Sustainable and Responsible Management:

A decade of Integrating Knowledge and Creating Societal Impact through Innovation and Entrepreneurship

 

The 10th RMER Conference hosted by Iscte Business School is a forum intended to engage multiple stakeholders in a dialogue around Agenda 2030 and beyond and enhance further collaborations in responsible management education and research, and sustainable business practices to advance the SDGs.

 

This year marks the 10thJubilee anniversary of RMER Conferences.  Across a decade of achievement, RMER Conferences have explored the complexities and global challenges involved in the transition to more sustainable production and consumption patterns. Different agents, including companies, nonprofits, governmental entities, organizations, consumers, and society at large, need to work together to effectively advance the 2030 Agenda and beyond. Through multidimensional and multidisciplinary dialogue and knowledge sharing among management educators in conversation with other stakeholders have advanced responsible management education and learning. As the challenge remains, further dialogue on how economic restructuring and social transformation on the journey to a more sustainable world is still needed.

 

The main goal of the global 10th RMER Conference is to bring together the responsible management education community and its stakeholders to drive societal impact through innovative and entrepreneurial ways that are grounded in the six PRME principles of purpose, values, method, research, dialogue and partnerships.

 

This continues the RMER tradition of holding inspirational, multidisciplinary and multicultural events that contribute to mutual sharing and learning among management educators and other stakeholders – all in service of creating positive societal impact through innovation and entrepreneurship.

 

Questions of special interest to be addressed include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • What have we accomplished in the last decade of responsible management education? Where should we be heading?
  • What are the implications of developing entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial capabilities for sustainable businesses, economic restructuring and societal transformation?
  • How can management education and learning in social, economic and environmental responsibility transform and innovate organizations?
  • How can we integrate knowledge and create impact through innovation and entrepreneurship?
  • What strategies can be used for advancing responsible management education, research and learning?
  • How can innovation and responsible entrepreneurship, including social entrepreneurship, be encouraged?
  • How to help management educators and students cross disciplinary boundaries and engage with non-managerial disciplines to effectively deal with complex issues and challenges?
  • How to foster dialogue and partnership with other individuals, groups, organizations and other stakeholders towards creating positive societal impact?
  • How do business schools need to adapt educational approaches to tackle sustainability related business challenges?

 

We cordially invite you to participate in the debate about how diverse stakeholders can successfully engage, collaborate and partner towards achieving a more responsible management education for a better world.

Discover the PRME 'Impactful Five' (i5) Program—an ambitious project fostering responsible leaders through collaborative, meaningful, and playful learning strategies. Developed by the LEGO Foundation, the i5 Program distils 5 essential qualities for creating profound learning experiences: joy, social interaction, engagement, meaningful experiences, and iteration. Through a partnership with Project Zero at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and Sulitest, PRME translated the Lego Foundation’s research into pedagogical practices for the business school setting. These findings are shared in the PRME i5 Playbook, which showcases concrete methods for applying i5 pedagogies in the classroom.

In this workshop, you will take a deep dive into the PRME i5 Playbook with members of i5 Team Europe – experts who pioneered the i5 Playbook's development. The workshop will share the extensive pedagogical research behind the program, inspiring examples of how i5 is implemented globally and tap into the diverse experiences of participants.

Participation in this workshop grants access to forthcoming mentoring and development opportunities within the i5 Literacy Certification Scheme —an advanced series culminating in a certification, validating your expertise in employing i5 methodologies.

Students' engagement for sustainability at Higher Education institutions: The PRME UN Global Ambassadors Program ****

Anna-Theresia Krein



**  Cross-Regional Chapter/ Cross-Working Group Session 

Margaret Goralski, Liz Collier, Milenko Gudic and Al Rosenbloom

Innovation and entrepreneurship are taught universally across all business schools and are often seen as two central mindsets for achieving the sustainable development goals (SDGs).  It’s now certain that tackling the SDGs requires multidisciplinary and multidimensional knowledge sharing and dialogue across a whole range of societal and educational actors.  This cross PRME regional chapter/cross PRME working group track attempts to mirror the multidimensional and multidisciplinary discussions needed to develop SDG-ready business students. By bringing together chapters, perhaps thought of as vertical organized entities, and working groups, perhaps thought of as horizontal entities because their topic focus can cut across regions, this track will foster discussion at the intersection of these groups.   Designed to be interactive and engaging, the track’s goal is to develop collaborations that produce results.  Specific outcomes will be driven by the number of regional chapter and working group chairs/representatives present.  Historically, RMER has held sessions such as this.  Participant response has been enthusiastic.


*** Wicked Festival

Tay Keong Tan, Paul Hanstedt, Rachel Sharrett, and Maja Anderson

‘Wicked problems’ are persistent challenges that defy resolution, generally seen as complex and open-ended (Rittel & Webber, 1973). Unlike “tame” problems with ready-made or tested solutions, wicked problems lack clarity in their definition and their solutions are often strongly contested, risky, and subject to many real-world constraints (such as extreme poverty, pandemics, refugees, and terrorism). Most of the world’s crises highlighted in the Sustainable Development Goals are wicked problems.

In the first of the two parallel sessions, Radford University graduate and undergraduate students will present the outcomes of their research on four unsolved wicked problems and their solutions to them. They will demonstrate how students in higher education, with guidance and mentoring from faculty members, can tackle complex, multi-dimensional public problems, develop workable solutions, and present and defend their work at academic meetings, such as this conference (Bentley & Toth, 2020)

The second parallel session will discuss the conceptual underpinnings and pedagogical objectives of incorporating the teaching of solving wicked problems in universities and colleges (Hanstedt, 2018), and the implications for management education and the advancements of the SDGs. In this session, two professors and two graduate students will discuss the strategies for empowering students to solve real-world, complex problems and lessons learned from the practice at Radford University and around the world.


**** Students' engagement for sustainability at Higher Education institutions: The PRME UN Global Ambassadors Program

Anna-Theresia Krein

Student engagement is and remains one of the paramount purposes of advancing higher education institutions. During this sessions six students will present the PRME UN Global Ambassadors Program as well as their individual projects/work which originates in the program. The six students selected for this session have been carefully chosen and selected from 6 different DACH-region higher education institutions: Brunswick European Law School (BELS), CBS Business School, HS Pforzheim, MCI Internationale Hochschule, FH Wien and ZHAW School of Management and Law. The students have received financial stipends in order to aid their travel to the conference. The concluding panel discussion of this session is intended to provide an opportunity for asking questions about the PRME UN Global Ambassadors Program as well as the student’s work and their respective engagement.

Agenda:
