Why is it important?

The study reveals a gap between managerial support and process and market-oriented practices. While top management vision is connected to an environmental culture, this support is not directly translated to operational and marketing activities. The paper reveals that process-oriented activities contribute to economic performance by improving environmental performance. Market activities do not impact environmental performance but contribute to create external competitive advantages.
