How Environmental Innovations Emerge and Proliferate in Supply Networks: A Complex Adaptive Systems Perspective

Anand Nair, Tingting Yan, Young K. Ro, Adegoke Oke, Todd H. Chiles, Su‐Yol Lee · 2015 · Journal of Supply Chain Management

Summary. Environmental innovations in supply networks emerge through self-organizing processes that cross organizational boundaries, according to this qualitative study of two firms. The research shows that once innovations enter the network, they spread through decentralized coordination rather than top-down control by dominant firms. The authors develop a process model explaining how environmental innovations come into being and proliferate across supply networks over time.
