Identifying industry 5.0 contributions to sustainable development: A strategy roadmap for delivering sustainability values

Sustainable Production and Consumption, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 33, С. 716 - 737

Опубликована: Авг. 5, 2022

Scholars believe that the newly introduced Industry 5.0 has potential to move beyond profit-centered productivity of 4.0 and promote sustainable development goals such as human-centricity, socio-environmental sustainability, resilience. However, little been done understand how this ill-defined phenomenon may deliver its indented sustainability values despite these speculative promises. To address knowledge gap, present study developed a strategy roadmap explains mechanism by which delivers intended functions. The first reference model describes technical functional properties phenomenon. further conducted content-centric synthesis literature identified functions 5.0. Next, interpretive structural modeling (ISM) technique was employed identify sequential relationships among construct 5.0-enabled development. ISM involved collecting opinions 11 experts through expert panel meetings. Results revealed 16 Circular intelligent products, employee assistance, automation, open innovation, renewable integration, supply chain adaptability are examples identified. These highly interrelated should be in specific order so synergies complementarities them would maximize value gains. 5.0-driven is expected provide better understanding ways can contribute development, explaining managed their contribution values. also highlights important avenues for future research, emphasizing enablers Government or Corporate Governance

The emerging driving force of inclusive green growth: Does digital economy agglomeration work?

Business Strategy and the Environment, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 31(4), С. 1656 - 1678

Опубликована: Фев. 15, 2022

Abstract Inclusive green growth, which considers inclusive growth and is a sustainable development model that aims to pursue the comprehensive harmonious of humans, economy, society, environment. Against backdrop pandemic as well sluggish economic development, global economy endowed with driving mission may affect growth. This research primarily discusses influence digital agglomeration on its transmission mechanism in China. Specifically, slacks‐based measure directional distance functions (SBM‐DDF) was integrated Malmquist–Luenberger index (GML) calculate at city level for 282 cities China during 2004–2019. A measurement system constructed, degree each region further measured through geographic concentration. Based these analyses, this points out exerts positive The analysis indicates influenced by energy consumption, environmental pollution, human capital, industrial structure, technological progress. Moreover, taking “Broadband China” pilot policy starting point, spatial difference‐in‐differences (SDID) used analyze effect. results suggest conducive enhancing local while it inhibits neighboring cities.

Digital transformation: A review and research agenda

European Management Journal, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 41(6), С. 821 - 844

Опубликована: Сен. 24, 2022

The ongoing and ubiquitous digital transformation challenges the raison d'être of firms forces managers to rethink business strategies operations academics reconsider related theories. To aid these efforts, we conduct a systematic review research on firms' transformation, generating database 537 peer-reviewed academic articles analyzing it using novel multi-layered framework. framework separates three layers: an organization's core activities, its peripheral external environment. We find that have come far in their transformations are more embedded platform ecosystems with unclear boundaries. Relatedly, identify tension between decentralizing versus centralizing power across organizational layers during firm's how this dynamic affects corporate internal

Strategic sustainable development of Industry 4.0 through the lens of social responsibility: The role of human resource practices

Business Strategy and the Environment, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 31(5), С. 2068 - 2081

Опубликована: Фев. 23, 2022

Abstract Research on sustainable development is significantly influenced by the trade‐off between economic, social and environmental performance of businesses. Industry 4.0 a key business priority due to promise exponential increase in productivity, time efficiencies cost reduction. However, has been slow. Notably, human actors remain central 4.0, while responsibility component prerogative for industry, championed through UN goals European Commission. Therefore, we evaluate human‐related impediments critically explore how resource management (HRM) can overcome these barriers using socially responsible orientation. First, analyse challenges thematic literature review. Thereafter, an integrative review different research streams (Industry HRM responsibility), argue novel perspectives practices enable manner. Herein, address crucial gap. Our findings reveal numerous people‐related barriers, including change resistance, digital skills gap, employment threats widening socio‐economic inequalities, lack industry‐wide collaboration, leadership organisational culture challenges. We show that be enabler practices. These include strategic multistakeholder collaborations, holistic talent management, leadership, inclusive knowledge sharing, sponsoring education codesigning curricula, smart technology upskilling retention rewarding ideas. conclude with future directions.

Abstract Using panel data from 37 countries 1990 to 2019 and applying a quantile regression approach with fixed effects, we investigate the impact of national Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) performance on green innovation how this varies across different capacity distributions. The research conclusions are as follows. (1) National ESG improvement significantly promotes innovation. (2) environmental governance innovation, but in weak capabilities, social reduces output (3) role promoting is stronger capabilities. (4) In non‐high‐income countries, capability is, more obvious promotion findings paper provide empirical evidence policy basis for governments focus improving commit activities effectively.

Опубликована: Дек. 8, 2022

Abstract Although Industry 4.0 was believed to promote sustainable development, it has ignored or misunderstood many prevailing sustainability concerns, which led the emergence of 5.0 agenda. While desirable values are widely acknowledged, knowledge how this agenda can deliver transformation is lacking. The present study addresses gap, explaining should be managed facilitate development. Therefore, strives model underlying mechanism for enabling such transformation. conducted a content‐centric review literature and identified 11 actions approaches that serve as enablers further interpretive structural modeling structured an steps needed 5.0. Finally, developed strategy roadmap Results emphasized stakeholder salience, highlighting role integration collaboration in Proactive governmental support most driving enabler 5.0, whereas eco‐innovation value network reformation among complex hard‐to‐develop enablers. offer several implications policymakers practitioners, functionality each approach necessary determines sequential relationships these strategies identifies their optimal development sequence synergistically. identify codependences transition highlight interactions complementarities.
