摘要

This study investigates the impact of ecocentric leadership on environmental performance in the Egyptian hospitality and tourism sector. It explores the mediating roles of green organizational learning, as well as the sequential mediation of digital green culture and green work engagement, grounded in the Resource-Based View (RBV) and Social Exchange Theory (SET). Data were collected from 404 middle-level managers working in five-star hotels and category-A travel agencies in Greater Cairo using a structured questionnaire. A non-probability convenience sampling method was employed. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to test the hypothesized relationships. Findings confirm that ecocentric leadership significantly enhances environmental performance, both directly and indirectly through digital green culture and green work engagement, indicating a clear sequential mediation pathway. Moreover, green organizational learning partially mediates the relationship between ecocentric leadership and digital green culture, and digital green culture positively affects green work engagement, while green work engagement positively influences environmental performance. Hospitality and tourism organizations should invest in ecocentric leadership development and promote a culture of green learning and engagement to improve environmental outcomes. This study provides an integrated model linking leadership, learning, culture, and engagement to sustainability performance based on RBV and SET, offering practical and theoretical contributions within an emerging market context like Egypt.
