Agata Stachowicz-Stanusch and Hans Krause Hansen

A Practical Guide to Educating for Responsibility in Management and Business

Ross McDonald

Educating for Responsibility is a new way of engaging young people with the challenge of changing their world for the better.

Mary Gentile

This book is aimed at teaching business students the near term skill set required around what to say, to whom and how to say it when the manager knows what he or she thinks is right when an ethical breech occurs — but doesn’t feel confident about how to act on his or her convictions. This overlooked but consequential skill set is the first step in building the ethical muscle. This is the purpose of the Giving Voice to Values program.
