In 2007, the United Nations called for more "responsible" management education in the Principles of Responsible Management Education (PRME). Since then, the need to consider sustainability, responsibility, and ethics as guiding principles in management and the education of managers has been increasingly agreed among educators. Consequently, researchers have followed the PRME principle three to "create educational frameworks, materials, processes and environments that enable effective learning experiences for responsible leadership" (PRME: Principle 3). In this PDW, scholars who have developed and extensively applied frameworks for responsible management education (e.g. Giving Voice to Values; the Sustainability Literacy Test) will present their frameworks and then discuss them with the workshop participants and translate them into actionable classroom solutions. Specifically, this PDW will firstly provide participants with an extensive toolbox of the presented action-oriented frameworks; secondly help them to apply these frameworks in their own educational practice; and thirdly provide opportunities to engage with colleagues who are experts in the different tools and thus to build a professional network that may support participants in shaping responsible management education when back home in their classrooms. After short introductions by the presenters, participants can chose to engage in round tables focusing on (1) responsible management in the higher education institution, (2) responsible management in the curriculum, or (3) responsible management in the class-room. Finally, insights from the table discussions will be collected and made available through MED and other channels.
