I have an upcoming paper in the Journal of Management Education special
edition on sustainability - "developing leaders to deal with
sustainability issues". Not sure when it will be published - perhaps
early 2009.

Implementing the Principles for Responsible Management Education
(PRME) – The Questions We Have Not Asked (Yet)
Details: Saturday August 9, 2008, 1:00pm – 3:30pm, Anaheim Convention
Center, Room 304C Prior registration is not required!
Presenters & Facilitators: Manuel Escudero (UN Global Compact),
Matthew Gitsham (Ashridge), Joshua Margolis (Harvard Business
School), Daina Mazutis (Ivey School of Business), Alan Murray
(University of Sheffield), Hans van Oosterhout (RSM, Erasmus
University), Greg Unruh (Thunderbird), Carolyn Woo (Notre Dame)
Organizers: Andreas Rasche (Helmut-Schmidt-University Hamburg),

Supported by the United Nations Global Compact, the Principles for
Responsible Management Education (PRME) provide a framework for
academic institutions to advance corporate responsibility through the
incorporation of universal values into curricula and research. The
PRME have been developed by an international task force consisting of
60 deans, university presidents and official representatives of
leading business schools. Officially launched at the 2007 Global
Compact Leaders Summit in Geneva, the PRME are now in the
implementation phase.
This All-Academy PDW will bring together a variety of people from
different institutions who have adopted or are considering adopting
the PRME, and from a range of disciplinary backgrounds. The
objectives of the workshop are twofold. First, the aim is to identify
and share the questions that have emerged in the early phases of
adopting and beginning to implement the PRME, as well as those
answers concerning PRME implementation we already have. Early
adopters will be invited to present their experiences and best
practices; sharing these experience with others who have just adopted
or are considering adopting PRME, facilitating a sharing of
experiences and best practices regarding responsible management
education. In addition, the PDW will provide a forum for jointly
developing innovative solutions to implementing the PRME. Second,
considering that every answer is only as good as the questions we
ask, the PDW also wants participants to discuss what questions are
meaningful when implementing the PRME and which of these questions
have not been asked yet.
As the PRME concern teaching and research in all management-related
disciplines and are not limited to the area of business ethics or
corporate (social) responsibility, this PDW aims to bring together
scholars from different disciplinary backgrounds and nationalities to
explore the cross-disciplinary and international nature of
responsible management education. This PDW is necessary and timely
since a number of academic institutions have already signed up or are
considering signing up to the PRME and thus face the crucial question
of implementation.
