17142: Exploring the Nordic Approach to Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability: Teaching Meets Practice

This PDW offers a platform for members of the Academy to learn about the distinct Nordic approach to corporate responsibility and sustainability while at AOM in Copenhagen. The workshop aims to develop participants’ knowledge about how Nordic companies approach responsibility and sustainability and it discusses ways for them to use this knowledge in developing their teaching practices (e.g., integration into teaching materials). The workshop is designed in an interactive format and gives participants the unique opportunity to discuss the Nordic approach with leading practitioners of local companies (e.g., Novo Nordisk) and organizations (e.g., the UN Global Compact Network Denmark). At the heart of the workshop are (1) a panel discussion that brings together practitioner and academic voices to debate which insights of the distinct Nordic approach to corporate responsibility and sustainability should be integrated into teaching; and (2) small breakout group discussions during which participants have the chance to zoom into aspects that they find most interesting for their own teaching and research.
