Abstract

Regardless of the role of service-oriented leadership in co-creating green value for customers in the hospitality industry, this study aims to investigate how service-oriented leadership influences employees' service performance through green self-efficacy and shared vision, particularly in the hospitality sector. This study explores the multilevel moderating role of green shared vision in the relationship between green self-efficacy and employee service performance. We collected data from 545 hotel employees using time-lagged and multilevel structural equation modeling. The study results indicate that service-oriented leadership has a significant influence on employee service performance, which is mediated by green self-efficacy and a shared vision. Furthermore, the findings suggest that a shared green vision moderates the relationship between green self-efficacy and employee service performance, thereby enhancing employee service performance. The study provides theoretical insights, practical implications, and valuable recommendations for managers in the hospitality sector.
