本研究运用全解释结构建模和MICMAC方法，分析绿色创业导向的关键驱动因素，发现制度压力、管理者环境关注、组织韧性和大数据分析能力是最具影响力的驱动因素，并在印度纺织业验证了模型。
Purpose The growing pressure on businesses to balance environmental sustainability with profit maximisation has led to the development of green entrepreneurial orientation (GEO), which proactively integrates green practices into core business operations. Grounded in the ecological modernisation theory, GEO acts as a green management practice which helps in achieving competitiveness through environmental innovation. However, despite the growing emphasis on GEO, there remains a gap in understanding how specific drivers influence the organisational structures and processes that lead to GEO. Therefore, the study addresses this gap by analysing the key drivers of GEO using an integrated approach. Design/methodology/approach In this study, total interpretive structural modelling (TISM) and cross-impact matrix multiplication applied to classification (MICMAC) were used to identify and interpret the interrelationship between key drivers of GEO. Here, TISM technique aided in constructing a contextual relationship-based structural model of drivers, whereas MICMAC assisted in categorising the drivers based on their driving and dependence power. A case evaluation was also carried out in the Indian textile industry to validate the TISM model. Findings The result indicates that institutional pressure, managerial environment concern, organisational resilience and big data analytical capabilities are the most influential drivers of GEO at organisational level, and other drivers act as secondary and linked variables in this process. The MICMAC analysis further supports the results of TISM. In addition, the overall TISM model is validated in the Indian textile sector. Practical implications The study findings will assist researchers and policymakers in adopting a systematic approach to prioritise GEO in pollution intensive industries. Moreover, it will help managers in leveraging GEO to achieve strategic advantages amid environmental challenges. Originality/value This study is amongst the first to employ an integrated qualitative approach to analyse drivers of GEO.
