@article{47920, abstract = {{AbstractIntegrated thinking (IT) is a managerial mindset increasingly discussed in the context of value creation. Through the lens of systems theory, this study examines how the degree to which IT is embedded in a firm's strategy and day‐to‐day business processes is associated with the firm's social and environmental value creation. Using a broad international dataset, we find strong evidence that our measure of IT is positively related to a firm's sustainability performance (SP), which we use to operationalize social and environmental value creation (or erosion). Our results also reveal that the increase in a firm's SP might come at the cost of a short‐term decrease in financial performance (FP). We find no indication, however, that IT induces a trade‐off between SP and long‐term FP. Integrated thinking appears to stipulate long‐term financial value creation instead. We further explore moderating factors within the organizational and institutional context of our sample firms and highlight implications for society, corporate practice, and policymaking.}}, author = {{Reimsbach, Daniel and Braam, Geert}}, issn = {{0964-4733}}, journal = {{Business Strategy and the Environment}}, keywords = {{Management, Monitoring, Policy and Law, Strategy and Management, Geography, Planning and Development, Business and International Management}}, number = {{1}}, pages = {{304--320}}, publisher = {{Wiley}}, title = {{{Creating social and environmental value through integrated thinking: International evidence}}}, doi = {{10.1002/bse.3131}}, volume = {{32}}, year = {{2022}}, } @article{47923, abstract = {{ Integrated reporting has widely been promoted as the next evolutionary step in corporate disclosure, which would soon replace traditional reporting practices. Embedded in a zeitgeist that favors sustainability, this outlook would suggest high integrated reporting adoption rates among reporting organizations. Our analysis of integrated reporting in Germany from 2008 to 2019 shows, however, that organizations approached integrated reporting with a wait-and-see mentality. This approach cannot be described adequately by the existing conceptualizations of (partial) practice adoption. We therefore develop the notion of wait-and-see-ism, defined as the deliberate and potentially long-lasting postponement of a decision to adopt a practice while its further development is monitored silently. We see limited, though continuous, efforts to prepare for the prospect of adopting the practice of integrated reporting quickly at a later stage. Wait-and-see-ism expands on prior work on partial adoption by emphasizing its temporal dimension. This adds an important yet undertheorized option that organizations can employ to respond to ambiguous institutional demands, thus explaining the stalling of promising management practices. }}, author = {{Endenich, Christoph and Hahn, Rüdiger and Reimsbach, Daniel and Wickert, Christopher}}, issn = {{1476-1270}}, journal = {{Strategic Organization}}, keywords = {{Strategy and Management, Industrial relations, Education, Business and International Management}}, number = {{3}}, pages = {{566--595}}, publisher = {{SAGE Publications}}, title = {{{Wait-and-see-ism as partial adoption of management practices: The rise and stall of integrated reporting}}}, doi = {{10.1177/14761270221078605}}, volume = {{21}}, year = {{2022}}, } @article{34191, abstract = {{AbstractSince the seminal work of Albert and Whetten, the organizational identity concept has become ubiquitous and highly relevant in various fields.

Modular SSTs which can be interpreted as modular multilevel converters with an isolated DC-DC output stage per module, are designed with redundant modules to increase reliability. Usually, each of the three arms operates independently, and therefore, only a fixed number of faulty modules can be compensated in each arm, even if all modules are operational in the remaining two arms. With the proposed zero-sequence voltage injection, up to 100% more faulty modules can be compensated in an arm by employing the same hardware. In addition, module power imbalances are nearly eliminated by utilizing a fundamental frequency zero-sequence voltage. A dominant 3rd harmonic zero-sequence voltage injection in combination with the 5th, 7th and several higher order harmonics with adaptive (small) amplitudes minimize the required arm voltages at steady-state. For nominal operation or symmetrical faults, the proposed technique is equivalent to the well known Min-Max voltage injection, which already reduces the peak arm voltage by 13.4% compared to a constant star point potential.

Closed-loop process control represents a promising approach for a solution in this context. The state of the art involves using this approach to control geometric parameters such as a length. So far, no research or applications have been conducted with closed-loop control for microstructure and product properties. In the project on which this paper is based, the local martensite content of parts is to be adjusted in a highly precise and reproducible manner. The forming process employed is a special, property-controlled flow-forming process. A model-based controller is thus to generate corresponding correction values for the tool-path geometry and tool-path velocity on the basis of online martensite content measurements. For the controller model, it is planned to use a special process or microstructure (correlation) model.

In addition to these direct effects, we also investigate the potential indirect effects of the CG mechanisms on SRQ and SRC via CSP and distinguish between nonlagged and lag effects. Using structural equation modeling, our results show that, in the short term, monitoring effectiveness positively affects SRQ and SRC. Stakeholder engagement positively affects SRQ and SRC in the short term and is positively related to SRQ via CSP in the longer term, indicating that active stakeholders, over time, may drive companies toward more sustainable business conduct. Finally, the findings that CSP is positively related to SRQ but negatively related to SRC provide further support for signaling and legitimacy theory, respectively. Companies with superior CSP disclose high‐quality information on CSP to signal the firm's superior sustainability performance, whereas poor performing companies legitimize their inferior CSP by complying with more reporting standards, rather than by directly improving their underlying CSP.}}, author = {{Manning, Bart and Braam, Geert and Reimsbach, Daniel}}, issn = {{1535-3958}}, journal = {{Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management}}, keywords = {{Management, Monitoring, Policy and Law, Strategy and Management, Development}}, number = {{2}}, pages = {{351--366}}, publisher = {{Wiley}}, title = {{{Corporate governance and sustainable business conduct—Effects of board monitoring effectiveness and stakeholder engagement on corporate sustainability performance and disclosure choices}}}, doi = {{10.1002/csr.1687}}, volume = {{26}}, year = {{2018}}, }
