Based on institutional theory and the dynamic capability view, this study delves into the relationship between a firm’s climate change adaptation (CCA) capability and its performance, with a focus on the mediating influence of business-to-business (B2B) marketing capability. The study poses two main research questions: RQ1: What role do institutional pressures play in fostering CCA capability among B2B firms in both developed and developing countries? RQ2: How does the CCA capability of B2B firms impact their performance? To validate the theoretical model developed, data is collected through surveys conducted in a developed country (Australia) and a developing country (South Africa). The study holds significance on two fronts: (a) being among the first to examine the influence of institutional pressures on CCA capability development, and (b) uncovering the mediating role of marketing capability in enhancing B2B firm performance through CCA capability. The study’s novel contribution lies in identifying pivotal elements for driving exceptional B2B firm performance amidst climate change, while employing institutional theory and the dynamic capability view to elucidate underlying mechanisms.

What is managerialism?

Managerialism is the concentration of power in the hands of managers, at the expense of other stakeholders within an organization. It thrives on a weakening of the professional authority of those who carry out the mission of their company or administration, which is replaced by the power of those who believe they know best and decide everything accordingly. Managers are tasked with setting collective objectives and deciding on the means to achieve them. Resisting managerialism, therefore, means restoring the authority of those who can explain and justify the why and how of what they do or propose to do.

What is the synthetic-analytic distinction?

Little known in France, the analytic-synthetic distinction is one of the cornerstones of empiricism in general and the scientific method in particular. Indeed, it translates, into everyday language, the fact that scientific knowledge derives either from experience (that is, from observation) or from logic applied to experience. The origins of the distinction date back to the fourteenth century and William of Ockham, but it was David Hume and then Immanuel Kant who gave it its definitive expression.

What is obedience?

Researchers in management schools generally accept a deterministic view of behavior, according to which obedience is the product of social forces acting on individuals and causing their behavior. This view received empirical validation in the famous studies of Solomon Asch and Staley Milgram. However, the records of these experiments allow us to interpret their surprising results in another way: if the subjects behaved as they did, it was because they believed they were doing the right thing. In other words, their obedience reflected a free and deliberate choice.

What is FOMO?

Several blogs and websites focused on social media marketing suggest that, for brands with an Instagram account, it can be profitable to cultivate their followers’ fear of missing out (“FoMO”) by posting ephemeral content. Based on an online survey conducted with 550 followers of various brand Instagram accounts and an experimental study involving 535 participants, this article shows that the ephemeral nature of content triggers FoMO among followers, which in turn positively influences engagement and fatigue toward the brand’s account. Engagement (respectively, fatigue) toward the brand’s account is in turn positively (respectively, negatively) related to attitude toward the brand and attachment to it. Further analyses reveal that the total effect of followers’ FoMO on brand attachment is positive and significant, whereas the total effect of FoMO on attitude toward the brand is not significant. Moreover, the ephemeral nature of content has a total negative and significant effect on attitude toward the brand. These findings therefore indicate that it is not advantageous for brands to foster FoMO among their Instagram followers by posting ephemeral content.

Human artificial intelligence at the service of hyperperformance

Artificial intelligence is already transforming lives and organizations. It brings a huge potential, for example, to achieve hyper-performance. Which is not about adding more trainings. But rather finding and removing obstacles from human minds. And artificial intelligence can facilitate that efficiently. It can help us to learn more about our own intelligence. Thus, giving us a unique chance to finally re-unite both intelligences.

What is Hyper-Performance?

It is a state of performance when all unnecessary human thought is minimized or completely suppressed. Such as bad judgments, distracting thoughts, subjective biases, bad decisions, etc. For example, employees may be reluctant to accept artificial intelligence. That means there’s something in their mind that stops them. That something is the root cause.

Managing the client portfolio for long-term survival

Our goal was to understand the effectiveness of a company in attracting its customer targets. To do this, we have developed a model that links a company’s marketing activities to the mix of customers who buy from the company. Most marketing models simply ask how a company’s marketing activities influence the number of customers who buy the brand. We wondered how a company’s marketing activities influence the types of customers who buy the brand.
