“…There is growing scholarly interest in how to measure CSR outcomes effectively, not just in terms of company performance but also in terms of social and environmental impact. In the context of "stakeholder", there is a trend towards adopting more collaborative approaches to CSR, where stakeholders play a more active role in shaping CSR policies and practices [75][76][77][78]. The link between "consumers" and "brand" implies an increasing interest in how CSR initiatives influence consumer behavior, brand perception, and loyalty [79][80][81][82].…”

The aim of this study is to perform a bibliometric analysis of corporate social responsibility (CSR) research in the airline industry, underscoring current developments and future trends. Utilizing open-source R software (version 4.2.3), including the Bibliometrix R library (version 4.1.4) and VOSviewer (version 1.6.20), this study notes a significant rise in CSR research. It highlights influential studies, leading scholars, and key journals in the field. The co-word analysis shows CSR’s impact on efficiency, value, employee perceptions, and customer loyalty. Post-COVID trends indicate an expanded focus on health, safety, and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors. The research suggests a shift towards integrated CSR strategies in the airline industry, emphasizing sustainability, stakeholder inclusion, and transparent reporting. This shift marks a movement towards more comprehensive and effective CSR approaches in stakeholder communication.

“…Banks' commitment to the environment can be determined by analyzing their strategy and using the following indicators: using bank resources in a reasonable manner, managing the risk of lending money to projects that damage the environment, and evaluating companies' financing for environmental risk, as indicated in Jacobs et al (2010), Gangi et al (2019), Laguir et al (2018), Gunawan et al (2022) and Ben Lahouel et al (2022). Along these lines, Miralles‐Quirós et al (2019b) affirmed that most banks in Europe contribute to reducing environmental problems by reducing electricity use, using renewable energy, and evaluating policies related to environmental address.…”

In response to the need to deepen research on the impact of corporate ESG (environmental, social, and governance) pillars on the financial performance (FP) of banks, this study analyzes the relationship between ESG and FP in banks from emerging countries in Southeast Asia during the period 2010–2020. Using a sample of 19 banks from five countries with emerging economies, this article examines the level of information on ESG activities that banks report in each of their pillars and these pillars' impact on the FP. The research was conducted through an exploratory study using panel data (Thomson Reuters ESG data), parametric correlations, and regression models. FP is measured by return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), and Tobin's Q (TQ), or the prevailing market price for exchanging assets divided by the market price of the goods newly produced. The findings show that ESG has a significant negative effect on all measures of FP (ROA, ROE, and TQ). However, analysis of the relationship of each individual ESG pillar to FP obtains different findings for each. Our study also shows differences in the level of ESG information in each country as a result of their specific economic characteristics. This study has limitations due to the limited ESG, bank, and country data that Thomson Reuters contains on banks in this region of Asia. In future research, more banks and more countries can be added to the analysis, as well as other control variables related to FP.

“…However, sustainability has found some resistance from a few managers that question its daily applicability in planning and to what extent may contribute to an organization's ability to create profit and continuously innovate [31][32][33] also calls attention to whether there is the possibility of "doing well by doing green", which is constantly debated in the literature, but no consensus has been reached to date. On this point, the possible challenges of environmental sustainability, which require managers need to understand the necessary changes to support goal achievement, generate doubt about the effectiveness of strategic planning for the company.…”

Organizations are continuously pushed to be more competitive, with a broader strategic planning framework that deals with sustainable dilemmas and creates new demands for inclusion. This study aims to investigate the relationship between environmental responsibility and workforce retention, as well as the role of environmental responsibility in strategic planning. The findings of this research will contribute to a greater understanding of how social responsibility can improve employee retention and lead to a more efficient and effective outcome. Using a quantitative method, we surveyed n = 311 respondents and conducted a bibliometric analysis using the Web of Science and ScienceDirect databases to gather relevant information on the topic. The findings of this study will provide insights into how social responsibility can improve employee retention and enhance organizational efficiency and effectiveness. The results address the value of implementing environmental guidelines in strategic planning, the contribution of top management, and pro-environmental policies with the intention to apply them, and encourage the sharing of knowledge and best practices.
