Abstract
This study explores the impact of Green Knowledge Sharing (GKS) on Organizational Performance (OP), considering the mediating roles of Green Organizational Culture (GOC) and Technological Innovation (TI). Addressing current gaps in the literature, the research extends beyond sector‐specific analyses and incorporates a cross‐country perspective, examining 297 small and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) in Portugal, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Additionally, this study acknowledges the influence of digital transformation in enhancing GKS, a factor often overlooked in previous research. By adopting a Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach, this article confirms a direct and positive effect on both OP and GOC, with GOC further influencing OP, establishing its mediating role in this relationship. However, the relationships between GKS and TI, as well as the indirect effect of GKS on OP through TI, are not supported. These findings offer theoretical advancements by broadening the conventional understanding of OP beyond financial metrics and present practical implications for SME managers, highlighting strategies to foster a green organizational culture and leverage technological innovation for sustainable performance.
