Abstract

Abstract The current study examines the role of knowledge management (KM) in green innovation and corporate sustainable development (CSD) activities. The researcher collected data from lower, middle and upper-level managers of small, medium and large-sized manufacturing and services firms located in Pakistan. The data was analysed through structural equation modelling (SEM) to investigate how KM processes, namely knowledge creation, acquisition, sharing and application, impact on green technology and green management innovation and environment, social and economic aspects of sustainability. As per the results, KM significantly impacts on green innovation and CSD activities. Green innovation also indicated significant positive impact on CSD. The dimensional analysis indicated that with the exception of knowledge creation and acquisition, which indicated an insignificant impact on social sustainability, all the paths indicated significant results. Moreover, KM is found as equally important for all sizes manufacturing and services firms.

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.
