Educating for Responsible Management

Educating for Responsible Management delves into the mission of PRME itself, not simply explaining why RME is necessary or its content, but instead how to transform management education, research and thought leadership globally by providing the Principles for Responsible Management Education framework, developing learning communities and promoting awareness about the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals. In an effort to transform management education, the understanding of transformative approaches is imperative. Demonstrated through original and collaborative content from a vast array of practitioners and thought leaders around the world, this book provides innovative approaches to RME that are easily relatable. It is a must read for all individuals who are interested in shaping the business of tomorrow. -- Jonas Haertle, Head, PRME Secretariat, UN Global Compact
