This study aims to investigate the impact of digital capabilities on business model innovation, and emphasizes the pivotal mediating role of dynamic capabilities, comprising sensing, seizing, and reconfiguring resources, in translating digital strengths into innovative business models. And also uncovers a nuanced perspective on organizational inertia, showcasing its potential to positively moderate the relationship between digital capabilities and business model innovation. A questionnaire-based, time-lagged study with a 1-week interval. From January 2023 to March 2023, we collected a total of 262 questionnaires from entrepreneurs located in the Pearl River-West River Economic Belt, such as Guangzhou and Nanning, China. To analyse the moderation and mediation model, we utilized The PROCESS Model 5. Digital capabilities have a positive impact on the innovation of enterprises’ business models. Moreover, the connection between digital capabilities and business model innovation is mediated by dynamic capability. The findings also illustrate that organisational inertia moderates the relationship between digital capabilities and business model innovation. This study contributes to the existing literature on enterprise sustainable development by shedding light on the mediating and moderating mechanisms through which digital capabilities enhance business model innovation in enterprises. These findings offer valuable insights for enterprises aiming to thrive in dynamic markets, emphasizing the importance of a balanced approach to digital innovation, and instrumental for entrepreneurs seeking to refine their organisational strategies, particularly by bolstering their digital capabilities.

This research studies the mediating effect of employee’s social capital on job crafting and job performance, and the moderating effect of core self-evaluation on social capital and job performance. This research will help Guangxi enterprises, against the background of “One Belt One Road”, to improve their competitiveness through rational human resource management. A questionnaire survey was conducted, using the convenience sampling method, on 438 employees in Guangxi enterprises, and data analysis was performed using Amos, Smart-PLS and SPSS. The results of the hierarchical linear regression analysis show that social capital partly mediates the effect of job crafting on job performance, and core self-evaluation moderates the effect of social capital on job performance. However, the impact of social capital on job performance cannot be tested by SEM.

The China’s economy is developing rapidly, and it affects the environment on several levels. Therefore, this study examines the effect of environmental management accounting, green human resource management (HRM), on green organisational behaviour (OB). We collected 383 questionnaires completed by human resource managers and accounting managers in the Chinese hospitality industry. We used a covariance-based structural equation model to test the hypotheses in this study. The empirical evidence shows a positive and significant effect between environmental management accounting (monetary environmental management accounting, and physical environmental management accounting) and green HRM (β = 0.262, p < 0.01, β = 0.378, p< 0.01). Green HRM mediates the influence of environmental management accounting (monetary environmental management accounting, β = 0.059, p < 0.01; physical environmental management accounting, β = 0.084, p< 0.01) on green OB. The analysis confirmed the importance of environmental management accounting (as opposed to green human resource management) in predicting green behaviour and the critical role of green human resource management in connecting environmental management accounting and green OB. Thus, this study extends the literature’s perspective on green OB to environmental management accounting and green HRM.

Purpose: Drawing on the motivation theory, this study investigated the effect and consequences of personal motivation and innovative climate on innovative behavior among university students in mainland China. The study also examined whether the effect of personal motivation and innovative climate on Chinese university students’ innovative behavior is heterogeneous between disciplines and place of residence. Methods: A quantitative study was conducted to test the hypotheses. Data were collected from 245 undergraduate students at Chinese universities with paper-based questionnaires. Self-report scales were used to measure levels of personal motivation, innovative climate, and innovative behaviors. A confirmatory factor analysis was used to test the scale and questionnaire’s reliability and validity. The logistic model was applied to analyze the data and test the hypotheses. Results: Personal motivation and innovative climate have significant effects on Chinese university students’ innovative behavior. The effect of personal motivation and innovative climate on students’ innovative behavior is heterogeneous between disciplines and place of residence. Further, extrinsic motivation serves as a positive incentive. Mentor support, good academic climate, and knowledge sharing affect students’ innovative behavior positively. However, insufficient guaranteed resources has a significant negative influence. The data demonstrated no statistically significant difference between intrinsic motivation and students’ innovative behavior. Conclusion: This study contributes to the empirical literature on mechanisms that influence innovative behavior by testing the relation between personal motivation, innovative climate, and innovative behavior on the part of Chinese university students. In addition, these findings also provide evidence for ways to improve university students’ innovative consciousness and innovative ability, as well as universities’ management practice of innovative education.

Purpose: Employee health is a major challenge for enterprises. Fostering a healthy work environment and promoting employee engagement are key to addressing this challenge. Health-promoting leadership and employee health are the driving forces of corporate development; at the same time, employability is the core element of employee relations. Based on self-determination theory, this study aims to explore the effects of health-promoting leadership and employee health on employee engagement in light of employee employability.Design/methodology/approach: The data of this study encompass 723 valid questionnaires from employees of MSME in China. This study focuses on health-promoting leadership and employee health, engagement relationship and the above relationship moderating by employability.Findings: Health-promoting leadership plays a key role in the workplace, results show that health-promoting leadership has a positive impact on employee health and employee engagement, while employee health did not have a positive effect on employee engagement. Employability negatively moderated the relationship between employee health and employee engagement.Research limitations/implications: This study is based on cross-sectional survey data collected at the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic rapidly and continuously changed the organizational responses to employee health. Future studies could utilize longitudinal methods or focus on measurement instruments of the culture of health, to create additional insights about health promoting.Originality/value: This study adds important knowledge regarding health-promoting leadership and employee health in Chinese MSMEs, an area for which limited research exists. The findings provide insights and knowledge about health-promoting leadership how to affect employee health and to improve engagement outcomes. The findings also identify the moderating role of employability.
