Synopsis

In light of seismic global events including the Covid-19 pandemic; the Black Lives Matter movement; the war in Ukraine; and extreme weather incidents propelled by climate change, there has never been a more important time to learn about management in ways that not only benefit business, but also help confront the world’s challenges, support people and planet, and contribute to peace and prosperity for all.

Fully revised and once again endorsed by the UN’s Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) initiative, this popular textbook equips you with the skills to become a responsibly, ethically and sustainably minded business professional.

Featuring two brand-new chapters on Behaving and Digitalizing, over 50 new and updated case studies, pioneer interviews and practitioner profiles, as well as a wide range of exercises and worksheets, the book also integrates the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to help promote sustainable development as essential to business and management today.

This essential textbook can be used for a wide range of courses from introductory business/management to responsible/sustainable management, business ethics, business and society, and corporate social responsibility (CSR).

Oliver Laasch is a Chaired Professor of Responsible Management at ESCP Business School, and an Adjunct Professor of Social Entrepreneurship at the University of Manchester.
