Description: This course examines the reasons that companies might consider social impact and corporate social responsibility as part of their strategy. We study different methods that companies use to measure social impact. We also look at one aspect of the social impact to strategy link: via “ethical consumerism.” Students will develop a social impact report as part of their learning. This seminar also incorporates intercultural and interpersonal communication skills and explores value-based communication behaviors that leaders harness in global business.
