Project portfolio management in relation to innovation has increasingly gained the attention of practitioners and academics during the last decade. While significant progress has been made in the pursuit of a process approach to achieve an effective project portfolio management, limited attention has been paid to the issue of how to integrate sustainability into innovation portfolio management decision making. The literature is lacking insights on how to manage the innovation project portfolio throughout the strategic analysis phase to the monitoring of the portfolio performance in relation to sustainability during the development phase of projects. This paper presents a 5-step framework for integrating sustainability in the innovation project portfolio management process in the field of product development. The framework can be applied for the management of a portfolio of three project categories that involve breakthrough projects, platform projects and derivative projects. It is based on the assessment of various methods of project evaluation and selection, and a case analysis in the automotive industry. It enables the integration of the three dimensions of sustainability into the innovation project portfolio management process within firms. The three dimensions of sustainability involve ecological sustainability, social sustainability and economic sustainability. Another benefit is enhancing the ability of firms to achieve an effective balance of investment between the three dimensions of sustainability, taking the competitive approach of a firm toward the marketplace into account.

Differences Among NGOs in the Business-NGO Cooperative Network

  • PDF

Informed by the symbiotic sustainability model, this theory-building research compares a stratified subsample (N = 66) from 695 nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) that have relationships with U.S. Fortune 500 companies in 11 industries (N = 155). Using network analysis and centering resonance analysis, the research compares the "about us" statements of three groups of NGOs with different indegree centralities. The results of this study suggest that NGOs with multiple corporate partners are distinct from NGOs with single corporate partners. Across all levels of centrality, NGOs in cross-sector cooperative relationships tend to focus on children and be service oriented. In addition, federated NGOs were more likely to occupy a central position in the business–NGO cooperative network and foundations were more likely to have relationships with multiple corporations. Local NGOs were more likely to have only one cross-sector relationship and were, by a significant margin, the largest group. Propositions for future research are offered based on the findings.

Determinants of voluntary environmental management practices by MNE subsidiaries

There have been few empirical studies of the determinants of voluntary environmental management practices (VEMPs) of MNE subsidiaries operating in emerging countries. To provide insight on this issue, this study explores the antecedent factors that drive MNE subsidiaries to adopt VEMPs, using data drawn from a key emerging country – Turkey. Based largely on the arguments of institutional theory and the resource based view of the firm, a number of hypotheses are formulated in order to investigate the effects of stakeholder pressures, perceived polluting potential, customer focus and competitive intensity. Each of these factors, with the exception of competitive intensity, is found to positively influence the adoption level of VEMPs by MNE subsidiaries. Some of the study's parent-level and subsidiary-level control variables are also found to have significant effects on the extent of VEMPs adoption by MNE subsidiaries.
