The mediating impact of green self-efficacy and green mindfulness in the relationship between green shared vision and green creativity among the manufacturing firms in Thai sports Industry

Abstract

The main objective of the current study is to examine the impact of green self-efficacy, green mindfulness and green shared vision on the green creativity among the manufacturing firms in Thai sports Industry. In addition to that, the mediating impact of green self-efficacy and green mindfulness in the relationship between green shared vision and green creativity among the manufacturing firms in Thai sports Industry is also examined. There is need to fill this research gap. It has been proposed in this study that there are three novel constructs including green mindfulness, green shared vision, and green self-efficacy. An integral framework has been developed to define the association among the variables and their implications. Companies, which lie in the environmentalism context, have to consider green creativity. The manufacturing firm's Thai sports industry are chosen as a sample of the study and the SEM-PLS is used to analyse the data. The findings of the study have provided support to the proposed results. The findings revealed that the when companies aim at increasing their green creativity, it is required to increase their shared vision. When companies aim at improving green creativity, it is required to increase green mindfulness. It has been indicated by the results that a significant mediation effect is created by green mindfulness, which directly affects green creativity in a positive through green mindfulness. A novel concept has been developed in this study, which is green mindfulness, to explore the implications. The previous studies have analysed the issues of shared vision, but this has not been explored regarding environmental management.

Assessing the Relationship between Market Orientation and Green Product Innovation: The Intervening Role of Green Self-Efficacy and Moderating Role of Resource Bricolage

“…In addition, GSE as mediator mediates the relationship of MO and GPI positively and significantly (β = 0.224, t = 2.676, p < 0.000) (Table 6). The results of this study have consistency with past studies [9,30,36,45,47,48]. Figure 3 shows the moderation effect of RB on the relationship of MO and GPI.…”

“…Moreover, from the mediation test, results describe that green self-efficacy mediates market orientation and green product innovation positively and significantly. Green self-efficacy helps the employees of the firms to be selfconfident about green innovation [49]; hence, H4 of the study is supported along with showing consistency with past research [47]. Resource bricolage plays a significant role for the firms and employees to innovate sustainably with the limited/existing resources at hand.…”

“…In green product innovation, green self-efficacy emerged as a new thought in the environmental issues, defining the confidence in the aptitude of the person to start up and implement environment-related goals [47]. Green self-efficacy assists the conception of novel thoughts concerning green procedures, green facilities, green goods, and green practices [48], reflecting useful, unique, and original ways to tackle environmental issues [49].…”

“…Green self-efficacy assists the conception of novel thoughts concerning green procedures, green facilities, green goods, and green practices [48], reflecting useful, unique, and original ways to tackle environmental issues [49]. In green initiatives, green management plays a central part to improve green procedures; however, green self-efficacy play a mediating role in green innovation and green performance [46,47]. This study, therefore, contributes more empirical results about the mediating effect of green self-efficacy.…”

A Conceptual Model for Pro-Environmental Behaviour in Malaysian Educational Context

“…Green self-efficacy is predominantly significant in integrating behaviour/personality traits along with environmental aspects and, therefore, remains an influential factor to increase intentions of individuals to practice PEB. Hence, green self-efficacy emerged as a new thought in environmental issues, defining confidence in a person's aptitude to start up and implement environment-related goals (Aeknarajindawat et al, 2019).…”
