This course consists of two related modules that consider ethics and corporate social responsibility, respectively, from the perspective of organizational leaders. The two modules are designed to prepare students to lead ethical and responsible organizations that are consistent with their values. Each module draws extensively upon social science theory and empirical evidence to inform individual-specific perspectives on ethicality and responsibility. Students will be expected to analyze business news articles and case studies for each module. Through reflective assignments, students will develop their leadership values, styles, and methods. Each module culminates in a group exercise that reinforces the module learning objectives.
