It provides an understanding of human nature and its uniqueness and complexity, which helps managers in today's business world to better manage and to respect self, others, and the environment. It also provides the foundation for learning ethical behavior, leadership, responsibility, sustainable management, and corporate social responsibility. Without this angle, an MBA might tend to focus primarily on financial success in different dimensions--operational quality, financial strategy, workforce motivation, cost-cutting strategies, etc. and people may forget to take cognizance of the implications of their own nature and that of the people through whom they have to work. Future leaders and shapers of sustainable organizations and societies cannot afford to have such a knowledge gap. Having these discussions helps students understand that the reason to be ethical goes beyond self-interest and profit motives to the very foundations of human nature. 410 0$a2013 digital library. 410 0$aPrinciples for responsible management education collection. 606 $aSocial responsibility of business 606 $aManagement 610 $aabstraction and reflection 610 $aanthropology 610 $abehavioral ethics 610 $abusiness 610 $abusiness and society 610 $acareer success 610 $acase study 610 $acharacter building 610 $acommitment 610 $acommunication 610 $acorporate social responsibility 610 $adevelopment 610 $adiversity 610 $aemotion 610 $aethics 610 $aexperiential learning 610 $afreedom 610 $afulfillment 610 $ahuman nature 610 $ahuman resource management 610 $aintellect 610 $aleadership 610 $alocus of control 610 $amanagement 610 $amanaging people 610 $aorganizational behavior 610 $aPRME 610 $arespect 610 $aresponsibility 610 $asustainability 610 $avalues 610 $avirtue 610 $awill 610 $awork 610 $aworkplace situations 615 0$aSocial responsibility of business. 615 0$aManagement. 676 $a658.408 700 $aOgunyemi$b Kemi$0927251 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809469303321 996 $aResponsible management$94112249 997 $aUNINA
