International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, Paper presented at the International Conference on Social and Education Sciences (IConSES) (Denver, CO, Oct 7-10, 2019)
This paper is attempted to contribute in the effort to foster business postgraduate students' development towards becoming responsible business leaders. Specifically, this paper is seeking, in Sudan, to examine the state of responsible management education in business postgraduate programs, examine the perception and attitude towards responsible management and responsible management education among MBA and DBA students, and construct a comprehensive framework appropriate for developing responsible management education program in under-developing countries. The data for this study had been gathered through a structured questionnaire. In total, 106 postgraduate business students answered the survey from the largest four business schools or faculties in Sudan. The students are distributed among management, finance and marketing specializations. It is worth mentioning that none of the schools covered is a signatory to the principles of responsible management education developed by UN Global Compact. The students exhibited positive CSR perception and attitude, with a heightened focus on acting ethically and a diminished focus on financial considerations. One of the key lessons learned from this study is the need for continued evolution and development of CSR and ethics more generally across business schools' curriculums in Sudan. The students are seeking the knowledge, skills, exposure and experience they need through responsible management education to be as effective as possible in the real world. Hence, business schools can foster the capabilities of students to be future generators of sustainable value for business and society at large. To that end, this paper proposed a co-created and shared value framework conceptualized to develop and implement an effective responsible management education program in business postgraduate programs.
