Abstract :Existing literature has overlooked the mediating role of green absorptive capacity in the correlation between green transformational leadership and green innovation. The present study aimed to explore how Chief Executive Officers’ (CEOs) green transformational leadership impacted green innovation through green absorptive capacity. Data were collected from 258 companies in the textile industry in Turkey by survey method. The data were analyzed with the SmartPLS analysis program. The results clarify that green absorptive capacity has a mediating role in the relationship between green transformational leadership and green innovation and indicate a new way to promote green innovation in organizations.
