- W3134177191 abstract "Companies are increasingly expected to take responsibility for negative effects related to their value creation activities. In this doctoral dissertation, the responsibility a business firm has for the harmful social, ecological and economic effects stemming from its value creation activities is subsumed under the notion of value chain responsibility (VCR). Taking value chain responsibility is already a challenging and continuous endeavor. Yet, to complicate matters further, the external environment in which companies are running their value creation activities and VCR efforts is complex and challenging. In more detail, this dissertation focuses on two phenomena in the firm’s environment which considerably affect its VCR activities: the fragmentation of sustainability governance and the changing VCR expectations of stakeholders. Fragmented sustainability governance describes how the regulatory environment in which firms operate their business and conduct VCR activities is increasingly shaped by multiple and different governance actors (such as NGOs and companies) and governance instruments (such as voluntary sustainability standards and schemes). This fragmentation of the ‘rules of the game’ for businesses can have ambivalent consequences for the company’s capability to take VCR. Changing VCR expectations of stakeholders describe how stakeholders draw attention to detrimental social, ecological and economic issues affiliated with the firm’s value chain operations and thus demand action from the firm to resolve precisely these issues. Both phenomena have in common that they a) require the firm to draw attention to changes in its external environment and b) potentially result in or call for internal changes within the firm, e.g. regarding the way a firm manages its business operations and addresses sustainability challenges. Against this background, the overall objective of this paper-based dissertation is to expand our understanding how companies can take value chain responsibility in environments shaped by complexity, fragmented sustainability governance and changing stakeholder expectations. The four individual papers of this dissertation provide distinct contributions for academia and corporate practice: Paper I provides a mapping of the scholarly literature on the phenomenon of fragmented sustainability governance, sheds light on different facets of this phenomenon and illustrates management practices to deal with fragmented sustainability governance. Paper II elaborates on explanatory factors that help us understand the fragmentation of sustainability governance in the empirical case of the global gold sector. Paper III explores how companies as potential governance makers and takers affect and are affected by fragmented sustainability governance. Paper IV sheds light on changing stakeholder expectations and how they might impact the internal structural and functional organization of the firm to take VCR." @default.
