project success with innovation as a mediator and self-efficacy as a moderator. The sample was
drawn using convenient sampling technique. The data is collected through survey method, from
branches of telecom firms in Pakistan (n = 327). The analysis is carried out by using SPSS v.25 and
AMOS v.23 software’s to test hypothesis. The findings suggested that there is positive and
significant relationship between ambidextrous leadership and project success. For the projects to
be successful, the leaders need to be ambidextrous by being explorative and exploitative according
to the situation to meet challenges and overcome constraints. Innovation mediates the relationship
between ambidextrous leadership and project success. Furthermore, results indicated that selfefficacy positively moderates the relationship between innovation and project success. Finally,

guidelines to understand how ambidextrous leadership affects the success of projects within the
