Green inclusive leadership and green creativity in the tourism and hospitality sector: serial mediation of green psychological climate and work engag…
2021
Green creativity contributes to green innovation and green sustainability in both the manufacturing and services sectors.

The model not only posits the direct associations but also accommodates a more complex interaction of variables by anticipating the mediation effect of GPC and GWE on the ass…

Is Leader Developing Behavior related to Employees' Health Complaints? A Multilevel Investigation
2020
The goals of this study were to ascertain whether a specific leadership behavior (developing subordinates) is related to employees' health complaints and determine some of the underlying mechanisms involved. The hypothesized relationships were investigated in a sample composed of 538 employees working in 170 work-units of a public regional health service. Multilevel structural equation modeling was used to estimate the hypothesized relationships at the individual and work-unit levels. Results obtained at the individual level showed, as expected, that leader developing behavior was negatively related to employees' health complaints through two mediators: organizational commitment and emotion…

The inclusion criteria were 19–23 years of age, female or male gender, mild to moderate acne, no dermatological treatment within last 12 months, and no hormonal contraception (women).
