This transition requires assessing economic, environmental, social, and governance dimensions. We conduct a systematic literature review to evaluate whether existing methodologies can effectively assess the circularity and sustainability of value chains according to these four critical dimensions. Our work identifies three critical aspects to improve value chain evaluation: (i) circular economy requires assessment of the entire value chains, (ii) lack of stakeholder integration hinders sustainable development, and (iii) the need for multilevel and multidimensional performance assessment results in complex and incomplete methodologies. These findings imply that restructuring value creation models and value chain networks is essential to facilitate the application of simplified methodologies, thereby promoting the widespread adoption of circularity and sustainability. Addressing these gaps would the achievement of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda and benefit society in the long run.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142448556","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}

Hence, supplier engagement has emerged as a critical strategy for achieving net‐zero emissions. However, studies about how purchasing firms engage with suppliers and how such engagement mitigates Scope 3 emissions are relatively scant. This study fills this important gap in supply chain management literature. The study employs a multiple‐case study approach. Overall, 42 semi‐structured interviews with senior managers from four purchasing and four supplying firms are undertaken. The results unveil six of the best strategies that purchasing firms have deployed to effectively engage suppliers and bring them on track to reduce Scope 3 emissions. These include effective communication, building trust, providing support and guidance, using suppliers' data effectively, refining engagement programs through consistent feedback, and developing supplier incentive programs. The study offers both theoretical insights and practical implications. For instance, it suggests that effective engagement with suppliers will help suppliers mitigate Scope 3 emissions, and buyers can also overcome conflicting targets to reduce Scope 3 emission targets in procurement. The paper concludes with a discussion of limitations and suggestions for future research.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142448558","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}

One intervention to better support businesses in this process is circularity training, often provided by an innovation intermediary. However, little is known of the impact on internal barriers and drivers for circular business model innovation after circularity training has been completed.This research tackles this question through a qualitative exploratory approach, using a multiple‐case study, collecting semi‐structured data from businesses after their completion of a circular training course. We find that even after the circular training, a range of barriers continue to influence circular business model innovation, including issues related to the availability of resources, company acceptance, and technology.The research concludes with recommendations for future training programs and the role of innovation intermediaries, based on the internal barriers and drivers that the companies encountered when working toward circularity implementation and circular business model innovation.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"71 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142439721","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}

Through an international research initiative, a social innovation lab was undertaken in Brazil, Canada, Poland and the United Kingdom to understand and address key barriers in closing the bio‐based plastic packaging loop. Based upon a qualitative data set of 100 stakeholder interviews and three phases of workshop activities in each country, a grounded model was generated to illustrate how competing views and actions are inhibiting a circular system for bio‐based plastic packaging. Key issues were the lack of end‐of‐life processing infrastructure, contamination in processing facilities and absent or ineffective regulation. A systemic approach that includes shared responsibility for infrastructure, simplified packaging design and materials and equitable regulation to reduce susceptibility to greenwashing can improve collaboration to meet circular goals.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142431299","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}

Using a sample of 3659 unique US firms from 2015 to 2021, we collected data on the adoption of the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board's reporting framework—identifying first movers, followers, and non‐adopting firms—and their levels of common institutional ownership. Our results are robust across changes in the levels of common institutional ownership, various combinations of fixed effects, and the application of an instrumental variable approach. Our findings support the idea that investors' demand drives comparability and financial materiality in sustainability reporting and that common ownership enhances such disclosure by alleviating the concern over the proprietary costs of revealing sensitive information. Our study offers new insights into patterns of intra‐industry disclosure behavior and a better understanding of how a group of increasingly significant market participants (i.e., common institutional owners) influences firms' commitment to investor‐focused disclosure.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142430414","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}

While there are many studies on the national or global interventions and technology developments to minimize environmental damage from the internet, very few have investigated the individual level strategies. This study examines individual‐level strategies, including intrinsic motivation (IM), extrinsic motivation, and price‐based interventions, that internet‐based organizations can implement to minimize the environmental impact of internet usage. The research aims to identify the most effective strategy for reducing individual internet usage after individuals become aware of the environmental consequences. The survey experiment results demonstrate that combining all three strategies proves most effective in mitigating the environmental damage caused by internet usage. Extrinsic motivation is particularly effective, both in combination with other strategies and when utilized independently after raising awareness. The results also depict that when taken individually, price‐based strategies (PPSs) show a lower impact, while IM exhibits the lowest impact on behavior change. Additionally, males exhibit a higher inclination towards extrinsic motivation strategies based on the multi‐group analysis. Remarkably, individuals, regardless of gender, age, income, or level of internet activity, show a willingness to adopt PPSs to decrease internet usage after exposure to an informational video. These findings provide valuable insights for the development of strategies to minimize the environmental impact of individual internet usage.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142430413","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}
