Drivers and outcomes of CSR engagement in UK SMES
基于动机-机会-能力理论，研究英国中小企业企业家个人价值观和能力对CSR参与的影响，以及CSR参与对企业、社会和环境绩效的积极作用。
Building on insights from the motivation-opportunity-ability (MOA) theory, we develop and test a conceptual framework of perceived antecedents, contingencies, and broader performance outcomes of corporate social responsibility (CSR) engagement within small and medium enterprises (SMEs).By following a micro-level approach and using multisource data including a sample of 219 responses from UK entrepreneurs and objective performance data, we reveal the importance of perceived individual-level characteristics such as the entrepreneur's personal values and competence, as well as the moderating role of perceived firmlevel employee supportiveness in strengthening CSR engagement.We further highlight the positive effects of CSR engagement on a broad range of business, social and environmental performance outcomes as revealed by the entrepreneurs in our sample.
