UN Global Compact har flera systerorganisationer och en av dem är PRME (The Principles for Responsible Management Education) som arbetar med akademin. I Sverige finns det tre skolor som är PRME-champions och en av dem är Handelshögskolan i Stockholm (HHS). PRME ligger där under MISUM och vi ger er nu möjlighet till samarbeta med skolans elever.
Upplägg
Eleverna i årskurs ett letar företag att intervjua för deras projekt som startar i månadsskiftet mars/april 2020. Nedan kan du läsa om vad projektet går ut på.
About the project
Students are required to interview a company/an entrepreneur, and then, based on the interview and other secondary material they can find:
1. identify a strategic decision facing the company/entrepreneur. This can either be a decision they are about to take in the near future, or one they have been faced with recently. This may, for example, be a decision about how to raise capital to expand, or launching a new product, or thinking about entering a new market, or wanting to employ more people, or how to price a product or service, etc.
2. analyze the factors that contribute to the companies/entrepreneurs approach to strategic decisions. Relate this to the theoretical concepts covered in this course, in particular:
– different views on CSR, and the relative importance of profit VS social responsibility: is the organization benefiting society while at the same time pursuing profit, or is there a conflict between the two, that is relevant to this particular decision? Is the organization free to pursue social objectives even if they are in conflict with profit generation?
– organizational differences in formal governance: which actors and stakeholders need to be brought onboard when taking an important strategic decision? Which actors and stakeholders will managers need to answer to?
