Interrelations Between Ethical Leadership, Green Psychological Climate, and Organizational Environmental Citizenship Behavior: A Moderated Mediation Model.

ABSTRACT: Synthesizing theories of ethical leadership, psychological climate, pro-environmental behavior, and gender, first, we proposed and tested a model linking supervisors' ethical leadership and organizational environmental citizenship behavior via a green psychological climate. Then, we tested the moderating effect of gender on the indirect (via a green psychological environment) relationship between supervisors' ethical leadership and organizational environmental citizenship behavior. Time-lagged (three waves, 2 months apart) survey data were collected from 447 employees in various manufacturing and service sector firms operating in China. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling, bootstrapping, and multigroup techniques to test the hypothesized relationships. The results showed a positive relationship between employee ratings of supervisors' ethical leadership and organizational environmental citizenship behavior. Moreover, a green psychological climate mediates the relationship between supervisors' ethical leadership and organizational environmental citizenship behavior. Importantly, the multigroup analysis revealed that gender moderates the indirect relationship (via green psychological climate) between supervisors' ethical leadership and organizational environmental citizenship behavior. The study carries useful practical implications for policymakers and managers concerned about environmental sustainability.

Project description:In order to study the influence of different entrepreneurial psychological leadership styles on organizational learning ability and organizational performance and to provide theoretical basis for the improvement of organizational benefits of entrepreneurial enterprises in the future, 421 general managers, middle managers, and grassroots managers of 350 small- and medium-sized private enterprises in Beijing were surveyed by questionnaire in two forms: online and on-site. Then, a hypothesis model of the relationship between different entrepreneurial psychological leadership styles and organizational learning ability and organizational performance was constructed. The correlation between transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire psychological leadership styles and organizational performance and organizational learning ability was analyzed using multiple regression models. AMOS 7.0 software was used to simulate and verify the model. The results show that transformational psychological leadership style is positively correlated with organizational learning ability, financial performance, and growth performance; transactional psychological leadership style is positively correlated with organizational financial performance, growth performance, and organizational learning ability; there is no correlation between laissez-faire psychological leadership style and organizational financial performance and growth performance, but there is a significant positive correlation between laissez-faire psychological leadership style and organizational learning ability. The covariance between the error terms of the internal and external potential variables of the model is positive, and the factor load value of each potential variable and the observed variable is between 0.5 and 1, which shows that transformational and transactional psychological leadership styles have a more positive influence on organizational financial performance and learning ability than a laissez-faire psychological leadership style. The hypothesis model of the relationship between entrepreneurial psychological leadership styles and organizational learning ability and organizational performance conforms to the adaptation criteria and is feasible.

Project description:The aim of this study is to investigate the nexus between organizational citizenship behavior and psychological wellbeing and assess the moderating and mediating effects of emotional intelligence (EI) on the relationship betwem psychological wellbeing of IT-enabled Sector employees in Hyderabad. To measure the study variables of organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) and emotional intelligence (EI) on psychological wellbeing (PWB) data were gathered using a questionnaire. The mediating and moderating effects of emotional intelligence on the relationship between organizational citizenship behavior and psychological wellbeing was also assessed. The was reliable as indicated by the Cronbach's alpha coefficient statistic that between 0.79 to 0.91. Three hundred valid responses were considered for SEM analysis using AMOS, version 28. The model fit indices indicate excellent fit: CMIN/DF 2.788 CFI 0.935, IFI 0.937, TLI 0.921, NFI 0.923, RMSEA 0.054, SRMR 0.077 and PClose 0.092. The SEM analysis revealed that the impact of exogenous variables OCB and EI were statistically significant (p < 0.001) on endogenous variable psychological wellbeing of IT-enabled industry employees. Furthermore, EI partially mediates psychological wellbeing through the OCB of information technology employees. This empirical study also examined the moderating effects of EI on the psychological wellbeing of information technology-enabled employees through OCB. The slope analysis reveals that emotional intelligence strengthens the positive association between OCB and the PWB of IT-enabled sector employees. EI and OCB enhance PWB and employee performance. The findings of this study have several important implications for organizations in the IT sector and can be used to develop strategies for promoting OCB and EI among employees. The structural relationships between PWB and OCB in the context of hotel employees and reported positive effects of OCB on hotel employees are well documented. The limitations are the data were collected from the Information Technology employees of Hyderabad Metro. There are some subjectivity and cultural issues which were elaborated at the end. This empirical study helps to clarify the relationship between organizational citizenship behavior, psychological wellbeing, and the mediator and moderator variable emotional intelligence. The study also comprehends the available literature and adds value to the existing theoretical knowledge and behavioral studies. M10 M12, M19.
