Top management green commitment and prenvironmental behavior: Mediating role of environmental knowledge application and moderating role of green mindfulness

The paper studies the effect of top management's green commitment (TMGC) and proenvironmental behavior (BEB) using the interaction effect of green mindfulness and the mediating effect of environmental knowledge application (EKA) using data collected from ready-made garment employees in Bangladesh. In this study, there were 121 supervisors and 328 subordinates in the subordinate-supervisor dyad. The partial least square-based structural equation modelling technique was used to test the hypotheses. The finding established that TMGC positively and significantly predicts employee task-related PEB. However, the relationship between TMGC and proactive PEB was supported in this study. Additionally, TMGC positively predicts PEB and employee EKA. Likewise, EKA significantly predicts employee task-related and proactive PEB. Green mindfulness moderates the relationship between TMGC and task-related PEB, such that a high degree of employee green mindfulness strengthens the link. However, green mindfulness did not moderate the relationship between TMGC and proactive PEB, as hypothesized. With regards to mediation, EKA partially mediates the relationship between TMGC and taskrelated PEB. Surprisingly, EKA was not found to be a mediator between TMGC and proactive PEB.
