Impact of Corporate Social Responsibility on the Effectiveness of Companies' Business Activities

Abstract

Background: Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has a great influence on the sustainability of company development, so it can be considered a business model for business effectiveness. Objective: The objective of the research is to determine the mutual influence of real-estate companies’ activities and CSR effectiveness in different countries. This study examines indicators for assessing companies’ financial stability, CSR, and working capital management's influence on the activity effectiveness of real-estate companies. Methods/Analysis: Questionnaires, the principal component method, the Sobel test, and linear regression analysis are used to evaluate the relationship between CSR and the business performance of autocratic management-style companies. The authors’ algorithm for assessing a company’s financial stability, CSR, and capital management, which affect the efficiency of companies, is proposed. Findings: Empirical analysis has shown that management has no mediating effect on CSR and enterprise performance relationships for companies with high financial stability and working capital, though it has a stimulating effect for low financial stability companies. CSR and business performance have positive relationships in companies, but despite financial stability growing, the autocratic leadership style reduces interest in CSR development. This paper conceptualizes the impacts of CSR on the effectiveness of companies. Novelty: The novelty of this study is to create theoretical and practical provisions aimed at laws and regulations.

Creating an Innovative Business Model for the Performance of Commercial Dental Clinics

“…A.V. Breusov considered models for stimulating the work of medical personnel, resource-saving technologies, personnel management, and increasing the economic efficiency of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of patients and their subsequent rehabilitation [45][46][47]. His studies lack scientifically substantiated trajectories of the economic development of CDOs in the context of digital transformation and the instability of the dental services market associated with external factors, economic shocks, and sanction restrictions.…”

Machine learning models for early‐stage investment decision making in startups

“…Financial indicators related to funding events, types, and amounts provide insights into a startup's access to capital, a lifeline for fledgling companies. Metrics capturing invested capital, burn rates, and sustainability signal whether startups have secured adequate financing to translate ideas into viable products and businesses (Hochberg et al, 2018; Vasiljeva et al, 2023). Since most early‐stage ventures are not yet profitable, ongoing funding is imperative for growth.…”
