Call for Chapter proposals
Management Education for Integrity
Charles Wankel, St. John’s University, New York, and Agata Stachowicz-Stanusch, Silesian University of Technology, Gliwice, Editors
In the wake of ongoing corporate scandals, society expects that, on one hand, business educators will contribute to solving business ethical problems by preparing a cohort of students who will raise the ethical standards of the business world (Kurpis et al., 2008). On the other hand, society expects management educators to continuously improve management education’s development of integrity in its learners.
We invite proposals for chapters on how management educators can better equip students to robustly confront moral and ethical dilemmas with requisite knowledge, sensitivity, and conviction.
Proposals may address any approach to better align teaching with the need to foster the development of managers with integrity. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- the role of Positive Organization Scholarship in management education for integrity;
- the development, implementation, and use of codes of ethics and conduct;
- integrity as a core value in organizations;
- the development of business school programs, policies, procedures, and agendas as paradigms of ethical practice;
- the development of moral character in business students;
- development of curricula to support ethical orientations in learners;
- sensitizing learners to the gamut of ethical and unethical organizational cultures so they understand possibilities;
- honor codes;
- spirituality in management education;
- using case studies and examples of piratical approaches to conducting business as forums for learning how to act when one finds himself/herself in a job in an unscrupulous organization;
- the factors and dimensions of ethical competency in managers;
- the implications of national cultural differences in management education for integrity;
- best practices in management education for integrity;
- social media as tools for fostering integrity in management students;
- e-learning in support of business ethics;
- the use of immersive 3D virtual world contexts for developing integrity and business students.
