Abstract

This study investigates the influence of leadership roles and owner-manager well-being on sustainable innovation in kirana (grocery) stores. As key contributors to local economies, these micro-enterprises face increasing pressure to adopt innovative and sustainable practices to remain competitive. The study uses data collected from 51 kirana store owners to explore the direct effects of leadership roles and well-being on fostering sustainable innovation. Correlation and regression analyses are employed to examine these relationships. Leadership roles are assessed in terms of strategic decision-making, vision, and the ability to motivate and guide teams. Meanwhile, owner-manager well-being encompasses physical health, emotional resilience, and overall satisfaction, reflecting the capacity of individuals to adapt and implement innovative practices. Findings reveal significant positive relationships between both leadership roles and owner-manager well-being with sustainable innovation. Leaders who exhibit strong strategic and adaptive capabilities are more likely to drive innovations.
