“…Greige Frangieh and Khayr Yaacoub (2017) further explained that RL is an evolving concept at the juncture of studies in ethics, leadership and CSR. Putting these into perspectives, these views converge to the perspective that responsible leaders use their ethical reasoning and moral imagination to make moral decisions, consider their effects on others and use their powers to reach legitimate ends through acceptable means (Haque, 2021;James & Priyadarshini, 2021;Pless et al, 2021). However, it is also essential to be clear that ethics does not mean affiliating to spirituality or religiosity.…”

“…With its roots embedded in the fields of social-relational and ethics, RL has mushroomed considerably over the last decade, prompting the appearance of not only special issues and books but also systematic literature reviews and commentaries in various journals (e.g. Flocy, 2017;Greige Frangieh & Khayr Yaacoub, 2017;James & Priyadarshini, 2021;Marques, Reis, & Gomes, 2018;Miska & Mendenhall, 2015;Pless, Sengupta, Wheeler, & Maak, 2021).…”

The growing research on corporate responsibility and focus on sustainable business activities gave rise to responsible leadership (RL) research. With its roots embedded in social relations and ethics fields, the concept of RL has mushroomed considerably over the last decade. This research note serves as a central point to outline the current state of research into RL. Notably, we would summarize the evolution of RL and map it against the multiple levels of analysis. Based on this analysis, we would further delineate the key research gaps and future research directions that researchers could note.

“…Responsible leadership starts from being responsible for economic, social, and environmental aspects simultaneously. Literature reveals that responsible leadership positively impacts sustainability practices (Colley & Spyridonidis, 2022;James & Priyadarshini, 2021). Sustainable practices are essential for environmental performance and to save the planet.…”

Purpose: The current study assessed the function of responsible leadership in the banking industry using the stakeholder theory. The current study also looks into the connection between responsible leadership and task, contextual, and environmental performance. Methodology: The banking industry's 389 branch employees, including branch managers, business development officers, general banking officers, branch operation managers, cash officers, and relationship managers, were surveyed using a survey questionnaire approach to gather data. Mplus was used to analyze the data using the structural equation modeling method. Findings: The study's findings showed that ethical leadership had a direct influence on a firm's environmental (0.204), task (0.365), and contextual performance (0.188), as well as indirect effects through varied sustainability policies. Implications: it implies the significance of sustainable policies concerning responsible leadership and a company's success. The current study is a pioneering effort that added to the body of knowledge on the relationship between organizational tasks, contextual performance, and environmental performance in Pakistan's banking industry. It also evaluated the role of sustainability strategies in the interim.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a universally accepted measurement scale of Responsible Leadership (RL) based on the triple bottom approach (3BL) which covers environmental, economic, and social aspects at the same time. Systematic literature review of RL conducted along with in-depth interviews conducted with experts of industry and academia. Based on in-depth interviews, a content validity ratio analysis was conducted to examine the content validity of the questionnaire. Explanatory factor analysis using SPSS version 21 and confirmatory factor analysis using AMOS were conducted to test the reliability and validity of the questionnaire. A sample of 329 respondents working in the banking sector was taken for data analysis. Eigenvalues result confirms the triple bottom approach that RL is a three-dimensional construct and measured by economic, social and environmental aspects. These three dimensions explain 66.83% of the total variance explained. Respondents’ demographic shows that the male section is dominant in the banking sector as 83.6% of respondents were male and 16.4% were female. The economic dimension consists of eight items that have a Cronbach alpha value of 0.97, the social dimension has eight items that have a Cronbach alpha value of 0.90, and the environmental dimension consists of nine items that have a Cronbach value of 0.92. Initially, CFA was conducted with 25 items, then implemented modification indices and the final CFA was conducted with 23 items and all indicators of model fitness were found up to standard. The outcome of the present study is in form of a measurement scale based on the triple bottom approach which covers economic, social and environmental aspects of leadership. It is hoped that this scale will be potentially helpful for future researchers to measure RL and check the relationship with other potential variables. This systematic literature review and scale will allow future researchers to explore and conduct empirical studies in banking and other sectors. This paper responded to various calls regarding the universally accepted measurement scale of RL by developing the RL measurement scale.
