Abstract

This study provides a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the intersection between digital literacy and business communication, aiming to map the intellectual structure, thematic evolution, and research gaps within this emerging domain. Using data extracted from the Scopus database, a total of 13,126 documents were analyzed through country collaboration networks, keyword co-occurrence visualization, and subject area distribution. The findings reveal that research in this field is globally distributed yet dominated by contributions from developed countries. The subject area analysis demonstrates a strong interdisciplinary orientation, with the Social Sciences and Business, Management, and Accounting fields contributing the majority of publications. Keyword mapping indicates three major thematic clusters: digital literacy in organizational and technological contexts, socio-demographic and health-related dimensions, and external communication functions such as public relations and reputation management. Despite the large body of literature, only six documents were identified as directly addressing both digital literacy and business communication simultaneously, highlighting a significant research gap. This study underscores the need for a more integrated theoretical and empirical approach to understanding how digital literacy shapes communication effectiveness, organizational adaptation, and strategic engagement in digital business environments.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the role of digital innovation in improving the competitiveness of tourist destination marketing strategies with a Systematic Literature Review approach. Literature sources were taken from Google Scholar, Scopus, and DOAJ indexers, with a focus on publications between 2014 and 2024. The results show that the application of digital technology in destination marketing has a significant impact on tourist attraction and satisfaction. Innovations such as social media, virtual reality, and digital content have proven to be effective in increasing destination visibility and enhancing the traveler experience. The characteristics of digital technologies, including their ability to provide real-time and interactive information, play an important role in influencing traveler decisions. However, the research also identified challenges such as the digital divide and potential loss of cultural authenticity that need to be addressed, as they may reduce the effectiveness of marketing strategies. Therefore, the balance between digital innovation and preservation of local culture is a key factor in creating an effective and sustainable marketing campaign. The findings are expected to provide insights for destination managers in designing marketing strategies that are more innovative and responsive to changing tourism trends.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices on the financial performance of publicly listed companies in Brazil. Using a quantitative research design and panel data covering 112 non-financial firms listed on B3 (Brasil Bolsa Balcão) over the period 2018–2023, this study examines whether ESG engagement contributes to firm profitability and market valuation. ESG performance is measured using standardized ESG scores obtained from international rating agencies, while financial performance is proxied by return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), and Tobin’s Q. The empirical analysis employs fixed-effects panel regression with robust standard errors clustered at the firm level to control for unobserved heterogeneity, heteroskedasticity, and autocorrelation. To mitigate potential endogeneity, ESG variables are lagged by one period. The results reveal that ESG practices have a positive and statistically significant effect on all measures of financial performance. Firms with higher ESG scores exhibit superior profitability and higher market valuation, indicating that sustainability-oriented strategies function as a value-creating mechanism in the Brazilian capital market. These findings support stakeholder theory, legitimacy theory, and the resource-based view, suggesting that ESG engagement enhances corporate reputation, reduces firm risk, and strengthens long-term competitive advantage. This study contributes to the literature by providing robust empirical evidence from an emerging market characterized by institutional complexity and sustainability challenges. The findings offer important implications for corporate managers, investors, and policymakers seeking to promote sustainable and financially resilient business practices in Brazil.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the impact of AI-driven personalized marketing on purchase intention in Chinese e-commerce platforms, with perceived relevance and consumer trust incorporated as key explanatory mechanisms. A quantitative research design was employed using a cross-sectional survey of active users of major Chinese e-commerce platforms. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to assess both the measurement and structural models. The results reveal that AI-driven personalized marketing has a significant positive effect on purchase intention. Additionally, AI personalization significantly enhances perceived relevance and consumer trust, both of which, in turn, positively influence purchase intention. The findings further indicate that perceived relevance and consumer trust partially mediate the relationship between AI-driven personalized marketing and purchase intention. The structural model explains a substantial proportion of variance in purchase intention, highlighting the strategic importance of AI-based personalization in shaping consumer behavior in digital commerce. From a theoretical perspective, this study extends the literature on digital marketing and consumer behavior by empirically validating the mechanisms through which AI-driven personalization affects purchase intention in the context of China’s digital economy. Practically, the findings suggest that e-commerce platforms should prioritize relevant, transparent, and trustworthy AI personalization strategies to strengthen consumer engagement and improve conversion performance. Overall, this research provides valuable insights for academics, practitioners, and policymakers regarding the effective implementation of AI-driven personalized marketing in e-commerce environments.

Abstract

Inclusive leadership has gained increasing attention as organizations seek leadership approaches that foster both equity and performance in diverse work environments. This study examines the effect of inclusive leadership on employee performance outcomes using a quantitative research design. Data were collected through a cross-sectional survey of 287 full-time employees working in medium to large organizations. Inclusive leadership was measured using a validated scale capturing leaders’ openness, accessibility, and availability, while employee performance outcomes were assessed through task and contextual performance indicators. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. The results reveal a positive and statistically significant relationship between inclusive leadership and employee performance outcomes. Inclusive leadership was found to be a strong predictor of employee performance after controlling for demographic variables, explaining a substantial proportion of variance in performance outcomes. These findings support social exchange theory and social identity theory by demonstrating that inclusive leadership behaviors encourage employees to reciprocate with higher levels of performance and organizational contribution. The study contributes to the leadership and human resource management literature by providing empirical evidence on the performance-enhancing role of inclusive leadership within a highly diverse organizational context. Practically, the findings highlight the importance of integrating inclusive leadership principles into leadership development and human resource practices to enhance employee performance and organizational effectiveness.
