Abstract

This chapter applies stewardship theory to explain the effects of top managers’ postures toward green supply chain management (GSCM). It combines institutional theory and stewardship theory to examine the relationship among institutional pressure, top managers’ posture, and GSCM. The method of questionnaire investigation is adopted for electrical and electronic industries in Taiwan. A total of 1000 questionnaires was mailed, and the 180 valid questionnaires were returned. There are some main findings. First, institutional pressures have significant positive effect on the GSCM. Second, institutional pressures have significant positive effect on top managers’ posture. Third, top managers’ posture has a significant positive effect on GSCM. Finally, institutional pressures through top managers’ posture have indirect effect on GSCM.
