What happens when business schools are less progressive than the companies hiring their graduates? The Global Responsible Leadership Initiative (GRLI) aims to close that gap and encourage change in business schools.
Dawna Jones talks to GRLI Executive Director, John North, about his vision to catalyse responsible leadership and practice in organisations and societies worldwide - no small task - and how GRLI has set out to achieve this. They also discuss what kinds of initiatives set the fifty member business schools apart from conventional thinking about business education.
In this podcast you’ll learn:
- Why 50-20 exists and what it aims to achieve.
- How students are helping faculty be more relevant to today’s reality.
- Who is setting up a ‘pop up’ university and which universities are using constraints to be different.
- The voice the GRLI is giving to business schools on important forums like COP21.
- About the value of trans-disciplinary and integrative thinking as core to leading change in business schools.
