Valores organizativos como apoyo para la economía circular y sostenibilidad

Autoría SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

RESUMEN

La transición hacia una economía circular (EC) requiere una profundización y comprensión de los valores organizativos, que pueden estimular y fomentar las innovaciones y actitudes sostenibles. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los estudios abordan los aspectos técnicos de esta transición. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este artículo fue identificar y analizar los valores organizativos que son esenciales para sostener una cultura que incorpore circularidad y sostenibilidad. Utilizando un enfoque multimétodo, identificamos 29 valores circulares y propusimos una definición para cada uno de ellos. Los valores identificados se debatieron en relación con su importancia para la sostenibilidad. Además, ejemplificamos con un estudio de caso la adopción de valores circulares y cómo esa organización está desarrollando esos valores. Este estudio seminal enriquece el debate sobre la importancia de soft skills para la transición a la EC. Además, fomenta la relevancia de la gestión de los recursos humanos para impulsar la sostenibilidad.
