Abstract:Transformational leadership has drawn extensive attention in management research. In this field, the influence of transformational leadership on employee performance is an important branch. Recent research indicates that organizational citizenship behavior plays a mediating role between transformational leadership and employee performance. However, some of these findings contradict each other. Given the background where greater attention is being paid to transformational leadership in the construction industry, this research aims to find the degree of the influence of transformational leadership on employee sustainable performance, as well as the mediating role of organizational citizenship behavior. A total of 389 questionnaires were collected from contractors and analyzed via structural equation modeling. The findings reveal that employee sustainable performance is positively influenced by transformational leadership. In addition, more than half of that influence is mediated by their organizational citizenship behavior. These findings remind project managers of the need to pay close attention to transformational leadership, to cultivate organizational citizenship behavior, and thereby to eventually improve employee's sustainable performance.

“…The most important element is that PMs understand clearly their function as project leaders; clearly defining their magnitude level of involvement, and the authority and control, they practice over personnel. According to several researchers (Gudiene et al, 2013;Nguyen, Ogunlana & Lan, 2004;Tabish & Jha, 2012;Toor & Ogunlana, 2009), the main competency fields of the project manager are capability in terms of the proper technical background that encourages respect from team players, technical experience, coordinating, mutual trust and understanding, and decision-making effectiveness.

“…During the last five years and due to the subject's high importance, several studies have investigated the factors that lead to the successful completion of construction projects; particularly those factors that influence construction project success more than others (Iyer & Jha, 2006;Toor & Ogunlana, 2009;Mukhtar, Amirudin, Sofield & Mohamad, 2016;Chou, Irawan & Pham, 2013;Yong & Mustaffa, 2013;Doloi, Sawhney, Iyer & Rentala, 2012;Chen, W., Chen, T., Lu & Liu, 2012;Ahadzie, Proverbs & Olomolaiye, 2008;Amade, Ubani, Omajeh & Njoku, 2015;Gudienėa, Banaitisa, Banaitienėa & Lopesb, 2013;Tabish & Jha, 2012).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the critical success factors and the critical delays in the context of water infrastructure construction projects (WICPs) in the Abu Dhabi Emirate. In addition, the purpose of this paper is to develop a conceptual model to investigate the potential relationship. The literature concerning the critical success and delay factors and the related models that are available provide a starting point for developing the conceptual model. Based on the comprehensive and thorough literature review, all the dimensions of the variables are identified and discussed in detail.This study attempts to reduce the existing gap in the literature regarding the relationship between the critical success factors and critical delay. It forms a foundation upon which further local research can be conducted. In addition, it attempts to identify and point out the most critical success factors that will minimize the delay claims in water infrastructure construction projects (WICPs), as such delays would lead to some of the most difficult and controversial disputes to resolve. Internationally, it is expected that the findings of this research may help as an evidentiary reference data on which other and further similar comparative researches could be initiated and developed in different environments in terms of cultural, social, contractual, political, and environmental mediums.
