摘要

在文献中,组织可持续性认同倾向于被视为通过控制、报告、目标设定、战略沟通和其他工具在商业组织中“设计”的东西。通过对一家主要活跃于回收行业的公司的案例研究,给出了另一种理解。相反,一个独特的组织可持续性身份是一种社会结构,它基于对核心业务“自身可持续性”的认知,以及与客户的协作工作,被认为需要可持续的解决方案。以这种方式理解,组织的可持续性身份与正式的控制,如代码,政策,管理层用来定位公司可持续发展的报告,关系相对较小。相反,对于组织成员来说,将自己构建为可持续发展的过程建立在对核心业务的信念和对客户关系中表现出来的特定能力的拥有之上。文章通过其建构主义的方法,并通过确定形成组织可持续性认同的过程条件的潜在信念,增加了当前的文献。

Organizational sustainability identity: Constructing oneself as sustainable

In the literature, organizational sustainability identity tends to be treated as something that is ‘engineered’ within business organizations through control, reporting, target setting, strategic communication, and other instruments. Through a case study of a company mainly active within the recycling industry, an alternative understanding is given. A distinct organizational sustainability identity is, rather, a social construct based on perceptions of the core operations as “sustainable in themselves” and collaborative work with customers that is perceived as entailing sustainable solutions. Understood in this way, organizational sustainability identity has relatively little to do with formal controls such as codes, policies, reports used by management to position the company as sustainable. Rather, for organizational members, the process of constructing oneself as sustainable builds on convictions about the core operations and the possession of specific capabilities manifested in customer relations. The article adds to current literature through its constructivistic approach and through identifying underlying beliefs that condition the process of forming an organizational sustainability identity.

期刊介绍: The Scandinavian Journal of Management (SJM) provides an international forum for innovative and carefully crafted research on different aspects of management. We promote dialogue and new thinking around theory and practice, based on conceptual creativity, reasoned reflexivity and contextual awareness. We have a passion for empirical inquiry. We promote constructive dialogue among researchers as well as between researchers and practitioners. We encourage new approaches to the study of management and we aim to foster new thinking around management theory and practice. We publish original empirical and theoretical material, which contributes to understanding management in private and public organizations. Full-length articles and book reviews form the core of the journal, but focused discussion-type texts (around 3.000-5.000 words), empirically or theoretically oriented, can also be considered for publication. The Scandinavian Journal of Management is open to different research approaches in terms of methodology and epistemology. We are open to different fields of management application, but narrow technical discussions relevant only to specific sub-fields will not be given priority.
