Purpose

This paper aims to investigate the interlinks between different forms of organisational culture (OC), supply chain (SC) integration, green supply chain management (GSCM) practices. It adopts a green human resource management (GHRM) perspective on knowledge, skills and abilities (KSAs) dynamics to shed light on the drivers that facilitate the implementation of green practices along with the SC.

Design/methodology/approach

The study adopts a quantitative approach through a survey administered to 381 formally appointed Italian SC managers, combining two methodological approaches, namely, the collection of self-reported information regarding the perceived OC, SC integration and GSCM practices in respondent’s organisations and an experimental design aimed at collecting the expected links between GHRM and the firm’s performance in different neutral conditions.

Findings

The results highlight that it is necessary to observe the disaggregated paths that link the different types of OC and dimensions of SC integration to benefit from a path-specific rationale for each GSCM practice. Insights on how different dimensions of SC integration mediate the relations between different OCs and GSCM practices, in the light of the role played by KSAs in the pursuit of the firm’s sustainable performance, reveal the relative importance of establishing strong relationships with customers and among the actors involved in the production process.

Practical implications

This paper provides directions for collaboration among SC and HR managers in the pursuit of GSCM.

Originality/value

This paper adopts an original classification of both OC and SC integration, identifying the existence of previously unrevealed nexuses. Additionally, it provides an original contribution to the extant literature by separately analysing each GSCM practice and, thus, offering detailed insights on their drivers.

探索 GSCM 与组织文化之间的关系：关于供应链整合作用的见解

目的

本文旨在研究不同形式的组织文化 (OC)、供应链 (SC) 整合、绿色供应链管理 (GSCM) 实践之间的相互联系。它采用绿色人力资源管理 (GHRM) 视角看待知识、技能和能力 (KSA) 动态，以阐明促进绿色实践与 SC 实施的驱动因素。

设计/方法/方法

该研究采用定量方法，通过对 381 名正式任命的意大利 SC 经理进行调查，结合两种方法论方法，即收集有关受访者组织中感知到的 OC、SC 整合和 GSCM 实践的自我报告信息，以及旨在收集不同中性条件下 GHRM 与公司绩效之间的预期联系。

发现

结果强调，有必要观察将不同类型的 OC 和 SC 整合维度联系起来的分解路径，以便从每个 GSCM 实践的路径特定原理中受益。鉴于 KSA 在追求公司可持续绩效方面发挥的作用，对 SC 整合的不同维度如何调解不同 OC 和 GSCM 实践之间的关系的见解揭示了与客户和参与者之间建立牢固关系的相对重要性参与生产过程。

实际影响

本文为 SC 和 HR 经理在追求 GSCM 方面的合作提供了方向。

原创性/价值

本文采用了 OC 和 SC 集成的原始分类，确定了以前未揭示的关系的存在。此外，它通过分别分析每个 GSCM 实践并因此提供有关其驱动因素的详细见解，为现有文献提供了原创性贡献。
