WATCH THIS NEW 3 MINUTE VIDEO INTRODUCTION TO GVV AND THE ONLINE INTERACTIVE SOCIAL COHORT-BASED MODULES!
 

This series of 6 online GVV modules that we built in partnership with Nomadic are really taking off! In our first push, they have been integrated with both graduate and undergraduate courses from 9 different academic institutions spanning the globe--from the US, to the Philippines, to Australia and Canada. They are being used to enhance the in person experience across a variety of disciplines including traditional ethics courses, management courses, government + society courses and leadership courses.

We have received great feedback from both students and professors. In one of our current engagements, a cohort of 53 students has made over 3,000 comments (an average of 53 per user) within the social exercises and logged more than 1,200 total learning hours in just over a month! These modules introduce the core GVV concepts and methodologies and provide opportunities to practice with these approaches as foundation for subsequent in-class discussion. These modules are short, customizable and creatively designed to incorporate brief cases; clear and compelling presentation of core GVV concepts; engaging animations and powerful video segments; opportunities to practice application of the GVV methodologies; and opportunities to engage in peer exchanges. Contact Mgentile3@babson.edu if you are interested in learning more and/or participating.

The GVV/CHINA Curriculum Collection is well launched with at least TEN faculty already signed on and quite a few others who are interested in learning more. The goal is to create a suite of China -specific GVV cases, much as we did with INDIA last year, and in the process to engage a group of lead users among esteemed Chinese business school faculty. We are very fortunate to have Liang Yu as Project Manager for this initiative.

The GVV/EGYPT Curriculum Collection will be launched in Cairo in early May with a Workshop sponsored by the German University of Cairo and the I.L.O.! The goal is to create a suite of Egypt-specific GVV cases, much as we did with INDIA last year and are doing with CHINA now, and in the process to engage a group of esteemed Egyptian business school faculty and business persons.

GVV Book Series Launched with Business Expert Press! Published books include: Jessica McManus' Engaging Millennials for Ethical Leadership: What Works for Young Professionals and Their Managers; Pippa Grange's Ethical Leadership in Sport: What's Your ENDgame?; David L. Remund's The ART of Responsible Communication: Leading With Values Everyday. Quite a few other books have been signed already; contact Mgentile3@babson.edu if you would like to submit a proposal.
