The main antecedents are resources and capabilities, institutional and stakeholders' pressures, firm size, and role of managers. The main outcomes are competitive advantage, firm performance particularly financial performance, economic performance, and environmental performance, and resources and capabilities. Furthermore, this paper offers guidance for further research on the subject.Practical implicationsThis research may assist professionals by understanding the factors that foster the implementation of environmental management practices and their benefits. In addition, the findings are useful for policymakers in taking effective institutional measures in order to offer a conducive context for environmental sustainability.Originality/valueThis research illustrates the state of the art of the main antecedents and outcomes of environmental management in the literature based on the RBV and then determines research gaps in order to offer new and interesting research perspectives.
