The focus of the article is to investigate the impact of paternalistic leadership performance of middle level managerial employees specifically of universities. For this purpose, we conducted cross sectional and correlational study on middle level managers of different universities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi region. The study population is comprised of 269 randomly selected respondents from different universities. Questionnaires include open ended and close ended questions. That was developed based on existing literature regarding employee performance and Job-related Affective Wellbeing. Employees’ performance was measured on task performance and contextual performance. After analysis, results indicate that Paternalistic leadership maintains a significant relationship with employees’ performance and paternalistic leadership is also significantly related with job related affective wellbeing. Furthermore, correlation results show that all the three variables have positive and significant association with each other. It is evident that job related affective wellbeing does moderate the relationship amongst paternalistic leadership and employees’ performance. At the end the study provides specific gaps for future research. Keywords: paternalistic leadership, employees’ performance, JAW, universities
