Our model demonstrates how multilevel interactions may produce unintended results. More standards could impede transparent reporting for organizations, which in turn hinders stakeholders in making fair judgments about the sustainability of organizations.

When they operate in work environments that focus on performance comparisons though, this harmful dynamic becomes subdued. Organizations accordingly should avoid giving employees a reason to criticize their employer for treating them as unworthy members because this criticism generates a channel by which conflicting emotions escalate into work-related complacency, which might prevent the experienced hardships from being addressed.

In this study, the ability of firms to refine their organizational practices in accordance with external developments has been considered, particularly in the context of the introduction of updated environmental regulations and advanced technologies, with the aim of surviving and competing globally. In this study, it was postulated that organizational innovation was one of the main drivers of green innovation at the level of the firm. Hence, the intention here was to study whether green innovation was affected when businesses adapted their environmental strategies in alignment with organizational structures. Moreover, the paper aimed to explore whether there was any major disproportion in green innovation between firms in dirty and in clean sectors. To address these main points, a two-step regression using the generalized method of moments (GMM) was run on data relating to organizational innovation factors and green innovation constructs at the level of the firm, this information being drawn from the Technological Innovation Panel (PITEC) database. These panel data, based on the Community Innovation Surveys (CIS) framework, were used to detect innovations in Spanish firms by investigating long-term relationships between variables to control for nonobservable heterogeneity. The principal findings confirm that the organizational innovation variables studied did promote green innovation and that the dirty sector firms were more likely to undertake green innovations than those in the cleaner sectors.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48290,"journal":{"name":"European Management Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0263237323000063/pdfft?md5=9b34b4ce55555eaee0d771b8cdfdfc7c&pid=1-s2.0-S0263237323000063-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43726055","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}

This study examines the direct and indirect impacts of internal and external corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices on employee job satisfaction through organisational identification, conditional on employee age. A total of 236 valid responses were received from eight multinational medical device manufacturers in Malaysia. Partial least squares and PROCESS algorithms were employed to assess the hypothesised interactions between the predictors and criterion variables. The empirical results showed that internal CSR (i.e., <em>CSR to employee</em>) could significantly drive a greater sense of belonging and work satisfaction. Surprisingly, however, external CSR (i.e., <em>CSR to community</em>) negatively affects job fulfilment in the medical devices industry during the pandemic. Nevertheless, the findings also showed that ongoing CSR activities in the community could build organisational identification and subsequently improve job satisfaction. Conversely, <em>CSR to environment</em> did not statistically influence job satisfaction, either directly or indirectly. The mediating effects of organisational identification were not associated with employee age. This study provides a practical framework for effective CSR strategies amid the pandemic that can help organisations align with social responsibility, enhance their reputation, and contribute to society.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48290,"journal":{"name":"European Management Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10081885/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9687586","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}

This increasing trend of avoiding leadership roles has prompted a new area of research, concentrating on agentic perspectives in leader emergence and self-selection biases. This study focuses on a key concept in this emerging field: “reluctance to lead” (RTL). Only recently has reluctance in the leadership context received limited attention from a few scholars. These efforts primarily concentrated on RTL before the role occupancy by defining it as individuals' hesitations to accept a leadership role when presented with the opportunity. This paper broadens the conceptualization of RTL by extending its definition as the hesitation of a high-potential individual both before and after role occupancy (i.e., individuals’ hesitations about their fit to the role while it is practiced). Prior studies also adopted a person-centered approach, focusing on identity- and competency-related factors while overlooking the contextual aspects in explaining RTL. This paper integrates contextual foci into the discussion of RTL, specifically exploring how spatial and technological, organizational, leadership, socio-cultural, and historical contexts (with a focus on Europe) interface with RTL.
