Research on the Imitation Path of Corporate Low-carbon ManagementA Multi-Case Analysis

Abstract

Benchmarking imitation within the fields is feasible for the corporate low-carbon management. Three cases of Danfoss, GE and Hitachi were selected to conclude their way to realize the low-carbon management. For verification, semantic analysis, context graph and a causal state diagram is adopted for the multiple case duplications. It is verified that Imitation is especially suitable for the enterprise which is at the beginning of low-carbon management and in a puzzle for the management mode. Imitative isomorphism is an effective way for the spread of organizational legitimacy.
