The Role of Business Education in Building Business Leadership for 21st Century Responsiveness and Environmental Stewardship: Should Business Education Be Re-Developed?

st century business graduates need to be well equipped with skillsets that enable them to apply their commercial knowledge in organisations where profit maximisation is not the sole purpose. However, business students continue to be taught classic commercial business principles that predominately value profit and performance, resulting in a significant skill shortage for businesses embracing ethical responsibility, social justice and environment issues. The aim of this project is to blueprint a cutting-edge commerce degree that fills this skill shortage by developing an Integrated Business Education Model with extensive literature review and consultation with a wide range of stakeholders. Using the Integrated Business Education Model a traditional commerce degree curriculum will be re-designed and piloted in a business school. Findings and implementation materials will be disseminated to all Australian business schools. Eventually, graduates of this contemporary commerce degree will be skilled to contribute and grow in any form of hybrid organisation.

Capitalism and business education: possibilities for resistance and building alternatives

Capitalism is, perpetually, in crisis. Business schools may not seem a compelling focus of attention or strategy. Discussions in critical management studies about the role of business education in perpetuating/transforming capitalism (i.e. Grey, 2004) suggest “critical management education” (CME) can create awareness of the effects of managerial capitalism and of the need for alternatives. This paper draws on experience in a public business school in the United States as the basis for analysis of the failures of business education and for proposals for changes in teaching and institutional activity. It is proposed here that although business schools and business academics have been complicit in the worst of capitalism’s transgressions (current and past) they have the potential, despite formidable obstacles, to serve as centers for fostering more sustainable economic and social organization

The University of Colorado Certificate Program in Bioinnovation and Entrepreneurship: An interdisciplinary, cross-campus model

In keeping with an emerging literature on the role of business education in the development of entrepreneurially-intentioned biotechnologists, this paper describes the actions and experiences of an entrepreneurship program that began in the late 1990’s. Along the way it illustrates how a business-centric approach can shift the budding entrepreneur’s perspective from a product to a market orientation when considering an innovation’s commercialization. While the developmental timeline and specific stages of the adoption process for biotechnology-based products vary from traditional consumer or industrial products, there many similarities, foremost is the notion that to be successful the market must perceive significant advantage to the new offering. Lastly, this paper provides thoughts on potentially profitable areas for program expansion and new foci, especially regarding the globalization of biotechnology innovation and international opportunities.

The Impact of Business Education on Students’ Moral Competency

Grooming business students for ethical professional roles has been a growing concern for both the corporate world and the business schools. Widely publicized corporate scandals have pushed public trust in business to an all-time low and have raised the question about the role and effectiveness of university education in developing moral competencies among students—future business leaders. The study pursues twin objectives—( a) checking the reliability and validity of MCI developed in the Polish context; and ( b) comparison of moral competencies of students with and without inputs on ethical education on MCI scores. The article presents results of an exploratory study on the role of business education on moral competencies (MCI scores) of students in Poland. The results bear important implications for increasing understanding of business education and students’ moral competencies.

The Role Of Business Education At The K-12 Level: Faculty Perceptions On Establishing A Business Education Department In The College Of Basic Education At The Public Authority For Applied Education And Training

In recent years, business education has grown rapidly at the university level, though there have been some critics who believe that this approach does not instill the outcomes that business schools claim. One possible approach suggested is the expansion of business education to general education at the K-12 level in order to better instill business skills among the general student population. The validity of this theory and the proposal to add a business education component to the College of Basic Education at The Public Authority for Applied Education and Training in The State of Kuwait was tested using the perspectives gathered through interviews of six faculty members from the College of Basic Education and the College of Business Studies. The interviews revealed varying opinions between the two faculties on the usefulness of business education generally, the applicability of business skills, and the importance of teaching business ethics. Though the hypothesis is ultimately not fully supported, the perspectives given provide a good start for considering expanding business education to the K-12 level.

The Ethics Narrative and the Role of the Business School in Moral Development

Media stories of ethical lapses in business are relentless. The general public vacillates between revulsion, impatience, cynicism, and apathy. The role of the Business School in Moral Development is debated by scholars, accrediting agencies, and Schools of Businesses. It is a question to which there is no easy answer and one with which Business Schools continue to grapple. This article places the concept of “moral imagination,” theories of moral development, and ethics in a behavioral context. It then discusses a staple of business education, the case study, as a form of ethics narrative that provides ethical modeling within that context. Finally, in discussing the narrative role of the classroom professor in ethical modeling, it provides a framework for further discussion of the role of business education in moral development.

Recovering Religion's Prophetic Voice for Business Ethics

This article surveys western business ethics' recent history to show how this ethic has neglected recently its religious traditions and become construed more narrowly as an applied philosophy and social science. It argues that this narrowness has confused business ethics' role in business education and helped to weaken the distinctiveness of certain institutions of higher education. It then suggests ways that western business ethics might become more integrated, interesting, and autonomous as an academic discipline by incorporating its key religious traditions.
