Capitalism is in Question and so is management education. On one hand, the challenge for management education is achieving re-legitimization, particularly in the wake of corporate scandals and recent economic crises. On the other hand, management educators are challenged to fundamentally rethink their basic purpose in delivering management education. In a context of a crisis, most management education programs are still teaching pretty much on a business as usual basis, 20th century (even 19th century) model, as the numerous critiques highlight. Yet over the past few years, numerous initiatives, some of them based in the Academy of Management itself, have emerged to counter that fact. The aim of the Professional Development Workshop is to highlight some of the pertinent critiques of management education and focus on what can be done to improve management education going forward. Within the framework of the 50+20 initiative, we will allow for a collaborative space to discuss options for concerned educators and administrators on how to embark and continue on the journey to making business education part of the solution rather than the problem. We will focus on three main topics: 1) educating and developing globally responsible leaders; 2) enabling business organizations to serve the common good; and 3) engaging in the transformation of business and society. This workshop features the 50+20 initiative and associated principals. Search Terms: | Management Education , Paradigms , Responsible Leadership |
