Abstract

Drawing on the experience of recruiting organisations to participate in a study of workplace travel management (WTM) as part of a doctoral research project by the first author and what is known in the literature on corporate ecological responsiveness, this paper explores the role of internal organisational factors in influencing responsiveness to, and successful adoption of, sustainable business practices (including WTM). It is argued that an enhanced understanding of internal determinant factors for organisational responsiveness to change may enable: i) better identification of predisposed or proactive firms; ii) better discernment of success/ failure factors; and iii) tailoring of programs to better fit with organisational contexts.
