Summary: Adding green elements in logistics functions is crucial for shaping sustainable supply chains. Business strategies should continuously integrate and evaluate green elements to promote environmental consciousness. This study illustrates and validates its approach through sustainability initiatives implemented in frozen food supply chain warehouses in Saudi Arabia. The study uses a three-phase approach based on contingency theory and triple bottom line approach, and ranks sustainable practices using literature analysis, fuzzy Delphi, and Best Worst Method. The uniqueness of the study lies in its application of a combined compromise solution to rank sustainability performance improvement in warehouses. The results highlight the importance of green operations, sustainable work culture, strategies, and policies in driving sustainability performance outcomes.

Summary: A review of studies published in Industrial Marketing Management over the past two decades and more shows that partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) is widely used to estimate and validate theoretical models. However, researchers' reasons for using PLS-SEM are often not fully convincing and their assessment and reporting of measurement and structural models are insufficient. Advanced PLS-SEM analytic techniques are seldom applied, despite their potential for enhancing results' robustness and generating new insights. This paper aims to clarify the appropriate use of PLS-SEM by reviewing business marketing studies and provides guidelines and checklists for future applications.

Summary: This paper applies Stakeholder Theory to extend the Resource-Based View (RBV) and Knowledge-Based View (KBV) to investigate how choosing stakeholders with diverse motives and interests can impact collaborative innovation. The study explores the effects of collaborating with stakeholders with diverse motives and interests on the development of various types of innovations and investigates how access to diverse information sources influences the behavior of different collaborators. Empirical analysis based on Spanish Technological Innovation Panel (2015-2016) data demonstrates that collaborations with secondary (primary) stakeholders are associated with the likelihood of developing eco-innovations (product and process innovations) and increased demand for skilled workers. The study also finds that access to diverse information sources is associated with collaborating with primary stakeholders only.

Summary: The rise of blockchain technology has led to the emergence of decentralized platforms, less governed by platform owners and more through community efforts. Evaluating the tradeoffs between centralization and decentralization, semi-decentralization is hypothesized as a higher performing governance structure. Empirical evidence shows an inverted U-shaped relationship between decentralization and platforms' market capitalization, developer attention, and development activity. Experienced leaders can offset the tendency of digital platforms to become more decentralized, achieving semi-decentralization.
