Advancing sustainable development goals through green inclusive leadership in hospitality industry: a dual study perspective
Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Implementing green innovation is paramount for the luxury hospitality industry in accomplishing its sustainable development goals (SDGs). Therefore, identifying the key drivers that enable green innovation (GI) is essential for promoting sustainable development. Existing literature on luxury hospitality management has overlooked exploring the key factors that drive green innovation. This study leverages the natural resource-based view to examine the mediating roles of green dynamic capability and green environmental orientation in the relationship between green inclusive leadership (GIL) and green innovation. The research further examines the effect of GI on a hotel's environmental performance and a hotel's green image. The theoretical model was evaluated through two distinct studies focusing on Italian employees in the hospitality sector. The findings underscore the significance of GIL practices with environmental initiatives to promote sustainable GI. Expanding the GI debate offers compelling insights that might help hotel professionals make informed strategic decisions contributing to SDGs.
