Abstract
Abstract Despite the vital role of organizations’ knowledge management and its diverse influence on achieving sustainable organizational performance (SOP), as well as the impact of leadership behavior (LB), it is remarkable that no previous study has addressed this subject matter comprehensively. As a result, this study aims to investigate the relationship between SOP and knowledge risk management (KRM) while examining the role of LB. It adopts a quantitative approach and gathers data from Nigerian companies through an online questionnaire distributed between November 2019 and September 2020. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is utilized to test the hypotheses. Remarkably, no prior research has inspected the mediating and moderating role of LB in the connection between SOP and KRM until this study. Empirical results indicate that: (i) LB and KRM positively influence SOP; (ii) KRM has a positive impact on LB; (iii) LB moderates the relationship between KRM and SOP; and (iv) LB serves as a mediator between KRM and SOP. The findings of this empirical research will enhance managers’ understanding of the significance of LB in the relationship between KRM and SOP.
