Do You Trust Your Boss? – A Jungian Analysis of Leadership Reliability in CSR
2006
It is essential for corporate social responsibility that staff can trust its leaders. This paper argues that trust in leaders depends on the relationship between the leader’s values, words and actions. If they are in line, employees can trust the leader. If they are not, distrust prevails. Five alternative relationships between values, words and actions can be identified: (1) values = words = actions; (2) values = words != actions; (3) values != words = actions; (4) values != words != actions; and (5) values = actions != words. They can be analysed and interpreted through the Jungian concepts of ego, persona (public ego), shadow and self. In alternative (1) leaders’ Jungian ego has develope…

The significance of environmental responsibility on airline customers' intention to purchase
2015
Operating in an energy intensive industry, airlines’ environmental performance is under constant scrutiny of the regulators and authorities. By contrast, it seems that not many airlines have considered gaining competitive advantage in by differentiating as an environmentally responsible carrier. The commissioning company for this Master’s Thesis was Finnair, and the intention of this study was to find out whether factors related to environmental responsibility affect Swedish airline passengers’ intentions to purchase from an airline. In addition, the study intended to offer Finnair suggestions for a suitable sustainability marketing-mix that could be used to target the intended consumer seg…
Interactive effects of past and present environments on overwintering success - A reciprocal transplant experiment
2012
Life-history traits are influenced by environmental factors throughout the lifespan of an individual. The relative importance of past versus present environment on individual fitness, therefore, is a relevant question in populations that face the challenge of temporally varying environment. We studied the interacting effects of past and present density on body mass, condition, and survival in enclosure populations of the bank vole (Myodes glareolus) using a reciprocal transplant design. In connection with the cyclic dynamics of natural vole populations, our hypothesis was that individuals born in low-density enclosures would do better overwintering in low-density enclosures than in high-den…
Exploring the impact of sustainable value proposition on firm performance
2022
Considering the immense potential of sustainable business models in tackling the broader challenge of corporate sustainability, this paper integrates the literature streams on sustainability practices and organizational business models to analyze the performance implications of a firm's sustainable value proposition. Based on the analysis of a large panel dataset across different industries, consistent with the proposed theory, a sustainable value proposition has been found to have a positive impact on a firm's market-based financial performance (namely, Tobin's Q). Yet, this impact turns out to be highly context-dependent. In particular, the findings reveal that a firm's R&D capabilities i…
Kohti yhteisen arvon tuottamista? : K-kauppiaiden ja S-ryhmän marketpäälliköiden näkemyksiä vastuullisuudesta
2012
Tässä työssä tarkastellaan päivittäistavarakaupan vastuullisuutta Porterin ja Kramerin (2011) Shared Value (Suom. yhteisen arvon tuottaminen) -mallin kautta. Tutkimuksen kohteena on kaksi Suomen suurinta päivittäistavaraketjua, Kesko ja S-ryhmä. Tutkimuksessa selvitetään myös sitä, onko liiketoimintamallilla (osakeyhtiö/kauppiasmalli, osuuskunta) merkitystä vastuullisuuden näkökulmasta. K-kauppiaiden ja S-ryhmän marketpäälliköiden näkemyksiä vastuullisuudesta tarkastellaan käyttäen apuna yhteisen arvon tuottamisen mallissa esitettyä kolmea strategista lähestymistapaa. Mallin perusajatuksena on yhdistää yrityksen taloudellinen menestys yhteisölliseen kehitykseen. Kirjallisuuden perusteella v…
