“…Proactive environmental strategies and management should integrate with corporate innovation to make environmental sustainability efforts as a realistic activity (Wijethilake, Munir, & Appuhami, 2018). Environmental strategies reflect how managers perceive the importance of CER and balance the costs and benefits of corporate innovation (Gröschl, Gabaldón, & Hahn, 2017). Managers with a reactive environmental strategy only comply with legal regulations and view CER as burdens, whereas the proactive environmental strategy fosters firms' innovation capability (Liu et al, 2015;Song & Yu, 2018).…”

This paper aims to construct a comprehensive corporate environmental responsibility (CER) engagement measurement to examine the relationship between CER engagement and firm value as well as explore the mediating effect of corporate innovation on this relationship based on a sample of 496 China's A‐share listed companies from 2008 to 2016. The results show that when firms start to adopt environmental regulations, CER would have a negative effect on firm value; however, at a specific level, CER would start to enhance firm value positively. In addition to this, corporate innovation plays a mediating role in the relationship between CER and firm value. Corporate innovation promotes firm value of firms with CER more than firms without CER. Overall, the findings of this paper are extremely relevant for the government, investors, and firm's managers and can be utilized for policy and investment decision making. Also, the findings encourage firms to enhance their sense of environmental responsibility in order to enhance their competitive advantages, enhance corporate innovation capabilities, and thus enhance firm value.

“…Gröschl, Gabaldón, and Hahn (2017) performed an in-depth case study of the CEO of Puma to explore the evolution of CC, and the CEO’s views and initiatives on sustainability. Their findings showed that as this CEO developed a more complex mind-set that also included nonbusiness lenses, he developed a more inclusive understanding of sustainability and adopted proactive initiatives that went beyond “business as usual.” The time taken by leaders to differentiate and integrate additional cognitive lenses might thus represent a critical factor in the evolution of CC and proactive sustainability initiatives.…”

The role of school leaders is particularly complex in today’s “era of accountability,” which involves high standards for student achievement alongside frequently changing educational systems. Research in the business field has found leader’s cognitive complexity to be a predictor of leader and organizational effectiveness whereas the notion of school leader’s cognitive complexity remains undeveloped in the educational leadership and management field. Hence, the purpose of this article is to suggest a framework for school leaders’ cognitive complexity, as well as to suggest possible avenues for future conceptualization of, and research into this issue. Two empirical illustrations, based on the suggested framework for school leaders’ cognitive complexity, are described. This novel cognitive complexity framework may help school leaders develop processes, strategies, and structures that will enable them to react effectively in uncertain and dynamic environments.
