Encouraging Sustainability through the Implementation of Green Business Practices

This study explicitly examines the effects of energy efficiency, waste reduction, and environmental management systems in order to better understand the connection between greening practices and competitive advantage in the pharmaceutical business. The study asserts that implementing greening practices will positively impact a companys competitive advantage by increasing market share, customer loyalty, and innovation. It does this by drawing on a conceptual framework that positions greening practices as the independent variable and competitive advantage as the dependent variable. 426 Jordanian pharmaceutical company employees participated in the survey for this study, which provided information on their greening initiatives and competitive edge. The findings show a statistically significant positive association between the adoption of greening methods and competitive advantage, with businesses that adopted sustainable practices reporting increased market share, customer loyalty, and levels of innovation. A general competitive advantage in the market is a result of these events. The findings of this study have significant ramifications for pharmaceutical firms and other sectors looking to strengthen their market positions through environmentally friendly business practices. The findings highlight how important it is to adopt long-term sustainability measures and to appreciate the advantages of making investments in greening activities. Businesses can lessen their impact on the environment and gain a competitive edge by strengthening their market position by putting sustainability first and supporting environmentally friendly practice

Dynamic capabilities and their impact on intellectual capital and innovation performance

There is a high tendency for conversion from a statistical economy based on measuring tangible assets into investigating non-tangible capital drive in the present economic status worldwide. The implications of intellectual capital on innovation performance have widely attracted attention among researchers in the global arena. The present study investigated the impacts of intellectual capital on innovation performance in the banking sector as influencing non-tangible assets. Besides, the role of dynamic capabilities in moderating the relationship between intellectual capital and innovation performance was examined. A purposive sampling technique was applied to 364 partici-pants from Iraqi commercial banks as the research context. Thereafter, structural equation modelling (SEM) was utilised to analyse the collected data from the survey questionnaire using SPSS.v25 and AMOS.v24 . The study found that the employees’ levels of intellectual capital significantly increased toward innovativeness through the moderating role of dynamic capabilities between intellectual capital and innovation performance in the commercial banking sector for better competitive advantages. Consequently, the study provides valuable insights and guidance for academicians and practitioners on the impacts of developing intellectual capital on enhancing competitive performance, especially in the context of Iraqi commercial banks
