Large organizations and corporations’ main decisions lay in the hands of a
few. As these business agents are the most influential contributors to the
countries’ business environment, due to their strong and extensive
relationships with almost every society’s spheres, their governance
behavior are able to provide valuable insights about growth, power, and
development dynamics within the organizational landscape (Carroll &
Fennema, 2002; Hambrick, 2007; Pettigrew, 1992). Nowadays, stakeholders’
demands represent several sustainability challenges for organizations since
they have to overcome these from different strategic perspectives such as
developing innovation, achieving economic growth, standing for corporate
reputation, entering into the digital revolution, facing important social
issues, and soon (Aguilera et al., 2007; Gomez-Trujillo et al., 2020; Ogaga
et al., 2019). Hence, both, formal as well as informal mechanisms for
corporate governance come up with different ways to understand how
organizations’ leaders deal with their essential tasks such as control,
supervision, and management (Cordova, 2018; La Porta et al., 2000; Shleifer
& Vishny, 1997: Osedo et al., 2020), through their way to perform those
major perspectives. As an additional challenge to this, emerging markets’
environment provide opportunities as well as constraints (Letting et al.,
2012; Ongore, 2011; Wasike & Owino, 2020) to mobilize those corporate
governance efforts toward sustainability concerns (Clarke, 2015;
Gomez-Trujillo & Gonzalez-Perez, 2020), while business leaders guide their
vessels through increasingly risky scenarios.
