Abstract

This research is motivated by the low level of business sustainability in SMEs in the West Java food sector as viewed from economic, social, and environmental sustainability perspectives. The large role of leaders in food SMEs as entrepreneurs who control the pace of SMEs means this research focuses on the role of leadership in achieving sustainability for SMEs. This research aims to determine the practice of sustainable leadership in food SMEs and its influence on sustainable leadership and the sustainability of SMEs. This research was conducted using a quantitative approach with a survey method. The population is SME owners in the food sector in West Java. The sampling technique used is quota sampling in each SME work area in West Java. The number of samples was 234 food SME owners in West Java. The data analysis technique used is descriptive and correlational verification using SEM PLS. The results of this research reveal that sustainable leadership practices are especially demonstrated with the most evidence of ethical behavior, environmental responsibility, enabling culture, team orientation, and trust; moderate evidence were labor relations, success planning, and innovation; and the least evidence was developing people, valuing staff, organization culture, stakeholder orientation, and team orientation. Besides that, sustainable leadership practices influence the sustainability of SMEs in the food sector. The results of this research provide information about things that leaders must practice to achieve sustainability in SMEs.
