自利型领导会阻碍员工绿色行为吗?——环境责任感、自利动机和组织伦理氛围的作用

Will Self-interested Leadership Hinder Employee Green behavior?——The role of Environmental Responsibility,Self-interested Motivation,and Organizational Ethical Climate

立足酒店行业,聚焦员工绿色行为中“对他人有利却需自身付出成本”的逻辑矛盾特征,探讨消极领导风格——自利型领导是否以及如何阻碍了员工实施绿色行为。引入员工的环境责任感和自利动机作为平行中介,探讨员工“利他”和“利己”两极分化特征在以上关系研究中的影响机制,并且关注组织伦理氛围的条件作用。借鉴社会信息加工理论,构建多层次被调节的中介模型,对我国酒店企业107个团队及其369个员工的有效配对数据进行实证分析,结果表明:员工的环境责任感、自利动机在自利型领导和员工绿色行为之间起中介作用;组织伦理氛围对自利型领导与员工的环境责任感(自利动机)之间的关系有负向调节作用,也通过员工的环境责任感(自利动机)对自利型领导与员工绿色行为的间接影响起负向调节作用。结论为酒店管理者促进员工的绿色行为决策提供实践启示,即培养酒店员工的环境责任感,降低其自利动机,营造符合酒店绿色规范的伦理氛围,抑制领导者在组织中的自利型领导风格,是提高员工绿色行为的关键。

Based on the hospitality industry,this research focuses on the logical contradictory characteristics of employee green behavior of"benefiting others but at their own expense",and explores whether and how self-interested leadership,a negative leadership style,hinders employees from implementing green behaviors.To further explore this issue,this study introduces employees'environmental responsibility and self-interested motivation as parallel mediators,explores the influence mechanisms of employees'"altruistic and egoistic"polarization characteristics in the above relationship studies,and focuses on the conditional role of organizational ethical climate in the relationship between self-interested leadership and employee green behavior.Drawing on social information processing theory,this study constructs a multi-level moderated mediation model.The empirical analysis of 107 hotel teams and 369 employees in several hotel enterprises in China shows that employees'environmental responsibility and self-interested motivation play an intermediary role between self-interested leadership and employee green behavior.The organizational ethical climate has a negative regulatory effect on the relationship between self-interested leadership and employees'environmental responsibility(self-interested motivation),and also has a negative regulatory effect on the indirect impact of self-interested leadership and employee green behavior through employees'environmental responsibility(selfinterested motivation).These results provide practical enlightenment for hotel managers to promote green behavior decision-making of employees in that strengthening hotel employees'environmental responsibility,weakening their self-interested motivation,creating an ethical climate in line with green norms,and restraining self-interested leadership style in the organization are key to enhancing employee green behavior.
