Abstract

The pressure on businesses to be environmentally conscious and focus on sustainable development is accruing due to environmental challenges. Companies are adopting ecological practices and policies to improve their environmentally friendly performance. To achieve this, organizations must substantiate and change the behavior of workers to align their behavior with the organization's ecological objectives. The study endeavors to integrate research on the responsible style of leaders and green behaviors of employees (in-role and extra-role green behaviors) through the mediation of green shared vision and analyze the moderation mechanism of individual green values. For collecting the data, a questionnaire-based survey was conducted among MBA executive program students with at least a year of experience in manufacturing. Out of the 450 questionnaires distributed, only 307 useful responses were obtained. The collected data has been analyzed using SPSS and AMOS. Ethical standards were followed, and participants were assured that their responses would be confidential. The study found that responsible leadership positively impacts green behaviors among employees. This means that when leaders within an organization demonstrate responsible and environmentally conscious behavior, it tends to encourage employees to engage in green behaviors. The study also discovered that a "green shared vision" partially mediates the relationship between responsible leadership and in-role green behavior. In contrast, green shared vision does not mediate the relation between responsible leadership and extra role green behavior. Moreover, this study also finds that the relationship between green shared vision and in-role and extra-role green behavior is strengthened when individual green values moderate it. The study highlights the importance of responsible leadership and the role of green shared values and individual green values in promoting environmentally friendly behavior in the workplace.
