Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine and evaluate the impact of transformational leadership on employee performance, with innovative work behavior serving as a mediating variable. The research focuses on industrial organizations in Iran, using a sample of 155 respondents from various sectors. Methodology/Approach: This study employs the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique using the AMOS software. The findings reveal that transformational leadership has a positive and significant impact on employee performance. Results: The results of this study indicate that transformational leadership positively influences employee performance, with innovative work behavior serving as a significant mediator. Transformational leadership also has a strong positive effect on fostering innovative work behavior, which in turn enhances employee performance. Limitations: The limitations of this study include the focus on industrial organizations in Iran, which may limit the generalizability of the findings to other regions or sectors. Additionally, the study relies on self-reported data from employees, which may introduce bias. Conclusion: The dynamics of leadership and employee performance are central to the success and sustainability of organizations, especially in competitive environments such as those found within Iran's industrial sector. Contribution: This study contributes to the existing literature by highlighting the role of transformational leadership in enhancing employee performance through innovative work behavior as a mediating factor. It offers valuable insights into how leadership styles can foster innovation and improve organizational performance, particularly within industrial organizations in Iran.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the impact of industrial training programs on enhancing workforce competency and bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. By analyzing employer and employee perspectives, the study highlights the role of structured training initiatives in fostering industry-relevant skills, professional development, and effective knowledge transfer. Methods: A comprehensive statistical analysis using predictive modeling techniques was employed to assess training effectiveness. Data were collected from employees, students, and supervisors to evaluate skill acquisition, industry preparedness, workplace adaptability, and training outcomes. Results: The findings indicate that industrial training significantly improves communication skills, problem-solving abilities, research orientation, and self-confidence. Employers report enhanced workforce readiness, while trainees acknowledge greater adaptability, continuous learning orientation, and improved understanding of real-world work environments. Conclusions: The study underscores the transformative impact of industrial training on workforce competency, emphasizing its role in aligning academic curricula with industry demands. Structured mentorship, effective feedback systems, and strengthened industry–academia collaboration are essential for optimizing training effectiveness. Limitations: The study is limited to a specific geographic context (Iran) and sector (polytechnic institutions), which may restrict generalizability. In addition, reliance on self-reported data may introduce response bias. Future studies should apply longitudinal designs and examine diverse industrial settings. Contributions: This study contributes to the literature on workforce development and knowledge management by providing empirical evidence on how industrial training bridges theory–practice gaps, strengthens competency development, and supports sustainable industry–academia partnerships.
