Abstract

PB, Brasil *claudiagohr@ct.ufpb.br Abstract Paper aims: This paper aims to investigate which dynamic capabilities are responsible for sustainable innovation. Originality: Based on the literature review, we propose a theoretical framework that relates dynamic capabilities to sustainable innovation (considering triple bottom line perceptive), regarding product, process marketing, and organizational innovations typologies. Research method: The framework was applied in this research through a case study method in two plants of a large footwear company that operates in the Northeastern region of Brazil. Data were collected by semi-structured interviews, observation, and company documents. Main findings: The company developed sustainable innovation focusing on processes and products. The economic aspect of sustainability has a strong influence on these innovations, followed by the environmental aspect. The technological and resource integration are the most critical capabilities. Implications for theory and practice: The paper contributes to understanding how DCs are deployed to boost sustainable innovation regarding the product, process, marketing, and organizational innovations typologies. Recognizing which DCs are necessary for sustainable innovation is a first step in being able to manage better and enhance sustainability considering

可持续创新的动态能力:以巴西一家鞋类公司为例

摘要论文目的:本文旨在探讨哪些动态能力负责可持续创新。原创性:在文献回顾的基础上，我们提出了一个将动态能力与可持续创新(考虑三重底线感知)联系起来的理论框架，涉及产品、过程营销和组织创新类型。研究方法:本研究通过案例研究方法在巴西东北部地区一家大型鞋类公司的两家工厂中应用该框架。数据通过半结构化访谈、观察和公司文件收集。主要发现:公司在工艺和产品上进行了可持续的创新。可持续发展的经济方面对这些创新有很大的影响，其次是环境方面。技术和资源整合是最关键的能力。对理论和实践的启示:本文有助于理解如何部署数据中心来促进产品、过程、营销和组织创新类型方面的可持续创新。认识到哪些发展中国家对可持续创新是必要的，是能够更好地管理和加强可持续考虑的第一步
