The impact of employees' pro-environmental behaviors on corporate green innovation performance: The mediating e ect of green organizational identity.

Employees' behaviors, as well as the employees' pro-environmental behaviors (PEB), a ect the company in many dimensions. Although green innovation performance (GIP) has become an important measurement of a corporate's green development, research investigating PEB from the employees' perspective remains scarce, especially in emerging markets. Therefore, in this study, we developed an original framework to explore the e ects of employees' PEB on corporate GIP and examined the underlying mechanism by conducting a survey in China. The results of the empirical analysis showed that employees' PEB increases corporate GIP by positively influencing green organizational identity (GOI). In addition, we also proved how leaders' PEB positively influences GIP, whereas innovation resistance (both technology resistance and resource resistance) has a negative e ect on GIP. This study attempted to contribute to theoretical research and practical decision-making in the field of green organizational behavior. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
