Complex global environmental and social issues require attention from leaders across sectors with wide-ranging competencies. AACSB is calling for systemic change through the expertise and action of global business leaders and business educators.

AACSB’s Innovation Committee engaged in an accelerator workshop in April 2022 focused on advancing AACSB’s ongoing work in societal impact. The committee applied Three Horizons thinking to examine business schools’ role in driving positive change and preparing future societal impact leaders.

Organizations are increasingly called on to create and prioritize positive societal impact across their operations, products, and services. Leaders of this movement will need an expanded set of competencies to effectively meet new demands.

See key takeaways from AACSB and PRME's first webinar in a series that brings together leaders committed to creating positive societal impact and action.
