Sustainability‐Oriented Leadership and Business Strategy: Examining the Roles of Procedural Environmental Justice and Job Embeddedness
研究了可持续导向领导力如何通过程序环境正义和工作嵌入影响员工的组织环保行为，为管理者提升企业环境绩效提供参考。
ABSTRACT Organizations are progressively focusing on their sustained growth by designing and implementing environmentally friendly policies. However, their environmental performance depends on their employees' proenvironmental behavior and the firm's sustainability policies. Previous research has provided evidence that environmentally specific servant leadership, transformational leadership, ethical leadership, spiritual leadership, and charismatic (value‐based) leadership enhance employee organizational citizenship behavior toward the environment (OCBE). However, limited research examines the role of sustainability‐oriented leadership (SOL) in maturing employees' OCBE. This research examines the SOL–employee OCBE linkage mediated through mechanisms like perceived environmental justice and affective commitment to one's supervisor under varying permutations of employee job embeddedness (EJE). More specifically, this paper examines SOL's direct, indirect, and moderated effects on OCBE through perceived environmental justice and employee commitment toward the leader under disparate EJE levels. The empirical findings confirm a direct impact of SOL on employees' OCBE. It was also evident that SOL significantly and indirectly influences employees' OCBE through procedural environmental justice under disparate levels of job embeddedness. The paper advances academic and managerial understanding on OCBE proliferate in organization. Besides enriching literature, the study's findings provide valuable insights to organizations seeking to enhance OCBE through fostering SOL, PEJ, and EJE.
