This research aimed to explore the relationship of leadership styles, i.e. Transformational and transactional leadership styles with KM effectiveness in the presence of organizational moderation structure. To achieve the purpose of the study, we collect the data from faculty members (i.e. lecturer to professor) of all public sector universities located in Islamabad. The data were collected through adopted Likert type scale. Scale reliability and validity were ensured. We received a total of 300 valid responses out of 400 distributed sample with a response rate of 75%. The results revealed that transformational leadership has a significant association with KM effectiveness and transactional leadership has an insignificant relationship with KM effectiveness. Furthermore, we also found that organizational structure moderated the relationship of transformational leadership and KM effectiveness and did not moderate in the case of transactional leadership style and KM effectiveness. Limitations, recommendations and implications are also highlighted.
