It is well known the leaders of tomorrow need new conceptual frameworks and innovative thinking if they are to address the complex problems facing humanity and avoid the ethical and economic mistakes that led to near global financial collapse. Management education has a critical role to play in developing socially responsible leaders who are willing to embrace their potentially transformative role in the stewardship of business towards the creation of a world that values the interdependence of economic prosperity, social justice and the natural world.
Educating for Responsible Management profiles cutting-edge approaches to pedagogy for the Principles of Responsible Management Education (PRME) that go beyond current discussions of sustainability and corporate social responsibility content, to include a wider lens that highlights the processes of educating the next generation of responsible managers.
The book draws together leading thinkers and practitioners of management educators to share their ideas and experience of how management educators can prepare themselves, their students, the learning environment, and their teaching resources to meet these challenges. It outlines the range of pedagogical approaches and strategies that are available to provide effective learning experiences and details the tools used by responsible management educators around the world.
