“…Indeed, this study allows us to give a preliminary answer on how we can prevent the occurrence of mission drift in SE. This question was asked by Battilana and Dorado (2010), Stevens, Moray, Bruneel, and Clarysse (2015), Stevens, Moray, and Bruneel (2015), Santos et al (2015), Ramus and Vaccaro (2017), and Civera et al (2021).…”

The sustainable social enterprises (SEs) literature shows that SEs have to simultaneously pursue economic, social, and environmental aims. However, tensions between these objectives can make this a challenging task and lead towards mission drift. This work investigates if the cultural dimension can forecast the mission drift. We empirically analyze this relationship in three stages. In the first stage, we identify a homogeneous dataset of 287 sustainable SEs from seven EU countries from 2011 to 2020. Then, in the second stage, we apply the data envelopment analysis (DEA) methodology to calculate the efficiency of the SEs. An efficient SE has to simultaneously achieve social, environmental, and economic aims. We calculate a proxy of the mission drift and generate a dichotomous category variable that assigns value 1 to the SE not affected by mission drift, 0 otherwise. In the last stage, we implement the 2SLS logistic regression between the variable that identifies the SEs affected by mission drift and three cultural dimensions: avoidance of uncertainty, masculinity, and short‐term orientation.

“…Furthermore, how social businesses solve social problems in difficult socio-economic circumstances (Maak & Stoetter, 2012) and how employees engage in innovative social networks in their companies or as co-creators in partnerships with other companies (Mirvis & Googins, 2018). Some investigate the combinations of strategies to deal with the most effective solutions in preventing the risk of mission deviation (Civera et al, 2020).…”

“…Steurer et al (2005), Konrad et al (2006), Atiq, Siddique, and Mufti (2018), and Yunis, Hashim, and Atiq (2018) seek to bring Stakeholder Theory closer to social business in order to analyze the economic, social and environmental dimensions of the business. On the other hand, studies proposed analyzing social value (Clyde & Karnani, 2015), deviation from the social mission (Civera et al, 2020), social marketing (Agarwal et al, 2018;Bublitz et al, 2019), knowledge management (Marín et al, 2016), financial management (Siqueira et al, 2018;Marín et al, 2016) and social inclusion (Grimes et al, 2018).…”

The objective of this study is to analyze the international scientific production on social business and its stakeholders. For that, a bibliometric analysis of the publications indexed in the Web of Science during the last 10 years was performed, with the help of VOSviewer. The main results indicate a representative growth in the last 5 years. There is a predominance of research in North America, in the Social Enterprise Journal and with a predominance of studies on social innovation. The study contributes by presenting a future research agenda focused on the need for empirical studies and on topics such as: social marketing, social impact metrics and indicators, social inclusion, social alliances and social value.

“…In the works of some scientists [10][11][12], attention is paid to the formation of enterprises' strategies for responding to the influence of various factors of the external environment. Thus, the authors of the study [10] offer to classify strategies depending on the degree of satisfaction with resources and their use, as well as on the innovative measures that enterprises must take in order to survive and develop their business in both the short and long term .…”

In the conditions of national and global transformations, which are taking place under the influence of factors of political and economic instability, one of the most important problems of the functioning and development of enterprises is ensuring their competitiveness. At the current stage of development of the world economy, which is characterized by high levels of instability and randomness of the course of economic processes, an urgent task of the management of economic entities is the study of their market behaviour, taking into account the existing and latent connections with both internal processes and external influences. Since all the types of economic activity react differently to the instability of the external environment, it is important to conduct an analysis of the operating conditions and the results of the enterprises’ activities based on them in order to form adequate and adaptive managerial responses to the tactical and strategic behaviour of the latter. The purpose of the article is to the formation of general recommendations for the development of strategies and tactics for the behaviour of enterprises of various types of economic activity on the market, depending on their sensitivity to the influence of external factors. The scientific methods that were used in solving the research problems were monographic, comparative and content analysis, graphical, structural and dynamic methods, coefficient and cluster analysis. The article proposes an algorithmic model for the formation of the economic behavior of an enterprise depending on the level of sensitivity of the type of activity, defines cluster groups of types of economic activity according to their sensitivity, forms a portrait of business entities depending on the expectations of enterprises and their comparison with actually achieved indicators. The implementation of the proposed model and the formation of general recommendations on the future behavior of enterprises, which are based on an analysis of trends in the development of the country’s economic activities in terms of gross value added, will be of interest to business leaders for the formation of a market behavior strategy
