Can Management Education Change the Culture of Business?

It was the work of organizations like the UN, AACSB International, EFMD, the Aspen Institute’s Business and Society Program, EABIS, GMAC, GRLI, and Net Impact that led to the recognition by the United Nations of the need for a focus on the leadership being taught in higher education institutions—and in particular in management education.
