“…Recent research studies have suggested that greening SMEs can assist businesses in lowering carbon pollution, waste storage, and power consumption (Bai et al, 2017 ; Awan et al, 2019 ; Ojo et al, 2019 ). As a result, the focus of research in academic and industrial fields is shifting from a broad discussion to a specific topic, which is of greening certain functional departments, green finance (Przychodzen et al, 2018 ), such as green innovation and green creativity (Zailani et al, 2015 ; Awan et al, 2019 ), and green human resource management and the practices (Yong et al, 2019 ; Shah et al, 2020 ).…”

For countries and organizations to achieve sustainable development, radical green creativity is required. Despite the fact that the influencing elements of green creativity have received a lot of attention, there is little research on the antecedents of green creativity. The current study attempted to fill the gap by exploring the underlying mechanism of green thinking and green organizational identity as mediators. This study aimed to examine the impact of green transformational leadership on green creativity through mediators, such as green thinking and creative organizational identity in SMEs. We gathered data from 460 respondents from SMEs operating in Pakistan using a survey questionnaire. The findings revealed that green transformational leadership had a significant impact on green organizational identity, which cultivated green creativity in SMEs. Additionally, results portrayed that green organizational identity performed mediation in the relationship between green transformational leadership and green creativity. Moreover, green thinking mediates the association between green transformational leadership and green creativity. This study offers novel insights into how to stimulate green transformational leadership and cognitive processes in SMEs to encourage green creativity. The implications for management and practitioners are discussed in light of the study's findings.

“…The results of this study confirm earlier findings supporting the ever-increasing relevance of innovation leadership. In line with Kozioł-Nadolna [4] and Shah et al [6], Michelin-starred chefs consider an innovative leadership style to be the core competence for a competitive advantage, as it enhances the performance of the employees, and thus the market performance of the restaurant. However, it is essential to always align IL with the needs of the customers [4] to satisfy them.…”

This study considers relationships among leadership styles and skills (sustainability leadership, innovation leadership and sustainable innovation) as drivers of sustainable innovation capability in the Michelin-starred restaurant context. The study used semi-structured qualitative interviews with a sample of nine chefs in Germany. The purpose was to examine the impact of sustainability and leadership on the innovation management of Michelin-starred chefs and to determine crucial aspects impacting haute cuisine innovations. Following earlier research, the findings indicate that a holistic view of sustainability is held by high-end chefs in this sector with considerations for the four main pillars (environmental, social, economic, cultural). Leadership style was seen as key to innovation management in the haute cuisine context. However, the interviews revealed that the issue of environmental sustainability was perceived to be of lessor significance when considering innovations in haute cuisine, due to customer expectations and insufficient legislation or government incentives. The external factors of market demand, involvement by a variety of stakeholders, and guest values/needs were viewed as key determinants of innovation type, success and directions. The internal factors of fitting with the business vision, brand loyalty of consumers, and employee skills and engagement were identified as key drivers of innovation decisions and success.
