Class Notes:
Firms are increasingly being asked to look beyond profit maximization and address environmental and social challenges such as climate change, exclusion, and inequality. This is driven in part by the demands from a wide range of stakeholders, and in part by the recognition that forward-looking firms may be able to devise win-win strategies that respond to these concerns while also increasing profits. Managers need to develop new sets of skills to deal with this increasingly complex business environment. In this 2-credit offering in Spring 2024 (A term), we will take the perspective of managers, entrepreneurs, and investors seeking to combine social and environmental impact with financial profitability. Through a combination of lectures and case studies, we will explore the central question of: how can managers incorporate Environmental, Social, & Governance (ESG) issues into their firms' business core strategies effectively and sustainably?
