For the second time in a row, the United Nations (UN) have entrusted MEDIA CONSULTA (MC) with part of the conception and implementation of the “Global Forum for Responsible Management Education”. On June 23rd, deans and directors of highly reputed business schools and prestigious universities will meet well-known international managers of worldwide operating companies in New York. On site they will debate how responsible behavior can be conveyed to young managers during their studies.

In addition, previous progress and the future of responsible management behavior will be on the agenda. The CEOs will exchange expectations and interests about how to establish well-rounded training.
