Series: The Principles for Responsible Management Education Series

Beyond researching and teaching responsible management, business schools should aspire to walk the talk. They ought to become role models and responsible organisations themselves. Focussing on the original UK and Ireland institutions who committed to this initiative formally by becoming signatories, this book considers how this role-modelling behaviour has been applied.

Based on a number of personal interviews with PRME initiative leads, this book provides a two-dimensional framework based on structure and motivation as critical levers for progress in responsible management organisational practice. It offers unique recommendations on how to better frame and improve organisational practices in PRME member schools. Specifically, this book: 1. sheds light on how to bring PRME to life beyond teaching and research practices; 2. provides recommendations on how dean and PRME initiative leads in signatory institutions can better understand their current organisational practices and prepare improvements over time; and 3. energises and catalyses research on best organisational practices based on a clear research agenda.

This book is relevant to all stakeholders of modern management education, in particular, business school deans, university presidents, programme directors, PRME leads and non-academic leaders in business schools, such as COOs or managing directors.
