Exploring the Direction on the Environmental and Business Performance Relationship at the Firm Level. Lessons from a Literature Review

“…Moreover, this unjustified difference of performance variables was also present in studies with specific goals, such as papers with a greenhouse gas focus (see Dragomir [94], Wang et al [101], Misani and Pogutz [103], and Trumpp and Guenther 2015 [71]) or papers that focused on a financial crisis period (see Gallego-Alvarez et al [97], Muhammad et al [104], Muhammad et al [105], and Trumpp and Guenther [71]). Furthermore, with reference of specific industrial sectors analyzed (Table 3, third column), we recognize a non-homogeneity of variables considered to measure EP and BP (Table 3, second and third columns): e.g., López-Gamero et al [77], Molina-Azorín et al [50], and Trumpp and Guenther [71] in services sector; Zeng et al [84], Figge and Hahn [70], Fuji et al [63], and Sánchez-Medina et al [106] in manufacturing sector; Kranjc et al [73], and Galdeano-Gómez [74] in food sector.…”

“…Galdeano -Gómez [74] Annual expenditure on environmental practices over sales (called "environmental performance") Sales margins, Market share (called "economic performance")…”

“…This lack of homogeneity was not always justified by different research goals or different research methodologies. For example, Eanhart and Lizal [72], Galdeano-Gómez et al [74] and Yamaguchi and van Kooten [75], although they had similar research goals, employed different environmental and/or economic indicators to measure corporate performance. This was also true for the following studies: Menguc et al [79], Molina-Azorin et al [50], Yu et al [81], López-Gamero et al [82], Horvathova [89], Perez-Calderon et al [91], Fujii et al [63], De Burgos-Jimenez et al [96], Qi et al [100], and Sánchez-Medina et al [106].…”

Recursos E Vantagens Competitivas No Agronegócio: Revisão Bibliográfica Sistemática Da VBR

“…Assim, é um dos recursos considerados como fonte de vantagem competitiva nas organizações (WRIGHT; MCMAHAN;MCWILLIAMS, 1994;KRETZER;MENEZES, 2006;FAVRETTO;ROMAN;SEHNEM, 2016). Segundo Favretto, Roman e Sehnem (2016), a RBV ajuda a compreender o processo de envolvimento dos recursos humanos nas organizações, através da aprendizagem pela prática, transformando-o em um determinante para o processo de aprendizagem organizacional.…”

“…Enquanto os recursos tecnológicos são em função da inovação empresarial, os reputacionais, para Forte e Moreira (2007) e Favretto, Roman e Sehnem (2016), são para promover o desempenho das empresas ao criar e manter uma boa imagem perante o mercado, por meio do alto nível de confiança dos produtos ofertados, por intermédio da qualidade, do relacionamento com os parceiros e a marca da empresa.…”
