Women Leadership and Work Special Effects: Role of Organization Support Pakistan

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to highlight that senior management is avoiding women from key leadership positions, also avoiding their entry to higher education institutions. Moreover, senior management doesn’t allow them to learn skills through administrative techniques that help them to build their leadership role and confidence. Based on equity theory, this research examines the impact of women's leadership on work special effects with the moderating role of organization support. Data were collected from private and public sector universities of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa through a survey questionnaire. Based on 294 respondents’ responses the study found a significant association with women leadership and work special effect (AC, WP). The moderation analysis shows that the moderator significantly and positively moderates the relationship between WL and WSE. This research is the first to validate a women leadership scale in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
