Abstract

This research aims at exploring how the moderating effects of Islamic business ethics on organizational support of Malaysian residential project performance. Based on the theory of Project Management Success, Organizational support includes top management support and project organizational structure. A total of 185 respondents representative of residential developers have been selected to participate as the sample. The results show that the moderating effect of business ethics positively moderates the organizational support-housing project performance relationships. In addition, the organization support factors were also found to have a significant correlation with the performance of the residential project. In sum, Islamic business ethics is the partial moderator of the relationships. Thus, further research may consider finding practical reasons why it is so by reviewing extensive literature, or collecting a larger sample for example.
