A list of the institution level sustainability learning outcomes:
Since 1958, IESE's mission has been to develop leaders who strive to have a deep, positive and lasting impact on people, companies and society through professional excellence, integrity and spirit of service. With this in mind, business ethics, including sustainability, are a core value for the institution and all programs and activities align with the Sustainable Development Goals.
Our participants are taught ethical practices as a central focus at IESE, reflecting a human-centered approach to business. Ethical practices consider decisions and actions that impact the environment, society and the economy, meaning in sustainability. At IESE, we expect our students to be able to define sustainability and identify major sustainability challenges and to reflect on the impact that their business decisions have on sustainability on a personal and professional level. These decisions affect many aspects of sustainability: the environment, the economy and society including peers, employees, suppliers, clients and other stakeholders.
By taking the mandatory course Business Ethics, all students in our degree programs achieve the following IESE institutional learning outcomes:
- Understanding the mutual relationship between business and ethics in managerial decision-making
- Mastering the tools and procedures to prevent, identify and resolve corporate crises with a holistic stakeholder approach
- Analyzing the impact that organizational policies have on the behaviors of individuals and corporate culture
- Comprehending the relationship between businesses and their stakeholders to establish lasting and constructive dialogues
- Identifying the opportunities associated with responsible management and integrating them into organizational and strategic planning
- Understanding the ethical and social challenges of technological disruption and the related opportunities for innovation in business
