The purpose of this paper is to identify how innovation at the individual level innovative work behavior (IWB) and at the organizational level innovative organizational climate (IOC) affects the chances of success of a particular project. Additionally, the moderating effect of gender and work culture on the relation between innovative climate and behavior is tested in the study.Design/methodology/approachSurvey technique was used to collect data from 425 employees working in project departments at the executive, middle level and senior level management in the paint manufacturing industry of Pakistan. Multiple regression, as well as Preacher and Hayes (2004) tests, were applied to test the hypotheses.FindingsThe result of the data analysis showed that IWB acts as a mediator between IOC and project success (PS), thereby supporting the hypothesized model of innovation and PS. Work culture was supported as a moderator; however, no moderating effect of gender was validated by the results.Research limitations/implicationsThe management must make sure that to maximize the rate of success of projects, innovative work climate within the organizations and departments be given due importance. In addition to this, personnel’s individual innovation capabilities must also be enhanced by taking steps toward improvement through training and development.Originality/valueThough attention has been given to research in innovation in light of other related variables, its relation to PS remains yet to be studied. The effect of gender and work culture on innovation in Pakistani paint industry was long over-due which has been addressed by this study. 2020 artículo científico 2515-8961 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=537565799004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5375/537565799004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5375/537565799004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5375/537565799004/537565799004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5375/537565799004/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5375 Innovation & Management Review application/pdf Universidade de São Paulo Innovation & Management Review (Brasil) Num.4 Vol.17
