ABSTRACT The double transition paradigm has imposed to redefine the rules to compete. The demand for green skills, driven by European policy targets, currently outpaces the supply available in the labor market. This study surveys European companies across multiple sectors to assess the role of green training, a key element of green human resource management, in bridging this gap. Additionally, it evaluates the influence of green training on the internal work climate and the firms' green reputation and performance. The results indicate a positive impact of green training on the internal working climate and through it on the green reputation and performance of firms involved in the survey, encouraging its adoption in their strategies. The final goal is the definition of the role of green training both from an academic and practical point of view in addressing the challenges imposed by the increasingly turbulent environment building long‐lasting resilience of companies.
