SU. How should an organization approach the many challenges and considerations involved in making sustainable business decisions that take into account all stakeholders? This course will orient students to the ethical imperatives of leadership in contemporary organizations. Responsible leadership theory will provide a framework for connecting virtuous character with responsiveness to the organization’s stakeholders, and to organizational sustainability. Alternative models of corporate social responsibility, including models informed by Christian theological and social traditions, will be presented and critiqued. Contextual agendas for responsible leadership will be developed through reflective writing exercises. Prerequisite: admission into the graduate business program.
