Today, scholars and practitioners increasingly recognise sustainable leadership as a powerful way to address sustainability challenges. This study examines how sustainable leadership (SL) influences sustainable performance (SP) by exploring the mediating roles of organisational learning (OL) and psychological safety (PS).
Questionnaire surveys were used to collect data from 315 employees working in different industries in Oman. Structural equation modelling (SEM-PLS) was used to analyse the data.
The results revealed a positive relationship between SL and both OL and PS. Furthermore, OL and PS are positively related to SP. Finally, OL and PS positively mediated the relationship between SL and SP.
This study emphasises the significance of SL in promoting sustainability through OL and PS in emerging economies, such as Oman.
Developing leaders who prioritise sustainability, promote OL, and foster PS can significantly enhance employees’ commitment to sustainability goals. These actions enable organisations to build resilience and achieve long-term economic, social, and environmental benefits.
