description | Abstract This study examined the link among environmentally conscious organizational citizenship behavior (OCBE) and responsible leadership among 167 management-level workers in manufacturing plants of arts industry in a developing economy. The study explored the impact of responsible leadership on OCBE, both directly and indirectly through colleague exchange. It also explored the role of a green organizational environment, employee goal orientation, and supervisory support in regulating the link between coworker exchange and OCBE. The findings indicated that responsible leadership held a substantial and favorable influence on organizational citizenship behavior and that this link was mediated via colleague interchange. Workers who exhibited high degrees of goal orientation and were exposed to a sustainable work environment exhibited higher organizational citizenship behavior towards the environment (OCBE), suggesting a connection between colleague contact and OCBE. However, the support from supervisors did not have any moderating effect on this association. The study offers practical and management insights into how to encourage eco-behavior in the workplace. |
