在本研究中，我们对中国公司的可持续发展问题进行了研究。在相关研究的基础上，提出了企业环境承诺、文化价值、员工培训与企业可持续发展绩效之间关系的理论模型。有人认为，文化价值观(即组织的未来取向)应该是预测商业环境承诺的关键因素。另一方面，公司的可持续业绩，如在环境保护方面的业绩，应该是其商业环境承诺的主要结果。此外，员工培训水平对企业环境承诺与可持续绩效之间的关系具有正向调节作用。在其他条件相同的情况下，员工培训越好，企业环境承诺与可持续发展绩效的关系越强。通过检验中国的相关假设，我们发现了支持本文提出的模型的证据。最后，我们讨论了我们的发现对学术研究人员和从业者的影响。
In this research, we study the issues of corporate sustainable development in China. Based on relevant research, we propose a theoretical model showing the relationship among business environmental commitment, cultural value, employee training, and firm performance of sustainable development. It is argued that a cultural value (i.e., organizational future orientation) should be a key antecedent predicting business environmental commitment. On the other hand, a firm's sustainable performance, such as performance in environmental protection, should be a major consequence of its business environmental commitment. Moreover, the relationship between business environmental commitment and sustainable performance can be moderated positively by the level of employee training. Other conditions being equal, the better the employee training is, the stronger the relationship between business environmental commitment and sustainable development performance. Testing the relevant hypotheses in China, we find evidence supporting our model proposed in this paper. We conclude with a discussion on the implications of our findings for academic researchers and practitioners.
