What the literature leaves open

  • Future research may explore how these factors interact with competitiveness within digital platform ecosystems (Chong & Zainal, 2024; Gupta et al.

  • Finally, future research could investigate additional mediators and moderators, such as digital leadership ori- entation, organizational learning culture, specific digital technologies (AI, IoT, blockchain), and top management team composition, to further illuminate the complex pathways through which digital transformation is associ- ated with green innovation outcomes. The 2-to-3-week interval between data collection phases, while an improvement over single-phase cross-sectional designs, is insufficient to establish causal precedence for organizational-level processes such as digital capability development, innovation capacity building, and green innovation implementation, which typically unfold over months or years [44].

  • Future studies could explore additional mediating or moderating variables, such as organizational culture, leadership style, or digital capability maturity, to further explain the mechanisms linking AI adoption and firm performance. These finding advances prior studies that have reported mixed results regarding the AI–performance relationship by identifying an important organizational mechanism through which AI creates value. Strategic agility was found to play a crucial role in translating AI-related investments into superior performance outcomes, highlighting that technological adoption alone is insufficient without complementary organizational capabilities.

  • Research limitations/implications There is a gap in the literature with respect to agility, namely, that most research focuses on the characteristics of agile organizations, with little attention given to how to develop agile capabilities and embed the commitment to continuous change deep into the corporate DNA, beyond the process level, into the psyche of the people driving the organization.

  • Several well-known authorities have called for further investigation into these benefits, noting that a distinct lack of research exists, causing the field of corporate adventure training to have a cred­ ibility crisis (Bank, 1985; Hogg, 1988; Crawford, 1988; Darby, 1989).
