Abstract

The integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles has become increasingly critical for sustainable business practices, particularly in emerging markets like Indonesia. This study examined how leadership dynamics influenced the implementation of ESG practices among Indonesian business leaders by analyzing their motivations, challenges, and outcomes in fostering environmental stewardship, driving innovation, and aligning business operations with broader societal goals across various industries. The research employed a qualitative approach, utilizing focus group discussions (FGDs) with leaders from nine prominent companies spanning sectors such as environmental technology, manufacturing, retail, and agribusiness. Data collection included both primary data from FGDs and secondary data from company reports and industry analyses. A three-stage data analysis process was conducted: (1) a thematic analysis to identify leadership approaches and ESG strategies; (2) a comparative analysis to assess sector-specific challenges and solutions; and (3) data triangulation to validate findings across multiple sources. The findings highlight the critical role of transformational, strategic, and eco-leadership styles in driving ESG adoption. Despite industry-specific challenges, shared themes emerged regarding environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and ethical governance. The results underscore the strategic advantages and societal benefits of ESG integration, demonstrating that effective leadership is essential for achieving sustainable business growth and long-term success in Indonesia’s emerging market context.

Abstract

This study investigated renewable energy strategies in Malaysia, Denmark, and Japan to derive actionable insights for Indonesia’s energy transition. The objective was to explore effective approaches for achieving net-zero emissions in state-owned energy enterprises within developing countries. A comparative analysis methodology was employed, incorporating benchmarking interviews with policymakers, industry experts, and regulators from the three countries, as well as the review of official energy strategy documents. Malaysia emphasized diversifying its energy mix through supportive policies and advancements in solar, hydro, and biomass technologies. Denmark achieved remarkable success through a liberalized energy market and robust regulatory support, particularly for wind power. Japan, shaped by its post-Fukushima context, focused on energy independence via investments in solar, wind, and geothermal technologies. The findings revealed that Indonesia could benefit from adopting a diversified energy portfolio, establishing stable policy frameworks, increasing investments in research and development, modernizing its power grid, and engaging local communities. This study concluded that aligning Indonesia’s energy policies with technological capabilities and regulatory environments is essential to achieving a sustainable energy transition and meeting net-zero targets.

Abstract

The urgent need to align banking practices with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has become increasingly apparent, particularly in the context of fostering industry, innovation, and infrastructure. The primary issue at hand is the insufficient integration of SDG 9 into banks’ core strategies and operations, despite its critical importance for sustainable development. The novelty of this study lies in its detailed examination of the extent to which Indonesian banks support SDG 9 through their reported activities, an area that has been underexplored in previous research. This research aimed to investigate the level of support from banking industries to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a particular focus on SDG 9: industry, innovation, and infrastructure. This study utilized a content analysis approach to collect secondary data from the sustainability reports of 44 banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange between 2017 and 2020, resulting in 176 observations. In cases where sustainability reports were unavailable, annual and combined reports were used as unit analyses. The findings revealed that Indonesian banks have undertaken various activities to support SDGs, and there has been an increasing trend in disclosure from 2017 to 2020. However, the study found that a significant role of technology transformation, which should lead to innovation and support for SDG 9, was lacking. This finding suggests that SDGs are still primarily measured by external activities rather than internal activities, despite the importance of business strategy in supporting SDGs. Another significant finding was that micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) received the most support for sustainable business activity categories (SBAC). The research contributes to the literature by providing insights into the level of support for SDG 9 and SBACs. The study also underscores the importance of measuring the impact of digital banking services, which have been widely implemented, and the need for significant support for SBAs in the environmental sector.
