Scholars and authorities are becoming more interested in environmental challenges, and experts have revealed their organizational consequences. At the same time, ESG reporting is regarded as a critical component of financial performance in developed and developing nations. In light of this, this study aims to investigate how China's manufacturing industry sales growth is impacted by ESG reporting, green innovation performance, green credit, green investment, and R&D intensity. Non-financial trade manufacturing companies listed on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges between 2015 and 2020 were selected for this study. For data estimation, panel regression estimations using OLS, fixed effects models have been used. The results demonstrate a significant positive correlation between manufacturing industry growth sales in China and ESG reporting, green innovation performance, green credit, green investment, and R&D intensity. Lastly, several practical takeaways are offered to boost green innovation performance among ESG reporting enterprises and increase the effectiveness of R&D intensity. These findings, including Policy recommendations, will benefit all parties involved.

“…The relationship between institutional theory and the board of directors is in the importance of corporate governance practices, decision-making processes, and the organizational behavior developed by firms (De Villiers and Alexander 2014). From a sociological perspective, the contribution that institutional theory makes is that it provides the tools to examine how forms and individuals establish social norms, values, and institutional rules (Lewellyn and Muller-Kahle 2023). From the information above, it can be derived that organizations adopt certain practices and structures not only for efficiency, but also to achieve their objectives through legitimizing and accepting stakeholders, such as investors, customers, regulators, and society.…”

This research aims to analyze the triple moderating effect of the board of directors in the country culture of a firm and its influence on the relationship between organizational innovation and organizational learning in corporate sustainability. A survey of 400 exporting companies of different commercial products from Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, and Bolivia was used to carry out this research. We used the structural equations model to explore the analysis of the causal and moderation relationships between the variables under study. As a result, it was found that the influence of the board of directors of a firm is essential for innovation processes because they drive their results to corporate sustainability. This last approach is due to the strategic approach adopted by large companies. In the case of SMEs, it was not possible to demonstrate that the board of directors has such a degree of influence. In the case of the moderating effect of the board of directors on the country’s culture, it was possible to observe that the board of directors becomes a factor in the firm’s performance despite its geographical location, which determines the influence of culture on its operation in corporations such as SMEs.

The environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance of construction enterprises still needs to be improved. Therefore, in order to better utilize resources effectively to improve enterprise ESG performance, this paper explores the configuration paths for Chinese construction enterprises to improve their ESG performance using the (fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis) fsQCA method. It was found that single conditions are not necessary to achieve high ESG performance. The improvement of the high ESG performance needs to be combined with synergistic effects of multiple conditions. The specific configuration paths consist of six types of conditions. They are the environmental goal and management-led improvement path, the environmental training and action-led improvement path, the environmental concept and partner protection joint-led improvement path, the environmental and social level synergistic improvement path and the two multifactorial composite improvement paths. Among them, the environmental concepts, environmental goal and management, environmental training and action, and partner protection are the core conditions. The other conditions also have a certain supporting role. This study will help the construction enterprises to effectively allocate resources and develop ESG strategies with limited resources. It will also provide a reference for the government to manage the ESG performance of enterprises.
