Outline of Research at the Start |
This research aims to advancing the international business theories related to multinational corporations (MNCs)’ responses to societal sustainability needs in the global supply chains as the result of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. This research highlights capability of transferring sustainability practices, institutional conditions, supply chain governance, and multi-level stakeholders that would shape such MNCs’ responses. This proposal also provides managerial and policy guidelines that address societal expectations and create sustainable business and living environments.

Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Based on the past research in the globalization, deglobalization, and reconfiguration of global value chain of Asian multinational enterprises in the post COVID-19 era, in FY2023, I have continued to complete the research papers to provide recommendations on how their sustainability strategies could address the sustainability goals of all concerned stakeholders. In particular, I have discussed several emerging issues, including geopolitical issues related to the governments and the risk management, the prioritization of investors/ shareholders, the governments, NPOs, and societies, and the dynamic capabilities and flexibility in the reconfiguration of global value chain from an interdisciplinary, multilevel approach, and a phenomena-driven perspective.
