Item type:Publication, Sustainable palm oil certification inadvertently affects production efficiency in Malaysia(Springer Nature (United Kingdom), 2025-03-12); ; ; George, GerardSustainability certifications have rapidly gained prominence and become standards across many industries, yet knowledge about the potential unintended consequences of their criteria remains limited. Here, we use European Space Agency multispectral imagery satellite data in combination with economic and location data to investigate whether the certification process for palm oil production results in unintended consequences. Our results indicate decreases in plantation efficiency both prior to and following the certification obtainment. Our findings highlight the importance of considering possible unintended consequences of sustainability certifications beyond their immediate goals and criteria.Type:journal articleJournal:Communications Earth & EnvironmentVolume:6Issue:200Scopus© Citations 4 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Power Relations and Resilience: The Implications of Calls for Justice Among the (Un)Resilient(2024); This paper examines the implications of asymmetric power relations on resilience. Organizations located in developing regions are affected by the unequal distribution of resources. In extreme cases, such as for those located in small island developing states (SIDS), where the conflux of resource import dependencies and climate change pose existential threats, organizations rely on the ability of their host governments to negotiate favorable policies and resource redistribution outcomes in order to resolve distributive injustices and guarantee their long-term survival. This paper uses a multiple streams approach to examine how SIDS leverage narratives at the United Nations (UN) to combat asymmetric power relations, realize positive policy outcomes, and obtain climate financing. We first analyze argumentation across all dimensions of the discourse with a focus on obtaining resources to reduce their vulnerability and associated distributive injustices. We then explore the validity of our discourse analysis through a quantitative analysis of 2,922 UN General Assembly resolutions from 1975 to 2022. We find that SIDS narratives insufficiently realize positive resource redistribution outcomes, that many SIDS members situationally defect from cohesive voting actions, and that power asymmetries were not remediated. We extend organizational theory by exploring the relationship between extreme asymmetric power disparities and resilience.Type:conference paperJournal:Academy of Management ProceedingsIssue:1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Satellite Data as an Emerging Method for Organizational Research: A Detailed Overview and Use Case(2024); ; ; Gerard GeorgeWe introduce satellite data as a new data source for organizational research. Organizational theory is increasingly used to explain large scale ecological and environmental challenges. However, organizational researchers lack the appropriate data sources and methods to properly investigate grand societal challenges at scale. Satellite data is accurate, offers near-real-time availability, resolves information asymmetries, and is increasingly cost effective and user friendly, making it a lucrative source of information. We delve into the strengths and limitations of this new type of data, discuss various data sources, types, and associated methods, and highlight its potential through an illustrative use case, which explores the effects of sustainability certification implementation among Malaysian palm oil plantations. Through our use case, we find that sustainability certifications may encourage inefficient land use, which runs counter to existing findings in organizational and management research. In doing so, we hope to stimulate interest in the adoption of this method among organizational and management research.Type:conference paperJournal:Academy of Management ProceedingsIssue:1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
