We enthusiastically invite you to attend the professional development workshop:
"Where West Hears East: Context-Sensitive, System-Wide Mindset for Responsible Management and Business Ethics Education."
Session: 232 http://program.aomonline.org/2011/submission.asp?mode=ShowSession&SessionID=880
Date & Time: Saturday, August 13, 2011 9:00 am – 12:00 pm
Location: San Antonio Convention Center Room 007C
In this interactive two-part workshop, we will engage in discussion and debate on how best to encourage management educators and institutions to adopt a context-sensitive, system-wide mindset for responsible and sustainable Management and Business Ethics Education. Part one of the workshop focuses on the topic of business ethics education and particularly what it means to consider context in business ethics education with a culturally diverse group of students. In part two of our workshop, we move beyond course content to engage a broader system-wide view of responsible and sustainable management education. Here we are not focused on context as an ontological starting point, but rather on context as an actively created, system-wide environment conducive to developing a model of responsible management education. To explore this topic, we address the challenges and opportunities for engaging PRME as a basis for university-wide change towards responsible and sustainable management education. Taken together the two parts of this workshop bring together experts, curious colleagues, and practitioners to reflect, debate, and create action opportunities for building a more contextualized and embedded approach to responsible and sustainable management and ethics education.
Why should you attend?
- Learn from a diverse group of educators who are pushing the boundaries on both ethics education and PRME
- Participate in round-table discussions with program organizers to explore how to engage these ideas in your own classrooms and universities
Please join me and our esteemed organizers and panelists, C. Karam, American University of Beirut, Lebanon, D. Jamali, American University of Beirut, B. Agle, Brigham Young University, A. Buono, Bentley University, J. Forray, Western New England University, J. Leigh Nazareth College, R. Nielsen, Boston College, S. Young, La Trobe University, Australia, and Z.
