This study examines how informality and the business environment shape carbon emissions and whether regulatory quality conditions the environmental consequences of informal production. The analysis uses an annual panel of 145 economies over 2005–2020, combining data from the World Development Indicators and World Bank. Informality is measured using dynamic general equilibrium and Multiple Indicators Multiple Causes estimates, while nine disaggregated business‐environment dimensions capture firm entry, infrastructure, finance, taxation, trade and commercial institutions. Standard negative binomial regression constitutes the principal estimator, with Poisson regression, alternative informality measurement and income‐group estimations used for robustness. The results show that informality is consistently associated with lower aggregate CO 2 emissions, with the relationship strongest in low‐income economies and weakest in high‐income countries. This apparent environmental advantage reflects the small‐scale, labour‐intensive and capital‐constrained nature of informal production rather than inherently cleaner business practices. Most business‐environment indicators are associated with higher emissions, particularly in lower‐ to middle‐income economies, suggesting that enterprise expansion and energy demand may outpace the diffusion of cleaner technologies. Environmental regulatory quality moderates the negative informality–emissions relationship. The findings show that neither informality, formalisation nor business‐environment reform is intrinsically green. Governments should therefore align formalisation and business reforms with proportionate environmental regulation, green finance, cleaner energy and supply‐chain accountability to reconcile enterprise development with climate objectives.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149374413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on contingency theory, this study examines this fit at three levels: strategic (the circular strategy a service supports), functional (the logistics processes it performs) and capability (the resources and know‐how behind it). This study employs qualitative content analysis of corporate reports and websites of 45 large Swedish companies including 35 buyers across seven sectors and 10 providers of two types, traditional logistics service providers and waste management companies. The findings show that logistics services in the circular economy extend well beyond returns and reverse logistics. Across the sectors, the buyers need logistics services strategically to support prevention, life extension and material circularity and functionally for logistics optimization, reverse‐flow coordination, material processing, service logistics and platform coordination. And these logistics service needs are dependent on governance, specialized assets, circular know‐how, data‐handling and decarbonization. Logistics service providers address these needs in two ways. Traditional providers' services are more product centric, and waste management companies' services are more materials centric. No single provider type meets the needs of every sector, and the three‐level framework shows where fit and misfit arise. For buyers, it guides whether to rely on one provider, combine providers or keep functions in‐house. For providers, it shows where circular offerings are missing and where joint service bundles are needed.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"427 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149374587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study presents a structured approach to integrating ESG and financial key performance indicators (KPIs) using the balanced scorecard (BSC) and the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The BSC provides a comprehensive framework, anchored in stakeholder, resource‐based, legitimacy, agency and triple‐bottom‐line perspectives, that connects ESG metrics with financial outcomes across four strategic perspectives: financial, customer, internal business processes (IBP), and learning & growth (L&G). The AHP complements this by enabling the prioritization and weighting of KPIs through expert input and stakeholder preferences, offering a transparent and data‐driven method for decision‐making. Together, these tools support a clear strategic alignment between sustainability goals and business performance, identifying key areas where ESG efforts deliver measurable value. This integrated approach contributes to the field of sustainability assessment and policy modelling by offering a replicable, stakeholder‐focused framework for performance management. It enables organizations to make informed decisions that advance ESG commitments while maintaining financial accountability.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"78 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149374246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines how rural tourism space is produced through community-based multisensory commodification, drawing on Lefebvre’s theory of the production of space to conceptualise commodification as a process operating across perceived, conceived, and lived dimensions. Using a qualitative case study of Samiran Tourism Village, Indonesia, the research combines participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis to investigate how tourism reshapes socio-spatial relations. The findings show that community-based multisensory commodification operates through visual, aural, and gustatory practices that selectively reconfigure landscapes, everyday activities, and cultural expressions into tourism experiences. Rather than functioning as a purely market-driven process, commodification is continuously negotiated through uneven power relations among government institutions, market forces, and community actors. Consequently, rural tourism space emerges as a hybrid and contested socio-spatial formation in which material transformation, symbolic meaning, and lived experience intersect. The study advances tourism geography by conceptualising community-based multisensory commodification as a socio-spatial process operating across Lefebvre’s spatial triad, thereby reframing community-based tourism as a negotiated form of spatial production shaped by power relations. It further contributes empirical insights from a Global South rural context by highlighting lived space as a critical site of negotiation and potential resistance within tourism-driven transformation.","PeriodicalId":48115,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Geographies","volume":"78 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149374628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we focus on whether overconfident CEOs run their firms differently, focusing on a key internal interaction: CEOs' choices regarding whether to delegate to other executives. Delegation is increasingly required given the growing size and complexity of public firms, yet surprisingly, most prior empirical work on delegation has been focused on lower-level managers or non-strategic tasks. We argue why overconfident CEOs would have a lower baseline tendency to delegate, and then posit how overconfidence interacts with contextual considerations, such that overconfident CEOs are less responsive to these cues than other CEOs. We test our hypotheses using a sample of 3690 merger and acquisition announcements and find evidence that overconfident CEOs are less likely to delegate compared to other CEOs and less responsive to multiple indicators at the task and firm level. Our paper's central contribution is that CEO overconfidence, a widely studied psychological trait in external risk-taking and acquisitions, also shapes the internal management of firms via a different pattern and approach to delegating responsibility to other top executives.","PeriodicalId":48445,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management Studies","volume":"63 8","pages":"5032-5066"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/joms.70095","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149369440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Large language models (LLMs) break it architecturally, generating discourse that is statistically plausible yet epistemically ungrounded, while standard metrics (precision, recall, relevance) cannot detect the rupture. The field therefore lacks not a further metric but a theory of signs that appear authoritative while ungrounded; we propose critical semiotics as that theory. Treating outputs as observable sign-actions, we argue the LLM is an engine of the ultimate forgery: a simulation whose object is meaning-making itself. A stratified reading (Saussurean langue, Derridean écriture, Peircean process semiotics, sharpened by Leone's “absolute fake”) yields Structural Selfhood: an enunciative “I” sustained by recursive architecture rather than interiority. The rupture is located precisely: the model satisfies Peircean speculative grammar and functions methodeutically, while critic, where a sign is held answerable to its object, has no locus in the architecture. Two consequences follow: a systemic erosion of veridiction, that is, of the capacity to distinguish truth-telling from its simulation, and generative algorithmic epistemic injustice, the presentation of a corpus's distribution as knowledge itself. Mata v. Avianca's fabricated citations render the mechanism legible. Critical semiotics is thus an indispensable analytical resource.","PeriodicalId":48810,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology","volume":"77 12","pages":"1514-1529"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/asi.70132","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149375862","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We ask when task‐level effects alter knowledge‐work industry architecture: the allocation of activities across firm boundaries. Using a three‐stage abductive design—an executive roundtable, a panel of 626 firm websites (2017–2025), and 33 interviews plus two further roundtables with C‐level executives and corporate directors—we document divergent repositioning: professional services firms foreground relational value, while interface‐oriented technology firms emphasize scalable interfaces. We find that activity reallocation is shaped by two independently varying dimensions: expertise bypass and exchange governability. Their intersection yields four configurations: contestable reallocation, persistent bundles with selective insourcing, federated expert provision, and integrated expert provision. We extend industry architecture theory by explaining change when production and exchange conditions shift separately. Managerial Summary GenAI is not simply making knowledge work more efficient—it may be changing which organizations perform which work. We document that professional services firms are emphasizing relationship‐driven, judgment‐intensive work, while interface‐oriented technology firms are extending scalable delivery. Our framework explains why task exposure alone does not determine where work moves. We distinguish between expertise bypass—whether GenAI can produce an output without the expertise previously required—and exchange governability—whether that activity can be specified, verified, priced, and warranted across firm boundaries. Where both are present, work becomes contestable and may be reallocated. Where they diverge, highly exposed activities may remain bundled, while less exposed, human‐intensive work may move through federated specialist models. These conditions shape which organizational forms become viable.","PeriodicalId":51417,"journal":{"name":"Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal","volume":"289 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149374245","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, effective remedies in managing relationships and bridging identities between subgroups are urgently needed in these teams. Building on brokering research, we introduce team iungens practice (TIP) – so named from a Latin phrase meaning ‘joins or unites’ – as a new team process that team members or leaders can engage to forge and strengthen connections or facilitate new coordination among team members. We propose that teams can effectively utilize this behavioural strategy to bridge structural (faultline) and process (conflict) divides rooted in subgroup identity separation, thereby mitigating their negative impacts on team creativity. In Study 1, we developed and validated a scale to measure TIP. In Study 2, we found that TIPs effectively mitigated the positive effect of demographic faultline strength on relationship conflict and attenuated the negative impact of relationship conflict on team creativity from a multisource and multistage survey study. We demonstrate the value of TIPs as a behavioural strategy for managing demographic faultlines and relationship conflicts in teams.","PeriodicalId":48445,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management Studies","volume":"63 8","pages":"4618-4656"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149369523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
