Their vision and guiding principles are contained in their prototype for a single corporate reporting framework (IIRC, 2012) which highlights the disclosure of content relating to the strategic stance of the individual firm. The aim of this paper was to gain historical insights on the integration of environmental issues within the internal cost information systems of institutions operating under the umbrella of an industry group’s strategic stance. Underpinned by institutional theory, the study sought to illuminate interconnections. Data was obtained through mixed methods, and the early evidence displayed a landscape of diversity between environmental costs, and their accumulation and integration within the accounting information system.","PeriodicalId":319298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Strategic Management","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133506484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given that texting while driving is a growing phenomenon we wish to identify attitudes and personality traits that may affect a propensity to voluntarily undertake such a dangerous activity. We focused on personality traits of ‘impulsiveness’ and a ‘need to be connected’ as possible explanations of texting while driving behaviour. Analysis indicates ‘texting impulsiveness’ is positively associated with people who text frequently and those who text while driving, with a significant gender difference. We found a very large majority of respondents, while recognising the dangerousness of texting while driving, are still willing to do it at least sometimes. While male respondents widely agree that texting while driving is dangerous they also believe that they are better at texting while driving than other drivers. Important public policy implications are suggested by this research.","PeriodicalId":319298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Strategic Management","volume":"9 7","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120941202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hotels often practice overbooking to face uncertainty, seeking to maximise rooms’ occupancy rates acting on the reduction of uncertainty on demand. At the same time overbooking is often correlated to an increase of uncertainty in relationships because it is very difficult to predict how different customers might react facing overbooking. This article aims to compare two different overbooking approaches: the traditional overbooking approach and an alternative one, called fair and transparent overbooking, according to which customers are made aware in advance of the possibility of overbooking. The main objective is to understand what are the consequences of traditional overbooking, both positive and negative, and then to figure out if the introduction of a new overbooking formula could alleviate the negative consequences, while maintaining the benefits, making it more sustainable from a social, relational and economic point of view. The theoretical analysis is supported by an empirical survey which aims to verify how overbooking is common, for which reasons is mainly practised by hotels and what are the main benefits and problems. Finally, the survey aimed to explore the possibility of practicing the fair and transparent overbooking.","PeriodicalId":319298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Strategic Management","volume":"119 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132126614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, the traditional role of general managers as ‘generalists’ has increasingly fallen out of favour. General management, which once formed the nucleus of training in business schools, has largely been replaced by specialised courses such as quality management, entrepreneurship, and innovation and technology. Uncertainty and volatility in world markets, however, underline the continued importance of general managers who possess broad strategic and critical thinking skills that enable them to manage increasingly complex organisations in a global business environment. This paper examines the evolving role of the general manager from an analytical to strategic thinker, who is capable of leading increasingly complex businesses, organising globally dispersed assets, managing a wider range of stakeholders, and responding to rapid technological and global change.","PeriodicalId":319298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Strategic Management","volume":"184 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120978417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the College Board (2009), students from underrepresented populations do not perform as well as White students on standardised tests. Therefore, higher education institutions have established test-optional admission policies giving students the option of not submitting standardised test scores. By utilising a non-experimental ex post facto design, the researcher analysed data from freshman students at King’s College from 2003–2010 who used traditional and test-optional admission policies. The researcher determined through a chi square statistical analysis that each research question resulted in a statistically significant difference. Given the data presented, colleges and universities may need to consider offering test-optional admission policies for future growth and sustainability.","PeriodicalId":319298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Strategic Management","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117137653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research investigates the influence of organisational culture, competitive intensity and organisational age and size on the development of a firm’s market orientation, and how these two distinct forms of market orientation may influence organisational success. The results of this study indicate empirical evidence that cultures classified as adhocracy and market exhibit positive relationships with both responsive and proactive market orientation, whereas cultures classified as clan and hierarchy do not. Competitive intensity does not exhibit a significant relationship with either market orientation classification. Proactive market orientation exhibits a significant positive relationship with market performance, whereas responsive market orientation does not. The results may guide managers in developing the appropriate organisational environment to support successful innovation efforts.","PeriodicalId":319298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Strategic Management","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116640514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Government also enacted some regulations that all state-owned companies (SOCs) allocate some of their profits in CSR programs. This paper attempts to analyse the effectiveness of CSR programs run by SOCs, and to assess the contributions of those programs in addressing social and environmental issues – which have been a government agenda. The findings of this paper reveal that government have fostered SOCs to prioritise strengthening economic programs for small-medium enterprises (SMEs). In the other sites, government has minimum attention to encourage SOCs to empower potential rural areas’ economic development as well as to overcome their social issues. The results of this paper are to provide information as guidance for government and SOCs to align each social mission through social responsibility programs in creating sustainable development.","PeriodicalId":319298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Strategic Management","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123241162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sustainability is often defined using a set of criteria or metrics that address the recognised environmental, social, and economic pillars of sustainability. However, standard metrics fail to account for how companies deal with operational challenges to their sustainability and viability. As a 175 year old diesel engine manufacturer, Navistar, Inc. has developed a model to address not only the three pillars of sustainability but also its significant business challenges, including those related to health concerns over its diesel products and environmental and employee legacies. Featuring a commitment to sustainable innovation and product stewardship and reliance on sound science, Navistar’s sustainability model has evolved in response to its unique operating environment. This model illustrates the benefits of designing sustainability strategies to address specific business challenges rather than a standard set of criteria.","PeriodicalId":319298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Strategic Management","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123463276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study illustrates the challenge of an organisation as it becomes larger and more diverse to keep the core values alive. We focused on a multinational corporation with more than 30 years’ experience with sustainability issues. It is one of the world’s top manufacturers of renewable energy equipment. We found a very high diversity in sustainability perceptions. This exploratory study is based on a broad sample within one company, and it created new empirical insights enhancing the understanding of the sustainability theme in international business by creating a framework for describing patterns of sustainability understandings among international business units. This framework is useable by management to describe, explore and trigger new ways of thinking and to facilitate corporate culture change through coordination and configuration of the system of values and beliefs regarding sustainability among employees in the company.","PeriodicalId":319298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Strategic Management","volume":"108 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114001174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
