Green Transformational Leadership As A Driver Of Green Technological Innovations: The Mediating Roles Of Green Strategic Capability, Organizational Green Management, And R&D Green Innovation Capability In The Manufacturing Industry Of Oman

Abstract

Through Resource-Based View (RBV) this research examines how green transformational leadership (GTL) impacts green technological innovations (GTI) in Oman's manufacturing industry. Our research analyses mediating roles of organizational green strategic capability (OGSC), organizational green management (OGM), and R&D green innovation capability as they link GTL to GTI. This research used 400 survey results to examine GTL's impact on GTI through PLS-SEM. Our research shows that GTL leads to GTI through effective mediators. Strategic planning through OGSC and systematic OGM helps companies reach green targets just as R&D Green Innovation Capability drives sustainable product development through new scientific research. The research shows that green leadership helps organizations develop the right capabilities to support innovative work. Our study connects leadership and innovation research with environmental practice to grow our knowledge base. This study shows that organizations need to build leadership and operational abilities to reach their sustainability targets successfully. Green leadership development helps organizations build better capabilities which help drive innovation to tackle environmental challenges.
