Decoupling Responsible Management Education

Abstract: Abstract:Business schools increasingly aim to embed corporate responsibility, sustainability, and ethics into their curricular and extracurricular activities. This paper examines under what conditions business schools may decouple the structural effects of t heir engagement in responsible management education from organizational practices.

“…Further, it has not always been straightforward to implement changes to management education, even among PRME signatories. Rasche and Gilbert (2015) argue that where the adoption of PRME is driven by reputational demands and accreditation criteria, a decoupling of formal policies from day-to-day practices can occur, with one factor being the resistance of staff to the top-down imposition of changes to values, curricula and research focus. As they point out, Business Schools, "depend to a large extent on a change model in which actors themselves have to see the need for change and to act in reflexive ways" (Rasche & Gilbert, 2015:245).…”

“…A expectativa coletiva é de que, instituições de educação em gestão e negócios, conduzam ações em questões de responsabilidade e sustentabilidade, clareando os pontos onde os líderes empresariais têm falhado (Godemann et al, 2014). No entanto, muitas escolas encontram resistências na implementação de ações de mudanças (Godemann et al, 2014;Rasche & Gilbert, 2015), pois inicialmente os líderes locais podem encontrar barreiras estratégicas, estruturais e culturais, que dificultam a implementação dos valores e das práticas do PRME na organização participante (Solitander et al, 2012). Para as IES serem bem sucedidas no alcance dos objetivos do PRME, são necessárias habilidades de diálogo com os stakeholders locais, nacionais e internacionais, ouvindo suas expectativas, sem negligenciar o contexto social, econômico e político de cada região (Sobczak & Mukhi, 2016).…”

“…A adesão da escola muitas vezes se inicia como um esforço de legitimação na agenda do desenvolvimento sustentável, pela instituição de ensino perante sociedade, ensejando posteriormente uma transformação efetiva das práticas educacionais (Moratis, 2016;A. Rasche & Gilbert, 2015;Snelson-Powell, Grosvold, & Millington, 2016).…”
