Abstract

Compared to the studies on the effect of external dynamics in the literature, there is still uncertainty about the internal company dynamics that trigger eco-innovation. This research, which is carried out to eliminate this uncertainty, aims to identify and explain the internal company dynamics that reveal eco-innovation decisions. The qualitative research method was preferred to realize the research purpose and to answer the question of what are the internal company dynamics that stimulate eco-innovation decisions. According to the research findings carried out within the scope of the systematic literature review, eco-innovation diffusion depends primarily on its strategic approach and its support with R&D and human resources. Research outputs are significant in creating appropriate internal conditions for eco-innovation decisions, disseminating, and raising awareness thus increasing the performance of enterprises in sustainability management.

Özet

Literatürde işletme dışı dinamiklerin etkisine yönelik yapılan çalışmalar ile karşılaştırıldığında eko-inovasyonu tetikleyen işletme içi dinamiklerin neler olduğu konusunda belirsizlik devam etmektedir. Bu belirsizliğin giderilmesine yönelik gerçekleştirilen araştırmada, eko-inovasyon kararlarını ortaya çıkaran işletme içi dinamikleri belirlemek ve açıklamak amaçlanmaktadır. Araştırma amacını gerçekleştirmek ve eko-inovasyon kararlarını harekete geçiren işletme içi dinamiklerin neler olduğu sorusunu yanıtlamak için nitel araştırma yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Sistematik literatür taraması kapsamında gerçekleştirilen araştırma bulgusuna göre eko-inovasyonun yaygınlaşması öncelikle stratejik olarak ele alınmasına, AR&GE ve insan kaynakları ile desteklenmesine bağlıdır. Araştırma çıktıları eko-inovasyon kararları için uygun işletme içi şartlarının oluşturulması, yaygınlaştırılması, farkındalık yaratılması ve böylece işletmelerin sürdürülebilirlik yönetimi performansını artırması anlamında önem taşımaktadır.
