Table 7: CFA factor covariances. culture plays a significant role in determining project success. The covariance between effective management and project success is found to have a \(p\)-value of 0.039. This \(p\)-value suggests that there is a statistically significant relationship between effective management and project success. This means that there is evidence to support the idea that effective management has a notable impact on the success of a project. The covariance between employee engagement and project success was calculated to have a \(p\)-value of 0.014. This \(p\)-value suggests statistical significance, indicating that there is a meaningful and significant relationship between the factors. The \(p\)-value of 0.014 from the covariance analysis suggests a significant relationship between effective planning and project success. This indicates that there is a statistical association between effective planning and the successful outcome of projects.
