Abstract: The purpose of this study is to examine project performance through the sequential mediation of value co-creation and stakeholder satisfaction, as well as the moderate mediation of stakeholder management in construction companies. The data were collected from project-based organizations using a non-probabilistic, convenience sampling technique. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling in Smart PLS V. 4. The results suggest that there is a positive and significant association between agile leadership and project performance. Value co-creation and stakeholder satisfaction both separately and sequentially mediate the association between agile leadership and project performance. It was also revealed that stakeholder management moderates this mediation, such that the relationship between agile leadership and project performance is stronger when stakeholder management is high. The implications for theoretical body of knowledge and practices are aligned with stakeholder theory.
