Abstract

The implementation of green initiatives by hospitality employees can significantly enhance the environmental sustainability of hospitality firms. However, there is a lack of research exploring the mechanisms influencing hospitality employees’ green innovative work behavior (GIWB). Through the mediation paths of green soft talent management (GSTM) and green hard talent management (GHTM), this study seeks to investigate how entrepreneurial leadership promotes GIWB. The data from 366 employees and managers in Pakistan’s hospitality industry were collected through a survey method using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings reveal that the effects of entrepreneurial leadership on GIWB, the direct effects of GSTM and GHTM, and the interaction effects between entrepreneurial leadership and GIWB are substantial. Based on the upper echelons theory and the resource-based view concept, this study extends research on the leadership–GIWB macro nexus and increases our understanding of the mechanisms behind employee GIWB, particularly in the hospitality setting.

创业领导力与绿色创新工作行为：从双重理论视角看绿色软硬人才管理的作用

酒店业员工实施绿色倡议可以大大提高酒店业企业的环境可持续性。然而，目前缺乏对酒店业员工绿色创新工作行为（GIWB）影响机制的研究。本研究试图通过绿色软人才管理（GSTM）和绿色硬人才管理（GHTM）的中介路径，探讨创业型领导力如何促进 GIWB。研究采用偏最小二乘结构方程模型（PLS-SEM），通过调查方法收集了巴基斯坦酒店业 366 名员工和管理人员的数据。研究结果表明，企业领导力对 GIWB 的影响、GSTM 和 GHTM 的直接影响以及企业领导力与 GIWB 之间的交互影响都很大。基于高层理论和基于资源的观点，本研究扩展了有关领导力与 GIWB 宏观关系的研究，加深了我们对员工 GIWB 背后机制的理解，尤其是在酒店业。
