This study aims to synthesize the literature on the top management team (TMT) characteristics influence on environmental disclosures of public organizations and identify recent trends, key themes, influential journals, and authors. Our study recruited 88 research articles on the relationship of TMT characteristics and environmental disclosures from 54 academic journals published from 2010 to 2021 for bibliometric analysis. Our study has identified three influential streams: (1) Role of Politically connections of TMT, good governance in environmental disclosures; (2) Significance of environmental disclosures and performance; and (3) institutional investors and environmental disclosures. Thematic map classifies the TMT characteristics and environmental disclosures relationship themes into four categories: Niche theme (e.g., financial expertise, CFO characteristics, CEO tenure, and board backgrounds); motor themes (e.g., environmental sustainability and climate change); emerging/declining themes (e.g., Environmental disclosure, managerial ownership, and CEO tenure); and basic/transversal themes (e.g., CEO characteristics, upper echelon theory, corporate governance). This study assists academicians, policymakers, managers, and consultants in the corporate sector to understand the role of different dimensions of TMT characteristics regarding environmental disclosures. Our study concludes with important practical implications and future research directions.

This study explores the impact of green transformational leadership and environmental strategies on promoting green innovation in manufacturing firms in Pakistan. It examines how such leadership and its strategies encourage employees to foster green innovation through effective knowledge-sharing and enhanced green absorptive capacity. The current study was conducted with a sample of 413 respondents collected via survey forms, and the hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling in AMOS. The findings indicate that green transformational leadership significantly impacts green innovation by supporting subordinates in generating new ideas, products, and policies. Furthermore, environmental strategies strongly influence green innovation, as green vision and strategies are essential for incorporating green innovation. The mediating role of knowledge sharing strengthens the relationship between green transformational leadership and green innovation and between environmental strategy and green innovation. The moderating impact of green absorptive capacity also proved significant. The study concludes that these constructs are vital antecedents of green innovation and provide a solid foundation for sustainable practices. This research contributes to the literature on the natural resource based view (NRBV) theory and green innovation by highlighting the roles of green transformational leadership, knowledge sharing, and environmental strategy. It offers valuable insights for executives and managers in promoting green innovation within firms and implementing eco-friendly strategies and policies through structured knowledge sharing.

It is well recognized that introducing religious principles during early life is crucial as it has the potential to impact and mould a child's perception of truth. Children possess the capacity to engage in two distinct cognitive processes when considering matters of morality and truth, which vary depending on the level of the child's developmental maturity. The purpose of this article is to delineate the process of imparting religious principles during early life, both within the family setting and early childhood education institutions. The study employed a descriptive qualitative methodology, which involved reviewing pertinent literature from the past decade (2013-2023), including theses, dissertations, and papers indexed by SINTA or Scopus. The research data consists of excerpts extracted from sentences found in diverse literature, which depict the incorporation of religious beliefs during early life. The data was acquired through the utilization of reading and note-taking methodologies. After being gathered, the data was examined using descriptive methodologies. The study's findings indicate that prior research on the introduction of religious ideals throughout early life has reported inconsistent results. Typically, young children are taught Aqidah principles, religious values, and moral standards that are tailored to their growth, traits, and capabilities. These religious ideals are imparted through the means of exemplification, habituation, parables, storytelling, and discourse.

Rapidly increasing environmental concerns drive corporations to enhance their performance through measures designed to make environmental activities appealing to stakeholders. Therefore, this study investigates the influence of strategic and regulation based motives on corporate performance and explores the mediating role of proactive environmental strategies, along with the moderating effects of business model innovation and competitive intensity. Quantitative data from the Pakistani manufacturing sector is gathered through a self-administered survey, and the hypotheses are tested using PLS-SEM with SmartPLS 4. The findings indicate that strategic motives indirectly impact corporate performance by adopting PES. Furthermore, the results reveal that business model innovation and competitive intensity influence the relationship between strategic motives and PES. This study has significant implications for managers actively seeking ways to enhance their corporates' performance through proactive environmental strategies. Moreover, policymakers can use these findings to inform the design of policies promoting environmental protection. This study contributes to the Natural Resource-based View (NRBV) and highlights the critical role of PES in enabling corporates to enhance their appeal to stakeholders and ultimately improve their performance.
