Managers' Perceptions & Actions towards Sustainable Development: Environmental & Social Practices in Greece
Dr Georgios A. Deirmentzoglou, Dr Konstantina K. Agoraki and Dr. Fousteris E. Andreas

Abstract:
This study investigates the environmental and social practices in Greece. Particularly, it examines Greek managers' perceptions and practices towards corporate sustainable development (CSD). CEOs of medium- and large-sized firms are asked to rate the importance of each practice and to what extent does their organization implement this practice. The results revealed that there is a significant difference between managers' perceptions and the actual levels of CSD. Even though managers consider CSD practices as important, the levels of CSD are significantly lower. This means that Greek CEOs have to overcome barriers to achieve the CSD levels they are willing to.
