    Keywords : Sustainability Managers; Institutional Entrepreneurship; Sustainability Logic; Sustainable Business Development; Institutional Theory; Institutional Logic; Qualitative Research;

    Abstract : Societal expectations towards corporations to include social, environmental and ethical considerations have grown in importance, and corporations largely depend on so-called sustainability managers to help them meet these expectations.
