Abstrakt
This study seeks to investigate the role of Saudi leaders in promoting their employees' understanding of green management techniques in Saudi public universities, as well as the problems they encounter in doing so. This text explores the techniques and initiatives employed by these leaders to advance environmental sustainability, as well as the organisational and cultural obstacles that may hinder these endeavours. This study used a structured questionnaire consisting of closed-ended questions, which may be rated on a Likert scale to assess the level of agreement with specific claims. The findings of this study demonstrate that regression models applied to female, male, and general datasets show substantial impacts of employee awareness, engagement, and organisational factors in green management on leadership initiatives, with varying degrees of influence depending on gender. The findings of this study can be advantageous to decision-makers in Saudi institutions, researchers, and academics. Moreover, this work has the potential to serve as a novel point of reference in the realm of green management for future applications.
