Abstract

The objective of this article is to elucidate both the interconnection between the natural and organisational environments and the impact of Darwin’s theory on contemporary business practices.It aims to examine the potential for organisations to derive insights from the natural environment and to identify how such insights might be applied in a manner that enhances their survival and growth. In order to achieve the article’s purpose, a literature review was conducted including relevant examples and an analysis of the interaction between physical and organisational environments. The sources were subjected to critical and analytical analysis to address the general problem. One such example is the adaptation of organisations to the digital transformation environment. The bibliometric survey indicates a growing interest in this topic among researchers in recent years. Informing and raising awareness among business professionals about the risks of human and business activity to the natural environment is fundamental. Strategic environmental policies can shape new markets, such as renewable energy and organic products. Future research will examine the prospects of developing relevant programs through a multidisciplinary approach.
