Do Corporate Carbon Policies Enhance Legitimacy? A Social Media Perspective

By measuring corporate culture along seven dimensions (sense of community, strategic orientation, leadership, team collaboration, communication, team structure, informal relationships), Bulińska‐Stangrecka and Bagieńska (2021) found a significant influence of corporate culture on the conservation of energy and other natural resources in the manufacturing sector.…”
