“…This study confirmed the hypothesis that green production is positively related to green dynamic capability. This is consistent with the conclusions of previous studies (Augusto de Oliveira et al, 2019; Severo, de Guimaraes, & Dorion, 2018).…”

“…Severo, de Guimarães, and Dorion (2017) pointed out that the efforts made by enterprises are important to realize sustainable innovation. Although many literature sources have proposed that the main factor that drives enterprises to implement green production is external pressure (such as regulatory pressure), Augusto de Oliveira et al (2019) suggested that, compared with external pressure, the change of internal company's environment and stakeholders' demands can equally motivate enterprises to implement green production. Additionally, Lopez et al (2019) pointed out that a successful business model will support resource efficiency measures such as green production.…”

“…Regarding green production, this research study relied upon the work of Augusto de Oliveira et al (2019). In their study, green production was regarded as a second‐order formative construct consisting of two first‐order reflective constructs (green production practices and green production principles) comprising eight indicators.…”

“…Hence, green production principles represent the enterprise's understanding of resource conservation and environmental protection, including the enterprise's values, codes of conduct, and institutional rules. Consequently, green production principles limit some parts of the production process, provide a guide for the employees' behaviour, and ensure the long‐term effectiveness of green production processes (Augusto de Oliveira et al, 2019).…”

“…In addition, green production can be considered as a leading strategy for enterprises to cultivate and improve their green dynamic capability (Augusto de Oliveira et al, 2019; Thompson, 2019). In this case, the adoption of a green production strategy provides a route‐map for enterprises to enhance their green dynamic capability (Kjaerheim, 2005).…”

Improving green dynamic capability is an important business strategy to enhance enterprises' competitive advantage. This study proposes a theoretical framework that considers the business model and green production to analyze how green dynamic capability can be fostered by enterprises. In this study, 202 managers of Chinese construction enterprises were questionnaire surveyed, and partial least squares structural equation modelling was used to test hypotheses. Results show that: (a) the business model is positively related to green dynamic capability, so enterprises need to adjust business model to balance economic benefits and environmental responsibility; and (b) green production directly and indirectly affect green dynamic capability through a positive mediating role of the business model. This study extends the current literature on dynamic capability by investigating the relationship between the business model, green production, and green dynamic capability. This study also provides guidance for enterprises to enhance green dynamic capability and promote sustainable development. Highlights This paper proposes a theoretical framework that takes into account business models and green production to analyze how to cultivate and enhance enterprises' green dynamic capability. Takes China as an example to empirically analyze the impact of business model and green production on the green dynamic capability of enterprises, and eventually lay a theoretical guidance for enterprises to achieve green development goals. Good business model is positively correlated with green dynamic capability. The higher the level of green production, the stronger the positive relationship between business model and green dynamic capability.

In today's dynamic business milieu, the imperative of eco‐consciousness in hospitality cannot be overstated. This study focuses on Lebanon's burgeoning hotel industry, investigating its journey towards sustainability. Through qualitative content analysis and interviews with eight hotel managers, we unveil a crucial revelation: the integration of green practices not only enhances customer satisfaction but also engenders loyalty and positive referrals. This strategic pivot not only bestows hotels with a competitive edge but also positions them as champions of eco‐friendly experiences, resulting in tangible financial benefits and an expanded market share. Consequently, this fosters environmental sustainability within the sector, echoing its broader implications in environmental management discourse. Moreover, our research significantly contributes to institutional theory and stakeholder theory, offering valuable insights into the antecedents and consequences of green initiatives within organizational contexts. By delving into the intricate dynamics between institutional pressures and stakeholder expectations, the study provides a nuanced perspective on the drivers behind the adoption of sustainable practices in Lebanese hotels.

The growing concerns regarding sustainability and a firm's effects on the environment explain the important role that environmental management may play in corporate reputation. Following the premises of the stakeholder approach and dynamic capability theory, we explore how a comprehensive environmental management (environmental innovation [EI] and cleaner production [CP]) impacts a firm's reputation. By analyzing a panel data of European manufacturing firms, we show that EIs benefit corporate reputation. Results also confirm that the higher effectiveness of CP initiatives, the higher a firm's reputation. Both dynamic capabilities improve the firm's legitimacy and stakeholders' perceptions concerning the firm's commitment to environmental sustainability.We offer relevant insights for the academic community as to how EI and CP represent proactive strategies that enhance reputation and provide practical implications for managers in order to respond to stakeholders' demands.
