Por meio de uma pesquisa exploratória e descritiva foi realizado um estudo de caso numa empresa sucroalcooleira. Os dados primários foram obtidos de entrevistas com diversos atores sociais. As práticas ambientais apresentaram um posicionamento estratégico oportunista; a competitividade mostrou-se moderada e a sustentabilidade foi observada com um nível de alerta. Os resultados indicam que as relações entre as variáveis ocorrem de forma indireta e faz-se necessário um modelo de gestão com maior conformidade aos interesses e necessidades dos seus stakeholders, em especial aqueles mais ligados à localidade.Latin American Journal of Business ManagementLatin American Journal of Business ManagementLatin American Journal of Business Management2014-02-08info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por paresapplication/pdfhttps://www.lajbm.com.br/index.php/journal/article/view/170Latin American Journal of Business Management; Vol. 4 No. 2 (2013)Latin American Journal of Business Management; Vol. 4 Núm. 2 (2013)Latin American Journal of Business Management; v. 4 n. 2 (2013)2178-4833reponame:Latin American Journal of Business Managementinstname:Universidade de Taubaté (UNITAU)instacron:UNITAUporhttps://www.lajbm.com.br/index.php/journal/article/view/170/89Barbosa, Maria de Fátima NóbregaCândido, Gesinaldo Ataí­deinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2014-02-08T20:52:46Zoai:ojs2.lajbm.com.br:article/170Revistahttps://www.lajbm.com.br/index.php/journal/indexhttp://www.lajbm.net/index.php/journal/oaimarcela.moraes@unitau.com.br||editor@lajbm.net2178-48332178-4833opendoar:2014-02-08T20:52:46Latin American Journal of Business Management - Universidade de Taubaté (UNITAU)false
