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.

Our research investigates the influence of green innovation and environmental performance on the long-term success of U.S. CVC parent firms. Furthermore, we examine how corporate social responsibility (CSR) functions as a critical intermediary in this relationship.

Should Robotic Warehouses Consider Customer Fairness?

Robotic warehouses have transformed logistics, prioritizing speed and efficiency. However, traditional static priority systems often leave low-priority customers facing excessive delays, raising concerns about fairness. This research, based on Invia, a robotic warehouse company, proposes a dynamic priority allocation model to balance efficiency and fairness. By adjusting order priorities over time, this approach ensures that both high-priority and long-waiting low-priority orders receive timely fulfillment. Through stochastic modeling and simulations, we demonstrate that dynamic prioritization reduces delays compared to static and first-come, first-served (FCFS) models. Case studies in e-commerce and healthcare logistics illustrate the broader impact of fairness in automation. As industries increasingly rely on AI-driven decision-making, the balance between efficiency and equity becomes critical. This research challenges the assumption that robotic warehouses should optimize for speed alone and advocates for a future where fairness plays a central role in automated commerce.

Greenwashing: The Post-Pandemic Shift

Dans un contexte économique sans précédent marqué par une pandémie mondiale, l’entrelacement complexe du discours sur le greenwashing à l’ère des fake news s'est intégré au tissu de la durabilité d’entreprise, remodelant les perceptions des managers et mettant à l’épreuve leur attitude face aux décisions durables. À travers une étude qualitative en deux phases, cette recherche examine l’impact du discours sur le greenwashing sur les perceptions et attitudes des managers vis-à-vis de la durabilité en France après la pandémie. Les résultats révèlent une déconnexion entre le discours externe sur le greenwashing et l’état d’esprit des managers, ces derniers associant souvent les accusations de greenwashing aux « fake news ». De plus, l’étude montre que la pandémie a déplacé l’attention vers les préoccupations financières, reléguant la durabilité au second plan dans la prise de décision stratégique et modifiant ainsi le paysage de la responsabilité d’entreprise. En allant au-delà du cadre habituel centré sur les consommateurs et les clients, cette étude vise à combler un vide critique dans la recherche sur le greenwashing en examinant son impact sur différents acteurs. À travers cette analyse, nous cherchons à contribuer aux recherches sur le discours du greenwashing en offrant une compréhension plus approfondie des complexités et des nuances entourant les perceptions managériales de ce discours et des initiatives de durabilité dans une époque marquée par des défis sans précédent.

The impact of legal uncertainties on innovating HR practices in developing countries

This study explores the influence of legal uncertainties on the process of innovating human resources (HR) practices in developing countries. Through a case study focused on introducing remote work within Kazakhstan’s Technical Gas Industry during a healthcare crisis, we examine the multifaceted challenges and opportunities that emerge when navigating a complex legal landscape. Our findings reveal that legal uncertainties, stemming from inadequacies in legislation and the tightness of norms, significantly impede the ability to adapt and modernize HR practices during crises. Furthermore, the criticality of the company’s position within the industry, combined with a low degree of legal enforcement, underscores the concept of ‘responsibilization’ among HR professionals. This phenomenon compels HR practitioners to assume greater responsibility and make strategic decisions that occasionally push the boundaries of existing laws and regulations. In this context, we propose a novel conceptualization of responsibilization, distinct from empowerment, as it involves embracing negative legal consequences associated with proactive decision-making during crises. This study contributes significantly to our understanding of how legal uncertainties influence the process of HR innovation in developing countries, highlighting the intricate interplay between regulatory frameworks, crisis management, and organizational transformation.

Less marketing for a better world !

Marketing seems to be slow to fully recognize its role, place and responsibility in changes in climate, biodiversity and resources. This reluctance can be attributed, at least in part, to the implicit assumptions of sustainable marketing, which tend to minimize the scale of the paradigm shifts needed to remain hopeful of a habitable planet. Consequently, the dominant approaches to “sustainable marketing” find it difficult to question the fundamental principles and ideological foundations of the market system. This is why we are calling for radical changes in marketing research in order to envisage a truly sustainable future. We are therefore formulating a program based on five proposals with the aim of inviting profound transformations in the discipline.

The walking dead: Are Zombie firms environmentally and socially responsible? A global perspective

This study examines the association between zombie firms and their environmental and social performance. Using a global dataset of listed firms from 49 countries between 2002 and 2019, we find that zombie firms perform poorly on environmental and social responsibility fronts. This finding supports the argument that zombie firms are characterized by consistent losses and that their existence is risky without external support. Zombie firms, while struggling for survival, may not be able to undertake environmental and social activities that require huge investments, thus falling behind other firms. Further analysis highlights that eco-innovation, the presence of a sustainability committee, and industry nature (i.e., heavily polluting industries) mitigate the negative impact of firms’ zombie status on their environmental and social performance. Moreover, a zombie firm’s engagement in environmental and social activities improves its financial performance. Our main findings are robust to a battery of estimation techniques, alternative proxies, selection bias, and endogeneity issues.
