Special Report: The Responsible Business Education Awards
As pressure mounts on companies to look beyond profit, business schools are responding with new courses and teaching. These awards, now in their second year, acknowledge those institutions, researchers and alumni whose efforts are to helping to recast business.
We chose the FT because it’s a reliable international news source that offers the global perspective our students need. I want my students to understand the need to stay informed on current events, and the best way they can do this is by reading the FT.
