คำสำคัญ:
Team-Oriented Leadership, Employee Engagement, ESG Management, Organizational Sustainabilityบทคัดย่อ
This study examines the impact of team-oriented leadership and employee engagement on organizational sustainability, with a particular focus on the mediating role of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) management. As organizations face increasing pressure to integrate sustainability into their core strategies, effective leadership and employee commitment are essential for achieving long-term resilience and responsible business practices. By analyzing data from the Corporate Business Development (CBD) unit of Central Group, this research explores how leadership styles and employee engagement contribute to sustainable outcomes. Utilizing SPSS for statistical analysis, the study finds that both team-oriented leadership and employee engagement significantly influence organizational sustainability. Moreover, ESG management acts as a partial mediator, reinforcing its role in strengthening the connection between leadership, engagement, and sustainability performance. These findings highlight the importance of adopting collaborative leadership approaches, fostering employee commitment, and embedding ESG principles into organizational frameworks. By providing insights into the interplay of these factors, this research recommends that organizations should strategically exhibit as well as foster the team-oriented leadership practices, actively engage employees, and integrate robust ESG management frameworks to drive long-term sustainability of their firms. By embedding these approaches, companies can strengthen resilience, build stakeholder trust, and secure a competitive edge in a rapidly evolving business environment.
