The need for environmental, social, and economic sustainability in both global and local contexts is stark. Concerns about the viability and sensibility of current management theory and practice in the face of growing worldwide poverty, health crises, natural resource depletion, global warming, terrorism, and governmental and business corruption are mounting.
We invite proposals for chapters on how we, as management educators, can align what we teach at the Executive, Graduate, and/or Undergraduate levels with the need to move toward a globally sustainable world.
Proposals may address any aspect of aligning our teaching with the need for global sustainability, such as creating a college or graduate school concentration in global sustainability, helping executives in company-based programs change their management practices, using real-world projects to develop in learners visions of new roles for business in solving environmental and social problems etc.
Proposals can be any length though 200 words is ideal. Include a brief biography mentioning any related publications and your degrees, as well as your complete contact information ideally including office and cell or home phones. Send these to wankelc@stjohns.edu and stoner@fordham.edu
The deadline for submissions for this volume is <st1:date month="1" day="31" year="2008" w:st="on">January 31, 2008</st1:date>.
