摘要

虽然项目在可持续性变化中的作用已得到广泛认可，但对项目经理在可持续性项目中的行为的理解是有限的。我们考察了项目倡导者，他们作为环境领导者，在没有等级和权威权力的情况下行事，并在行动者和城市管理的心态中推动与可持续性相关的变化。在纵向行动研究的基础上，阐述了项目领军者在城市组织中发起和推进循环经济的实践和特点。我们的研究通过增加对冠军在项目过程中发展其潜力以促进可持续性的方式的理解，有助于项目冠军和环境领导者研究的交叉。

Sustainability Project Champions as Environmental Leaders in a City Organization: Driving the Urban Circular Economy

While the role of projects in sustainability change is widely recognized, the understanding of project managers’ behaviour in sustainability projects is limited. We examine project champions who act without hierarchical and authoritative power as environmental leaders and drive sustainability-related changes in the mindsets of actors and in city administration. Based on longitudinal action research, we elaborate on the practices and characteristics of project champions in initiating and advancing the circular economy in a city organization. Our study contributes to the intersection of research on project champions and environmental leaders by increasing the understanding of the ways through which champions develop their potency to promote sustainability in the course of the project.

期刊介绍： South Asian Journal of Business and Management Cases (SAJBMC) is a peer-reviewed, tri-annual journal of Birla Institute of Management Technology, Greater Noida (India). The journal aims to provide a space for high-quality original research or analytical cases, evidence-based case studies, comparative studies on industry sectors, products, and practical applications of management concepts. The journal likes to publish problem-solving, decisional and applied types of cases. Such cases must have linkage with theory, at least one dilemma (also known as case issue) and a protagonist around whom the case issue will revolve. Publication of pure research, applied research and field studies with empirical data do not fall under the domain of SAJBMC. Fictitious cases are not welcome.
