Abstract

Are companies adopting circular economy strategies or are they just adopting specific circular practices? To what extent are external pressures and organizational capabilities effective in driving these changes? To answer these questions, we propose and test a model that allows for analyzing the differentiated effects of institutional pressures (mimetic, coercive, and social) and organizational agility on the adoption of a circular business model at a strategic level and on the implementation of specific circular practices (in product innovation, production, and recycling). The results obtained on a sample of 218 manufacturing firms show that institutional pressures and organizational agility drive changes at a strategic level in companies, and these changes are ultimately reflected in specific circular practices. Organizational capabilities have a stronger influence on changes in circular product innovation and production, whereas external pressures have a higher impact on changes in recycling processes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
