Social Sector and Business Strategies for Complex Adaptive Change: Navigating the Changing Currents for Business Education

Adaptive Challenges; Business Schools; Complexity Theory; Wicked Problems

Increasingly, the spotlight for global development that will improve the lives of the poor is shifting to the business sector and strategies to influence private sector practices. This requires a different set of skills than those traditionally taught in business schools. We explored how successful pedagogical experiments from business schools could be transferred across boundaries to drive public and private sector changes that accelerate social change. Overall, the session would take 60 minutes. In the session, we will use the World Café Approach. There will be 10 minutes presentation and 50 minutes for the world café.
