Abstract

Amongst escalating environmental challenges, organizations are increasingly adopting leadership approaches that advance sustainability-oriented outcomes. This study investigates the influence of Green Servant Leadership (GSL) on Green Innovation (GI), emphasizing the mediating role of Tacit Green Knowledge (TK) and the moderating effect of Organizational Green Culture (OC). Drawing on empirical data collected from China's manufacturing sector and employing structural equation modeling via SmartPLS, the results demonstrate that GSL significantly fosters TK, which subsequently promotes GI. Furthermore, the moderation analysis indicates that OC positively strengthens the relationship between GSL and TK (β = 0.121, T = 3.562, p < 0.001), suggesting that the impact of green leadership on knowledge-sharing behaviors is amplified in organizations that cultivate a strong green culture. This moderated mediation effect implies that organizational culture not only enhances the dissemination of tacit green knowledge but also strengthens the indirect influence of leadership on innovation.
