Weaving Regenerative Value Through Nature-Inclusive Stakeholder Engagement: Insights From Indigenous Businesses in the Sierra Nevada
基于对哥伦比亚内华达山脉四个原住民群体企业代表的27次访谈，研究了企业如何将自然视为利益相关者并与之互动，从而创造再生价值。
Nature-inclusive stakeholder engagement, grounded in Western epistemologies and ontologies, embraces organizational relationships with nature entities considered as stakeholders. Although this construct has conceptual links to regenerative value creation, how it unfolds in an organizational setting remains unclear. This qualitative study informs nature-inclusive stakeholder engagement from a managerial perspective by exploring how Indigenous businesses of the Arhuaco ( Wíntukua ), Kogui ( Kággaba ), Wiwa ( Arzario ), and Kankuamo ( Kaku’chukwa ) peoples of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia, consider nature relationships. The article relies on 27 semi-structured interviews with Indigenous business representatives, secondary literature (co-)authored by the Indigenous peoples of the Sierra Nevada, and observation data. The empirical findings provide insight into a nature-inclusive stakeholder engagement mindset, related interactions, and resulting regenerative value. Adopting Two-Eyed Seeing, the article proposes multidimensional nature-inclusive stakeholder engagement that embraces nature relationships through a relational stakeholder approach, wherein nature informs regenerative value creation as a guide.
