We disaggregate the notion of ‘politics of internationalization’ through identification of a set of distinct dimensions in which politics affect firm internationalization.

We find that EMNE strategies are becoming more entangled with those of governments, political parties, lobbyists, and other formal and informal institutions. In emerging economies, the state often plays a relatively active role in the economy, and EMNE strategies are more conditioned by politics, policies, and non-market considerations.

We argue that the ability to leverage politics is becoming more important for the competitive advantage of EMNEs, and firms are increasingly engaging in political activities through nonmarket strategies.

Towards Net Zero Emissions

Corporate venture capital (CVC) plays a pivotal role in driving innovation. Our study offers compelling evidence that integrating sustainability into CVC strategies benefits not only the environment but also enhances long-term financial performance. Through CVC programs, corporate parents innovate by creating and executing new business models, leveraging both incremental and radical innovation. The concept of “innovation compensation” serves as a catalyst for encouraging corporations to adopt ecologically sustainable practices.

Why should I not complain? User justice and satisfaction

Online shopping satisfaction hinges on two major factors: “fairness and security.” Customers want fair pricing, transparent processes, and respectful treatment—what researchers call distributive, procedural, and interactional “justice.” When customers feel valued and protected, they’re more satisfied and less likely to complain.

The effect of sanctions on macro talent management

The purpose of our study is to examine how the sanctions influence macro talent management. To do so, we review the macro talent management (MTM) framework alongside the literature on sanctions. Using the case of Russia we have collected data from 419 media publications discussing the effects of sanctions and analyzed them using critical discourse analysis. Our findings highlight the predominantly negative nature of the sanctions’ impact on MTM ecosystems, theoretically yielding closer links between the sanctions and the MTM framework, and human capital more specifically.

Corporate Governance and Green Innovation

Previous research examining the link between board attributes and ecological strategies such as green innovation has primarily focused on structural board attributes, yielding mixed findings. Moreover, the critical contextual grounds that shape the relationship between board attributes and green innovation have often been overlooked, leading to potential biases in empirical investigations. Considering that competence drives outstanding performance, we developed a unique measure of board competence that represents the board's intrinsic ability to perform in corporate strategies.Drawing on a holistic perspective of agency, resource dependence, and stakeholder theories, we posit a strong relationship between board competence and green innovation.Furthermore, we contend that this association is moderated by external governance mechanisms, namely audit quality, media coverage, and imitative pressure.Through our analysis of publicly traded Chinese companies, we found compelling evidence to support our assertions. These findings have important implications for policymakers, practitioners, and managers.

Do Wealth Managers Understand Codes of Conduct and Their Ethical Dilemmas?

How do wealth managers understand and comply with the social norms embedded in banks’ codes of conduct (CoC), and how do they cope with ethical dilemmas? To answer these and related questions, we conduct a nonincentivized online survey with wealth management employees of the Swiss legal entity of a large multinational bank. We used situational judgment questions to estimate the comprehension and the level of expected adherence to the CoC principles.
