This article examines how objectives and key results (OKRs)—a goal-setting framework stemming from the management-by-objectives approach—can support middle managers to facilitate critical sensemaking and sensegiving, translate strategic goals into actionable steps, and thereby foster intra-organization alignment. Qualitative research with experts from 22 organizations revealed how OKRs promote key mechanisms by reinforcing goal orientation, fostering reflection, encouraging feedback, empowering employees, enhancing and requiring transparency, and facilitating communication. Those mechanisms, in supporting middle managers in their interpretive and communicative roles, influence the continuous interplay of critical sensemaking and sensegiving, in a dynamic that enhances strategy implementation by enhancing coordination, commitment, and competency. Overall, the article contributes to the literature on strategy implementation by positioning OKRs as a key tool for middle managers that shapes a formative context to enhance the strategy implementation process.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15123,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Research","volume":"202 ","pages":"Article 115774"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2025-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145322644","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}

Our findings show that deinfluencing encompasses authenticity (in the content and content creator, i.e. deinfluencer), it is perceived as a ‘morally responsible practice’ that focuses on social issues and serves as a catalyst for followers in their consumption, empowering them to make more informed choices (e.g., more environmentally friendly choices, alternative product options), while also urging them to consume less. We also find that deinfluencing has positive effects on the self, as it challenges beauty standards and ideals of ‘perfection’, with individuals feeling better and more comfortable in themselves because of deinfluencing content. Our study advances knowledge of deinfluencing and its effects on consumption, while positioning it as a crucial concept in the domain of social media marketing.

We further investigate the moderating role of environmental committees and their characteristics in shaping the relationship between earnings pressure and selective environmental disclosure. Using data from 1,321 U.S. publicly listed firms from 2005 to 2021, our analysis reveals that earnings pressure significantly increases managers’ engagement in selective environmental disclosure; and the presences of an environmental committee and a CEO serving on that committee amplify this effect.

While firms in emerging markets face growing pressure to innovate, they must do so within structurally volatile environments marked by institutional fragmentation, limited resources, and cultural resistance to failure. Existing literature on BMI often isolates internal and external drivers or assumes stable conditions typical of developed economies, leaving a gap in understanding how firms adapt to dynamic, interdependent constraints. Drawing on complexity theory—particularly concepts such as requisite variety, semiautonomous agency, and collaborative complexity—this study employs the Fuzzy Extended Analytic Hierarchy Process (FEAHP) to identify and prioritise 31 interrelated factors affecting BMI. Data were collected from Latin American innovation experts across multiple countries, yielding a regionally grounded hierarchy of strategic priorities. The results show that internal complexity—especially entrepreneurial orientation and organisational learning—forms the core of firms’ adaptive capacity, while collaborative complexity can only amplify innovation when these internal foundations are coherent. Fear of failure, hierarchical cultures, and fragmented learning systems emerged as key barriers. The study contributes to BMI and emerging market strategy literature by showing that firms in resource-constrained environments manage complexity not through discrete interventions, but through interdependent, evolving capabilities. Methodologically, it extends complexity theory through a hierarchical, evidence-based approach to factor prioritisation under uncertainty. Practically, it offers a structured framework to support firms and policymakers navigating innovation amid systemic turbulence.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15123,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Research","volume":"202 ","pages":"Article 115769"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2025-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145322632","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}
