Previous literature showed that greening efforts as a sustainability practice has
been extensively deliberated to explore and identify its relationship with
sustainability performance. Despite extensive prior studies, the implementation of
sustainability practices remains arguable in business operation. Some scholars
suggested that accomplishment in sustainability practices are dependent on a few
factors such as environmental value, environmental leadership, and stakeholder
participation. However, from the perspective of the top management, mainly the
owners of casual dining restaurants, these practices remain inadequate in
understanding the green service delivery process. Also, top management plays a
crucial role in implementing decisions in sustainability performance through their
commitment to the green service delivery efforts.
Hence, this study is expected to provide an understanding of the green service
delivery process by predicting its influencing factors,and examining the effects of
the green service delivery process on sustainability performance as well as
examining the mediating effect of its process variable. This study used naturalresources-
based view (NRBV) theory as its underpinning theory, supported by
value-belief-norm, upper echelons theory and stakeholder theory to explain the
influencing factors and mediating effects of the green service delivery process.
Data was collected over a period of six months from the top management of
independent casual dining restaurants, namely, the owner, CEO or general
manager. These restaurants are not affiliated with any national brand nor are they
in any franchise business arrangement. A convenience sampling technique was
utilized to hand-deliver five hundred questionnaires. Of the total 328
questionnaires returned, three hundred and eleven questionnaires were useable.
SmartPLS 3.0 was used to analyse the data and test the study hypotheses.
Results showed that environmental value, environmental leadership and
stakeholder participation are significantly positive on the green services delivery
process. Results also showed that the green services delivery process mediated
the relationship between environmental value, environmental leadership and
stakeholder participation and sustainability performance.
The findings further showed that the greening service effort through the green
service delivery process significantly affected sustainability performance. Hence,
these finding are important as a turning point for restaurateurs in the casual dining
restaurant which they can apply in their green service delivery process.
Furthermore, the mediating effect of the green services delivery process between
environmental value, environmental leadership and stakeholder participation and
sustainability performance showed a high need to promote robust greening efforts
to enhance understanding of sustainable development among top management
who are responsible in making crucial decisions in their business operations.
Therefore, the theoretical and practical contributions of this study are essential
given the actual results of the model. Also, the theoretical contributions extended
the present collaborative model. Finally, this study provided practical suggestions
on how green service delivery can influence sustainability performance among
casual dining restaurants and showed how businesses can apply sustainability
practices for better performance. |
