Abstract

Existing literature on environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) primarily focuses on outcomes, neglecting strategies to enhance its predictors. Drawing upon the competing values framework (CVF) and self-determination theory (SDT), this study investigates the interactive impact of transformational leadership (TFL) and two types of external-focused organizational cultures (OCs) on employee pro-environmental behaviors (PEBs) and subsequently ESG performance in the context of tourism and hospitality industry. By employing a time-lagged field investigation involving 57 Chinese hospitality organizations, this multilevel study draws several findings. First, TFL promotes PEBs among hospitality employees, which in turn contributes to enhanced ESG performance. Second, the adoption of an adhocracy culture in hospitality organizations can further enhance the positive impact of TFL on employee PEBs. Finally, this study also reveals the serial mediating roles of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, that is, psychological empowerment (PE) and perceived insider status (PIS), in the relationship between TFL and employee PEBs.

通过变革型领导力和员工环保行为提升旅游和酒店业组织的环境、社会和公司治理：组织文化的影响

有关环境、社会和公司治理（ESG）的现有文献主要关注结果，而忽视了加强其预测因素的策略。本研究借鉴了价值观竞争框架（CVF）和自我决定理论（SDT），以旅游业和酒店业为背景，探讨了变革型领导力（TFL）和两种以外部为中心的组织文化（OCs）对员工亲环境行为（PEBs）的交互影响，以及随之而来的ESG绩效。通过对 57 家中国酒店业组织的时滞实地调查，这项多层次研究得出了几项发现。首先，TFL 促进了酒店业员工的 PEBs，进而有助于提高 ESG 绩效。其次，酒店业组织采用民主文化可以进一步增强 TFL 对员工 PEBs 的积极影响。最后，本研究还揭示了内在动机和外在动机（即心理授权（PE）和感知内部人地位（PIS））在 TFL 与员工 PEBs 关系中的连续中介作用。
