Abstract

Companies are continually challenged to achieve aggressive growth goals in order to remain successful in the marketplace. Higher educational institutions (HEIs) may be essential to a nation's economic development in addition to spreading knowledge. academic institutions are significantly effective in gaining a competitive edge among worldwide educational institutions therefore, the present study proposes that by motivating innovative work behavior and taking care of employee workplace wellbeing, these institutes can flourish. As these factors may help an institution’s academic achievement and progress the study will examine the relationship between future work self and job-related outcomes (employee innovative work behavior and employee workplace wellbeing) explained the self-determination theory in this study, job involvement is acknowledged as the moderator in this study, with visionary leadership serving as the mediator. In this study cross-sectional data on 255 -Pakistani HEIs employees. The hypothesized model indicated that job participation influences the relationships between the future work self and employee creative work behaviour and workplace wellbeing. The study expands the factors that contribute to employee workplace wellness and emphasizes the importance of FWS in current Job-related results. We also discovered that visionary leadership improves the favourable association between future work self and job-related outcomes. This study based on self-determination theory shows the relation b/w FWS and EWB. self-regulatory theory shows FWS and IWB associated with JI mediation and VL Moderation.
