IT initiatives are crucial for innovation, operations, and corporate competitiveness in today’s environment. Understanding the complex relationship between team performance and leadership is crucial. Team performance and leadership are increasingly seen as crucial to IT project success, but little is known about this complex relationship in IT project management. Few research has examined how leadership behaviours and techniques affect IT team performance and project outcomes, despite various studies on team dynamics or leadership effectiveness. This study examines aspects of IT project leadership and team performance. A closed-ended survey was used to acquire quantitative data for the study. The data was analysed using SPSS and Spearman’s correlation to discover the variables’ relationships. The study developed a leadership model from the data that greatly impacts IT project success. This study suggests that project managers find, cultivate, and execute practical ideas to improve project success rates. Understanding the complex relationship between team performance and leadership and using effective leadership tactics helps boost IT project success. Copyright © 2024, The Authors.
