“…Likewise, green creativity skills and green task motivation are positively associated with GOIE, and both further exert a relatively medium and small positive influence on GOIE, consistent with extant studies (Ali et al, 2020;Awan et al, 2019;Baer, 2012;Li et al, 2020;. Our findings suggest that, among the predictors of GOIE in our study, green creativity skills exert a stronger positive influence on GOIE.…”

“…Green expertise and green task motivation are thus needed to drive the creative thinking process evidenced by exhibited green creativity skills to provoke green solutions that are fundamental to bolstering environmental sustainability (Ali et al, 2020;Chang & Chang, 2017).…”

“…CTOCI suggests that team members with relevant green expertise and motivation tend to be able to demonstrate resilience and prove resourceful in their defined green initiatives and innovation task domains (Amabile & Mueller, 2008; Cop et al, 2020; Junsheng et al, 2020). Green expertise and green task motivation are probable drivers organisations could leverage to foster green creativity skills (Ali et al, 2020; Chang & Chang, 2017). Similarly, green task‐motivated experts are usually a necessary catalyst for green creativity skills because in addition to being motivated (Ali et al, 2020).…”

“…Moreover, when examining human behaviour within organisations, from an environmental sustainability context, studies contend for the need for actors that mirror the environment—such as environmental dynamism—to be considered (Jansen et al, 2009; Ogbeibu, Emelifeonwu, et al, 2020). Nevertheless, the possible influence of environmental dynamism on green creativity skills and GOIE is a crucial factor that present related research and others continue to ignore (Ali et al, 2020; Cop et al, 2020). Consequently, we aim to simultaneously examine the distinct roles of LSC, green creativity and environmental dynamism on GOIE and how they respectively aid organisations to bolster green innovative evidence fundamental to advancing the achievement of the UN's SDGs.…”

Leveraging STARA competencies and green creativity to boost green organisational innovative evidence: A praxis for sustainable development

Radical technological advancements and the relentless progression of climate change compel organisations to ensure their workforce consistently exercise their creativity toward innovative green initiatives. These endeavours are essential to achieve the United Nations' (UN) sustainable development goals (SDGs). To do so, organisations require competencies fundamental to smart technologies, artificial intelligence, robotics and algorithms (STARA). STARA competencies are relevant for leaders to bolster green organisational innovative evidence (GOIE). GOIE can help to attract potential investors keen on advancing the UN's SDG agenda on environmental sustainability. However, eclipsed by a volatile environment, and despite the green innovation potential of several manufacturing organisations, investors are reluctant to invest and commit funds without evidence of green innovation. We therefore, investigate how leader STARA competence (LSC), green creativity components (task motivation, creativity skills and expertise) and environmental dynamism can aid organisations to boost their GOIE. Our key findings are as follows: (a) though green task motivation shows a stronger association with green creativity skills, LSC has a large influence on green creativity skills; (b) green creativity skills exert a strong influence on GOIE while also playing a competitive and complimentary mediating role in our model and (c) environmental dynamism is negatively associated with green creativity skills and GOIE. Furthermore, to validate indirect (v) effects size in mediation analysis, we propose a new and more approachable benchmark for v effect size estimations.Organisational and environmental policy implications are discussed.

“…The variance inflation factor (VIF) values show that there are no multicollinearity and/or common method bias issues in our model (Ali et al, 2020;, as the VIF value of each independent variable is less than 2 (Appendix), which is less than 3.3, the proposed indicator of common method bias (Petter et al, 2007). For further verification, basing ourselves on Kock (2015), we tested all the constructs with each other on Smart-PLS, because all the items are reflective.…”

This study investigates the influence of buyer-seller personality similarities on compulsive buying behaviour in a dyadic setting. To provide insights into the gaps in previous research, we collected both buyer and corresponding seller data, and considered sellers' personalities. Specifically, using difference score analyses and variance-based structural equation modelling, we analysed 1038 buyer-seller dyads in service encounters. Compared with the effects of individual buyers' personalities on compulsive buying, the combined personality results showed that buyer-seller agreeableness similarities increase the compulsive buying behaviour of agreeable buyers. On the other hand, buyer-seller similarities in openness and neuroticism reduce compulsive buying. A further analysis showed that buyer-seller interactions mediate the effect of their extraversion and openness similarities on compulsive buying, while buyers' shopping enjoyment mediates the effect of their extraversion and neuroticism similarities on compulsive buying. Overall, compulsive buyers have interpersonally different buying behaviours when their personalities match (differ) with their corresponding sellers'. Thus, marketers can match agreeable buyers with similar sellers to promote sales, while dissimilar sellers should be complemented with openminded and neurotic buyers, in particular, to reduce losses.

Grounded in the behavioral reasoning theory, this study aims to determine the impact that green brand awareness (GBA) and perceived green brand credibility (PGBC) have on consumers' choice behavior for green electronics in the context of an emerging country. Furthermore, by focusing on a novel perspective of expected eudaimonic well-being, the mediatory role of expected self-acceptance (ESA) and expected social contribution (ESC) and the moderating role of green altruism were empirically tested. Data were collected surveying 556 consumers from twin cities of
