Abstract
Sustainable development has emerged as a critical concern globally, and digital transformation holds enormous potential for advancing the sustainable development of organizations. However, the relationship between digital transformation and sustainable performance remains largely unclear. To gain an in‐depth understanding of this relationship, we explore the effects of digital transformation dimensions on sustainable performance across diverse environmental and organizational conditions from a configuration perspective. The findings show that efficiency transformation and value transformation have different combinatory effects (facilitating or inhibiting) in achieving economic and environmental performance configurations in agribusinesses, considering organizational and environmental factors, such as firm size, industry type, and market turbulence. This study offers new perspectives on this relationship and provides managerial insights into how agribusinesses can achieve sustainable performance in different organizations and environments.
期刊介绍:
Business Strategy and the Environment (BSE) is a leading academic journal focused on business strategies for improving the natural environment. It publishes peer-reviewed research on various topics such as systems and standards, environmental performance, disclosure, eco-innovation, corporate environmental management tools, organizations and management, supply chains, circular economy, governance, green finance, industry sectors, and responses to climate change and other contemporary environmental issues. The journal aims to provide original contributions that enhance the understanding of sustainability in business. Its target audience includes academics, practitioners, business managers, and consultants. However, BSE does not accept papers on corporate social responsibility (CSR), as this topic is covered by its sibling journal Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management. The journal is indexed in several databases and collections such as ABI/INFORM Collection, Agricultural & Environmental Science Database, BIOBASE, Emerald Management Reviews, GeoArchive, Environment Index, GEOBASE, INSPEC, Technology Collection, and Web of Science.
