Objective: The objective of the study is to propose an instrument to evaluate the Competencies forSustainability in Organizations.Originality/Value: The importance of sustainability is clearly evidenced in the proposition of theSustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The skills for sustainability portray the commitment tosustainability. Understanding and effectively evaluating this set of skills is important to face theproblems of society and the planet in terms of the environment, economy, and culture, among others,through conscious and sustainable decision making. For there to be a more sustainable world, it isnecessary to understand that all obligors are agents of change endowed with skills that drive themto act and to change. What are the competencies needed for sustainability? By making available aninstrument that aims to identify competencies that promote sustainability, it is intended to expand thescientific discussion on relevant issues that can influence society and help in the construction of a moresustainable future.Design/methodology/approach: The items were compiled on the instrument based on the literature.After analyzing the content of the items, analyzing the specialists, semantic analysis, and pretesting thepreliminary version of the instrument was applied to a sample of 509 respondents.Results: A factor analysis was carried out that revealed two factors: strategic planning for sustainabilityand valuing sustainability. Together, the two factors explained 61.15% of the total variance of theconstruct. The 10 items have constitutive and operational consistency, and the results demonstratedthe construct’s validity with good reliability indexes, good factorial load, and good model adjustmentindexes.

Purpose: Smart cities are emerging as a fast-growing scientific research topic; much of the knowledge generated is particularly of a technological nature. The objective of this research was to identify how the articles approach the theme of smart cities from the perspective of innovation and technology.Design/methodology/approach: The methodological procedure consisted of a systematic review of the literature; the process was carried out in three main stages: planning, reviewing, and reporting/disclosure. The period established for searches was from 2006 to 2021, using the databases: Emerald Insight, Scielo, Scopus, and Web of Science, and the Mendeley tool was used to filter articles within the theme. Findings: After careful selection, 349 studies were found, based on the objective and relevance of this research. Regarding the databases, Emerald Insight presents 91 articles, Web of Science 83 articles, Scopus 101 articles, and Scielo 74 articles. About publications per country, Italy presents 12 articles, the United Kingdom 11 articles, and Spain and the United States 8 articles each. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has great potential to improve the quality of life of the population living in smart cities, innovation has always been significant to competitiveness and is vital to smart cities and tourist destinations. The sustainable and smart development of cities should be developed based on specific principles: synergy, creativity, and circularization. Originality/value: The research is considered relevant since the theme of Smart cities in innovation and management is relatively new in the scientific area. It is opportune that governments and citizens discuss what they want for the future of their cities, understanding how technology can be an exceptional issue among nations around the world. A unique model of a smart nation can emerge and boost cities over the next 50 years.

Purpose: This research aimed to evaluate the potential for resilient performance in the face of crises and adversities for companies located in the city of Santa Maria – RS (Brazil).Design/methodology/approach: We adopted a quantitative approach. The research was carried out through five sequential steps: (i) construction and validation of the research instrument; (ii) definition of the sample size and sampling procedures; (iii) data collection; (iv) data analysis and interpretation of results; and (v) elaboration of recommendations. A research instrument containing 44 questions was built and distributed among potential respondents, obtaining 87 valid answers, which corresponds to a statistically representative sample for the parameters adopted.Findings: Our sample was divided into two subsets, representing the Industrial and Commerce sectors. Resilience assessment accounted for four dimensions: the ability to respond, to anticipate, to monitor, and to learn. Results for both sectors showed scores ranging from 3.4 to 3.7 (out of 5) in the four dimensions evaluated. This reveals both sectors have been developing practices that positively contribute to the improvement of resilience, although there are opportunities for improvement.Originality/value: This research sheds light on the resilience ability of the cases surveyed, enabling managers to take action to strengthen their organizations and overcome crises and adversities. Additionally, our findings demonstrate how resilience abilities can be assessed, considering the scope of an economic sector and a geographical area. This approach can be adopted by researchers, policymakers, and development agencies to assess the resilience abilities of firms within their sphere of influence.

Purpose – The purpose of this article is to identify externalities in the chain and recommend strategies for the participating companies to either avoid or, at the very least, minimize negative externalities. Design/methodology/approach – case study, utilizing data obtained from different sources, including interviews and observations, in addition to other sources such as government documents, videos, and reports. Findings – The lack of a holistic approach to the supply chain hinders value generation in the region. Some externalities generated are prices below their potential, environmental consequences, and the perpetuation of social issues in the region. Research limitations/implications – The limitations of this study are related to the method adopted and the volume of conducted interviews. Thus, as in case studies, the results cannot be generalized. As a suggestion for future studies, replicating the method in other supply chains are suggested, which could be useful to confirm the mapping and analysis of the supply chain, considering the perspective of each link, covering them completely for a complete and detailed analysis. Practical implications – The analysis should not consider the success of an individual participant or node in isolation. For the supplies chain to be competitive, it is not sufficient for only a few nodes or participants to achieve positive results. Social implications – avoidance of environmental consequences and the perpetuation of social issues associated with the region. Originality/value – A holistic approach to the production chain can generate value in the region, avoiding negative externalities.

Purpose – This article aims to map how the literature treats the procedures adopted in transport logistics for live animals. Design/methodology/approach – To reach our goal, we performed a Systematic Literature Review on live cargo transportation logistics, considering studies published between 2011 and 2021. Findings – The review indicates that the long distances of the routes and the different modes of transport used had considerable influence on the welfare of the animals. Therefore, there is an international trend to reduce long journeys and to assign more relevant information on the geographical origin of products. Research limitations/implications – As limitations of this study, the sample analyzed in the Google Scholar database was small. More studies have been expected for the development of analyses and discussions on the current topic. Practical implications – Efficient and sustainable management can lead to higher financial and non-financial gains for supply chain members and compliance with standards for the appropriate treatment of animals, guaranteeing their well-being and providing superior product quality. Social implications – Live cargo transportation represents an important activity in several food supply chains, and its management may contribute to supply chain sustainability. Originality/value – The findings expand the knowledge available on live animals logistics, care regarding the management of each species, difficulties, barriers, and positive aspects of transport. Sustainability is another theme rarely mentioned in the studies analyzed, thus presenting an important area for future studies regarding sustainable management of the supply chain in transporting this type of load.

For data collection, the AGA methodology (Assessment of Degree of Adherence) by Lambert and Cooper (2000), adapted by Simon (2005; 2014) was used. Findings: the results show that the focal company has an "A" level of adherence, indicating a high power of influence and performance in chain management, both for the incorporation of innovations aimed at sustainable practices and for monitoring more responsible organizational processes, processes and relationships throughout the supply chain. This elevated level of integration may be associated with the elevated level of vertical integration in the chain, coordinated by the focal company. Research limitations: the results obtained can only be applied to the focal company and cannot be generalized to all companies. In addition, other evaluation metrics and/or endogenous variables not considered in this study may influence the results achieved. Originality/value: the originality of the study converges with the lack of studies that address the application of methodologies for evaluating the degree of interaction in the supply chain in the food industry segment. Thus, it is expected that the results of the study can be used as an instrument for analysis and reflection on the level of integration of supply chains, as well as to identify potential barriers to the implementation of supply chain management practices.
研究目的本研究旨在分析圣卡塔琳娜州西部地区食品行业供应链的整合程度。方法：这是一项采用定性方法的案例研究。在数据收集方面，采用了由 Lambert 和 Cooper（2000 年）提出、经 Simon（2005 年；2014 年）改编的 AGA 方法（遵守程度评估）。研究结果：研究结果表明，重点公司的遵守程度为 "A "级，这表明该公司在供应链管理方面具有较高的影响力和绩效，无论是在纳入以可持续实践为目标的创新方面，还是在监督整个供应链中更负责任的组织流程、过程和关系方面，都是如此。这种较高的整合水平可能与重点公司协调的供应链纵向整合水平较高有关。研究局限性：所得结果只能适用于重点公司，不能推广到所有公司。此外，本研究未考虑的其他评价指标和/或内生变量可能会影响所取得的结果。原创性/价值：本研究的原创性在于缺乏针对食品行业供应链互动程度评估方法应用的研究。因此，预计研究结果可用作分析和反思供应链整合程度的工具，以及确定实施供应链管理做法的潜在障碍。

Purpose – This article aims to analyze normative isomorphism as a mechanism for institutional change and its potential contribution to the institutionalization of the Circular Economy in the packaging market in Brazil. Methodology – A qualitative approach through in-depth interviews with a semi-structured script. 23 people from the First sector – government, 15 people from the Second sector – market, and 15 people from the Third sector – Non-Governmental Organizations were interviewed. The snowball sampling technique was used to select the interviewees. The content analysis was conducted with categories defined while exploring the data collected, a posteriori, with NVivo software. Findings – In Brazil, the pressure for socio-environmental product improvements is concentrated on a portion of the population. Most people focus on economic issues. In addition, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and supervisory government agencies play a crucial role in directly demanding that laws are complied with and in encouraging and instructing civil society related to the Circular Economy and sustainability. Research implications – this article contributes to filling gaps identified in the literature, such as Circular Economy studies that investigate the dynamics of stakeholders. Practical implications – the research shows that there is room for organizations that operate in the packaging market in Brazil to develop and disseminate actions related to the Circular Economy and sustainability to their consumers, which can become a competitive advantage in the sector. Originality/value – the research pointed out that the perception of those involved in this supply chain is still not unanimous regarding society's demand for a circular economy and sustainable actions.
