Educating responsible managers for a better world: The social responsibility of business schools

Abstract

This paper draws on a literature review and on an exploratory survey on the strategies of corporate social responsibility (CSR) implemented in two French business schools. Both the analysis of the literature and our first exploratory survey tend to show that a sustainability strategy is not limited to the introduction of courses and diplomas in the programs, but has implications on pedagogical approaches, on the development of competences and the acculturation to responsible management, as well as on the strategic and operational management of the school.
