Uncovering Motivation for Sustainable Entrepreneurship in Fashion, Beauty, and Wellness: Evidence From Global North and Global South
Sustainable entrepreneurship plays a crucial role in driving sustainable development, yet the motivation behind entrepreneurs' decisions to engage in sustainable businesses remains understudied. This research aims to identify the factors influencing entrepreneurs' motivation to engage in sustainable business in the fashion, beauty, and wellness industries. Employing a qualitative thematic content analysis of sustainable entrepreneurship cases published on the AIM2Flourish platform, the study reveals distinct patterns across different socioeconomic contexts. In “rising” economies, motivation for sustainable entrepreneurship is rooted in appreciative compassion, while developed countries show a greater emphasis on conscious guilt. Notably, the study demonstrates that the factors influencing entrepreneurs' motivation for sustainable businesses in developed countries are more complex and inside‐out oriented, while those in rising economies are more homogeneous and directed outside‐in. These findings contribute to a more nuanced understanding of sustainable entrepreneurship drivers across varying cultural landscapes. The results offer valuable context‐specific insights for policymakers and educators seeking to foster sustainable business practices.
期刊介绍:
Business Strategy and the Environment (BSE) is a leading academic journal focused on business strategies for improving the natural environment. It publishes peer-reviewed research on various topics such as systems and standards, environmental performance, disclosure, eco-innovation, corporate environmental management tools, organizations and management, supply chains, circular economy, governance, green finance, industry sectors, and responses to climate change and other contemporary environmental issues. The journal aims to provide original contributions that enhance the understanding of sustainability in business. Its target audience includes academics, practitioners, business managers, and consultants. However, BSE does not accept papers on corporate social responsibility (CSR), as this topic is covered by its sibling journal Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management. The journal is indexed in several databases and collections such as ABI/INFORM Collection, Agricultural & Environmental Science Database, BIOBASE, Emerald Management Reviews, GeoArchive, Environment Index, GEOBASE, INSPEC, Technology Collection, and Web of Science.
