complex relationships between variables.…”

IntroductionThe growing trend of social media use has influenced all segments of society, including education, during the COVID-19 pandemic. At the same time, authentic leadership is an emerging concept in positive psychology for dealing with emergencies in the digital era. The possibility of a relationship between the two was checked in preservice teachers studying in a teacher education department of a university in Pakistan. The conceptual framework of the study was built around teaching acceptance model (TAM) and Authentic leadership theory.MethodsThe survey method suited the aim of the research, and questionnaires aided us in gathering participant self-reporting responses. We conducted two surveys, and in between them, a course was taught online using social media as a teaching and learning platform. The survey results checked preservice teachers’ positive intentions toward social media-based learning, and the post-course survey studied the development of Authentic leadership attributes among the preservice teachers. Technology acceptance was measured across three constructs: ease of use, usefulness, and positive intentions. The results also reported the development of three authentic leadership characteristics: ethics, self-regulation, and self-awareness.Results and discussionThis study is among the pioneering studies integrating TAM (i.e., the acceptance of social media-based learning) with leadership theory (i.e., authentic leadership). It also adds a methodological contribution by combining symmetrical (i.e., partial least squares structural equation modeling) and asymmetrical (i.e., fuzzy set qualitative comparative technique) for data analysis. The study’s findings are valuable for teacher education institutions, as they help prepare future teachers to become authentic leaders capable of addressing future crises by leveraging education through social media-based teaching and learning platforms.

“…Prior studies recommend avoiding the use of complicated vocabulary or technical words in your communication, to be clear and concise [17]. The success of a project depends on effective communication, which encourages the sharing of innovative ideas and standpoints and prevents disagreements [20]. Team members should be encouraged to communicate their ideas and opinions honestly and openly, and the problems or concerns should be addressed [21].…”

This study investigates the relationship between communication factors, stakeholders’ engagement, and project success (P.S.) of renewable energy in Pakistan. The aim of this study is to identify the communication factors that impact the success of renewable energy projects. The research investigates multiple dimensions of communication factors such as internal communication, external communication, leadership, relationship, and corporation. Moreover, we also tested the indirect relationship using the stakeholder’s engagement (S.E.) as a mediating variable. We used a quantitative approach using the questionnaire survey. The random and snowball sampling technique was used to collect data from the project managers, project engineers, and team leaders associated with renewable projects in Pakistan. We collected data in two phases. In the first phase, between August 2023 and December 2022, we distributed 400 complete research questionnaires. In return, we received 337 questionnaires, 84% of the distributed questionnaires. Similarly, between January 2023 and February 2023, we distributed 350 research questionnaires; in return, we received 255 questionnaires, which is 73% of the distributed questionnaires. However, we collected data from the 592 respondents engaged with renewable energy projects. Further, the structural equation modeling technique (SEM) was performed to analyze the study data through SmartPLS 4.1. The outcomes confirmed that communication factors significantly and positively impact the project’s success. The results guaranteed that communication factors have a positive and significant relationship with the stakeholder’s engagement. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that stakeholders’ engagement mediates communication factors and project success, enhancing the project’s success.

“…A quantitative questionnaire survey to identify contributing to project failure, revealing poor risk management, budget overruns, inadequate communication management, schedule delays, and inaccurate estimation practices as the top five culprits behind project failures [10]. Cost overrun-related factors and deficiencies in contractors' site management were identified as critical elements affecting cost performance [9]. Critical Success Factors (CSFs) for construction projects were proposed to encompass various aspects, including the establishment of clear and realistic project goals, effective project planning, the competence and relevant experience of the project manager, the client's ability to make timely decisions, and the project's value, complexity, and uniqueness.…”

“…However, not all construction projects achieve this success, with some experiencing delays and setbacks. Hence, it is imperative for organizations engaged in construction to formulate strategic approaches that can steer projects towards success [9]. These strategies must support firms to navigate challenges, mitigate risks, and adapt to the dynamic nature of construction projects, ensuring that they not only meet their objectives but also contribute positively to the growth and stability of the broader economy.…”
