    Nowadays, there are now more women on the management team. In the past, only men could participate in certain roles, board meetings, and decision making. However, the number of women in leadership positions remains low, making it difficult for women to advance in the firm. Leadership is very broad concept which various theories and styles is exist; where women leadership behaviour just one part of the leadership and can be defined in different ways. Furthermore, the research of women leadership behaviour has a restricted number of sources. Thus, the primary goal of the study is to identify the elements that contribute to women leadership behaviour, specifically the association between Work Life Balance (WLB), Personality, and Emotional Intelligence (EI) toward Women Leadership Behaviour among Malaysian engineers. This study employed a basic random sample strategy to obtain data from 391 Malaysian engineers. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23, was used to test the data. All hypotheses were accepted as a result of the test. This research is important because it can assist practitioners and organisations prioritise workforce diversity toward women leaders and the capacity to persuade Human Resources Specialists to properly organised a diverse workforce. Furthermore, the number of women leaders may be expanded in the future, and the diversity problem in our society can be improved, allowing Malaysia to meet the SDGs.

    This conceptual study examines the influence of self-efficacy, soft skills, and personality traits on graduate employability among final-year students in Malaysian Technical University Network institutions, with emotional intelligence as a moderating factor. Employability is conceptualized as the capacity to secure, maintain, and adapt to employment in dynamic workplace environments. The research adopts a quantitative approach, leveraging Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to explore direct and moderating effects within a proposed framework. Data from a sample of 370 undergraduate students across four Malaysian Technical University Network institutions were analyzed, incorporating descriptive statistics and hypothesis testing. The framework positions emotional intelligence—defined as the ability to recognize, understand, and regulate emotions—as a critical moderator that enhances the impact of core attributes on perceived employability. Findings are anticipated to highlight the key competencies that drive employability, offering actionable insights for curriculum development and targeted educational interventions. This study aims to inform policies and practices in higher education, ensuring graduates are better equipped to meet labor market demands and succeed in their professional careers.
