Exploring the influence of family ownership and management on employee-centered corporate social responsibility practices in Brazilian firms Rômulo Alves Soares, Ana Rita Pinheiro de Freitas, Keysa Manuela da Cunha Mascena, Bruno de Souza Lessa, José Milton de Sousa-Filho Corporate Governance Bingley, 2026 Purpose This study aims to examine how family involvement in the management and control of Brazilian firms listed on the B3 stock exchange impacts corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices directed at employees. It explores the heterogeneous roles of family members in shaping CSR strategies related to employee welfare. Design/methodology/approach Using a panel data set of 202 companies from 2010 to 2022, the authors used regression models and propensity score matching to analyze the influence of family presence in executive roles, board positions and controlling ownership on CSR dimensions such as compensation, training and diversity rights. Findings The findings reveal that family members on boards of directors and executive management positively influence transactional CSR practices, such as compensation and benefits. Conversely, controlling family shareholders negatively affects all CSR dimensions, underscoring the complex dynamics of family firm governance. Research limitations/implications The study focuses on Brazilian listed family firms, which may limit the generalizability of findings. Future research should consider comparative analyses across different institutional contexts and explore broader CSR dimensions, including environmental and community practices. Practical implications Findings underscore the importance of the specific roles that family members play in governance for shaping CSR strategies, especially those targeting employee benefits. Social implications This study provides insights into how family businesses can align CSR practices with societal expectations, enhancing employee welfare and stakeholder engagement. Originality/value This research advances the understanding of the heterogeneous effects of family involvement on CSR practices, contributing to socio-emotional wealth and social exchange theories in the context of CSR and family firms.
Sustainable operations in the steel industry: a study in the business-to-business context Lucas Lopes Ferreira Souza, Juliane Araújo Cardoso Costa, Keysa Manuela C. Mascena, Aleixo Fernandes, Juliana Silva Costa Journal of Business and Industrial Marketing, 2025 Purpose This study aims to analyze the effect of environmental awareness and laws and regulations on adopting sustainable operations and whether this results in a competitive advantage for the organization. Design/methodology/approach A total of 176 Brazilian business-to-business (B2B) steel segment customers were analyzed using structural equation modeling and multigroup. Findings Sustainable operations influence green competitive advantage and environmental awareness influences sustainable operations. However, the relationship of environmental awareness becomes nonsignificant when laws and regulations are introduced. This result indicates that organizations in this sector have the knowledge to be sustainable but mainly implement sustainability practices when there are laws and regulations in place. Therefore, the role of the government in defining these laws and regulations is emphasized, along with the need for alternative ways for these organizations to become sustainable without relying solely on laws and regulations. Furthermore, even laws and regulations do not influence the sustainable operation of mature organizations. This is because they are aware, but this awareness alone is insufficient for them to adopt sustainable operations. Originality/value This study encompasses literature on institutional theory in the B2B context, first discussing how an external factor surpasses an internal factor in decision-making about sustainable operations. Second, the contribution also highlights differences in the influence of law and regulations on sustainable operations based on the age of the companies in the steel sector, considering the liability of newness and the legitimacy of established companies. Third, the research investigates how decision-makers on B2B procurement consider the influences on green competitive advantage in an emerging market.
Prioritizing stakeholders in project management: Application of the multicritery hierarchy analysis method - AHP Keysa Manuela Cunha Mascena, Fabio Viel Santos, Fabricio Stocker International Journal of Professional Business Review, 2021 Objetivo do estudo: este artigo tem como finalidade propor uma hierarquia de critérios de classificação de stakeholders em projetos de Tecnologia da Informação (TI).Metodologia: O método de priorização utilizado trata-se da metodologia AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) com objetivo de propor um ranking baseado em critérios pré-definidos que poderá ter sua relevância ajustada de acordo com a característica do projeto. Foram considerados fatores relacionados aos atributos de poder, legitimidade, urgência, interesse, influência e impacto dos stakeholders nos projetos, investigando-se uma amostra de 53 gestores de projetos.Originalidade/Relevância: O uso da abordagem da saliência de stakeholders e do método AHP fornecem uma ferramenta para priorização de stakeholders em projetos de TI.Principais resultados: Na avaliação de critérios que necessitam maior atenção na gestão, constatou-se que stakeholders com Poder, Legitimidade e Influência são os que costumam exigir maior atenção dos gestores de projetos, deixando assim, os critérios de Urgência, Interesse e Impacto como menor relevância.Contribuições metodológicas: apresenta-se um método que pode ser utilizado e adequado para cada projeto de acordo com seu ambiente e características, fazendo com que a classificação de stakeholders seja customizada e baseada em comparações e não em percepções.Contribuições para a gestão: refere-se ao aperfeiçoamento da capacidade de classificação de stakeholders em projetos de TI, apresentando uma proposta para priorizar as ações junto aos stakeholders mais críticos, sugerindo um método para ordenação que facilitará a atuação da equipe de gestão em casos de muitas pessoas com alta probabilidade de impactar ou ser impactado pelo projeto.
Corporate social performance and financial performance in Brazilian companies: Analysis of the influence of disclosure Anderson Pereira, Fabrício Stocker, Keysa Mascena, João Boaventura Brazilian Business Review, 2020 The relationship between Corporate Social Performance (CSP) and Corporate Financial Performance (CFP) has been widely tested in the international context; however, there are nuances that have not been fully explained, such as the possible influence of socio-environmental disclosure and studies in specific contexts, such as the Brazilian one. In order to contribute evidence on the direction of the relationship and the presence of moderator variables, this paper aims to analyze the CSP-CFP relationship, investigating if social disclosure moderates this relationship. The research sample is composed of companies that were part of the Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE) in the period from 2010 to 2013 and the hypothetical relationships which were tested by panel data regression models. The results show that there is a positive and significant relationship between CSP and CFP in both directions of causality; however, it was found that the disclosure of sustainability reports does not intensify or alter the relationship between these performance variables.
Sustainability practices and performance in the sugar and ethanol industry Ademir Antonio Ferreira, Joice Chiareto, Keysa Manuela Cunha de Mascena Revista De Gestao Social E Ambiental, 2019 TThis study aimed to identify the sustainability practices of companies in the Brazilian sugarcane industry participating in the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). We identified sustainability practices in the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) reports, in the social and environmental dimensions, and we investigated the association with the financial performance. We developed a content analysis of the reports disclosed by 18 groups of companies, controllers of 48 plants of Brazilian sugarcane industry participating in the CDM. The results indicated that the most indicators reported by the plants refer to initiatives and strategies for protection and preservation of the environment. As for the actions developed by the plants with the intention of preservation and environmental protection, we found 25 different actions. The most commonly performed practices are related to the reduction of cane burning and CO2 emissions; preservation or restoration of the Permanent Preservation Areas (PPAs) and Private Reserve of the Natural Heritage (PRNH) or seedlings cultivation; and electricity generation. We found out, through cluster analysis, that companies that reported more indicators in the social and environmental dimensions also have higher volume of net sales. This study contributes by presenting a performance analysis in sustainability of mills groups finding that there is still opportunity for greater disclosure of the mills sustainability performance, through the disclosure of more comprehensive reports for a more effective communication with stakeholders. This study also contributes to the literature deepening the analysis of a specific context and understanding the different levels of sustainability disclosure.
