Impact of Green Transformational Leadership on Eco- Friendly Behavior and Environmental performance of Hotel Industry Employees: The Mediating Role of GHRM

Abstract

Based on the famous resource-based view (RBV) and the ability motivation-opportunity (AMO) theory, it has been evident that the concept of green human resource management (GHRM) correlates with green transformational leadership, eco-friendly behavior of employees and hotel environment-based performance. Using questionnaire tool, a collected triadic data of 260 employees of hotels and restaurants using convenience sample approach was executed. We used Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) to explore hypotheses mentioned in this study. Conclusions drawn from the study recommend that green HRM acts a mediator between the green transformational leadership and employees’ eco-friendly behavior. The findings of current research suggest that GTFL signifies a pivotal role as an antecedent of the GHRM to enhance employee eco-friendly behavior and hotels’ environmental performance.
