Abstract

Recent studies have emerged that highlight the critical role of green entrepreneurial orientation (GEO) in achieving sustainability in a business context. However, knowledge of drivers of GEO and how and when GEO influences corporate environmental performance (CEP) is limited and lacks clarity. Therefore, this review aims to enrich the present literature on environmental research and practice by synthesizing the literature regarding drivers of GEO in organizations. Moreover, it highlights underdeveloped and overlooked areas regarding mediating and moderating factors that influence GEO and CEP links. Thus, this review advances the research by proposing the conceptual framework using the identified gaps in the literature, suggesting that the micro, meso, and macro-level factors enhance the adoption of GEO in organizations. This also shows that organizational factors mediate the relationship between GEO and CEP while socio-demographic characteristics and favorable contextual factors moderates the GEO–CEP link. In addition, it calls for researchers to turn attention from the importance of the process to finding how GEO can be improved to enhance environmental performance.
