Management Education for Corporate Social Performance

Editors

In the wake of ongoing corporate scandals, society expects that, on one hand, business educators will contribute to solving  and fighting against some of the most pressing problems in the world, such as poverty, environmental degradation, defending human rights, corruption, and pandemic diseases by preparing a cohort of students who will raise the social and ethical standards of the business world (Kurpis et al., 2008). On the other hand, society expects management educators to continuously improve management education's development of social responsibility in its learners.
