Goal Displacement and Goal Conflicts in Circular Innovation Initiatives: Types and Mitigation Practices

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many firms set ambitious sustainability goals but these are frequently “displaced” by proxy goals that are easier to track and measure. However, the specific types of goal conflicts that follow from this displacement are poorly understood. We conducted a case study of circular innovation initiatives at a global MedTech company and identified ...

The Contingent Eco‐Innovation–Firm Performance Link: A Global Systematic Literature Review and Future Research Agenda

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The relationship between eco‐innovation (EI) and firm performance (FP) is central to environmental management research, yet empirical evidence remains fragmented and highly context dependent. This article presents a global systematic literature review (SLR) of 541 empirical studies (2006–April 2025) to (i) diagnose the systematic sources of ...

From Green Governance to Biodiversity Strategy: The Role of Environmentally Experienced Directors in Chinese Firms

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how directors with environmental protection (EP) backgrounds influence corporate biodiversity concern (BIO) among Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2008 to 2023. Drawing on Upper Echelons Theory, we argue that directors' environmental expertise shapes firms' biodiversity strategies.
