INTEGRATED AND DECOUPLED CORPORATE SOCIAL PERFORMANCE: MANAGEMENT COMMITMENTS, EXTERNAL PRESSURES, AND CORPORATE ETHICS PRACTICES.
研究企业如何以整合或脱钩方式回应社会责任期望,发现外部压力促进脱钩,而高层管理承诺则同时促进整合与脱钩,基于调查和档案数据分析。
Corporations can respond to expectations for socially responsible processes and outcomes in organizationally integrated ways or in easily decoupled fashion. This study focused on a particular type of socially responsible organizational process: formal corporate ethics programs. Theory suggests that external pressures for social performance encourage easily decoupled processes but that top management commitments can encourage both easily decoupled and integrated processes. Analysis of survey and archival data generally supported this position. Implications for social performance research, practice, and public policy are discussed.
