  • Clarifying the Meaning of Sustainable Business
    OAEXXX10.1177/1086026615575176Organization & EnvironmentDyllick and Muff 575176research-article2015 Article Organization & Environment 1 –19 Clarifying the Meaning of © 2015 SAGE Publications Reprints and permissions: Sustainable Business: Introducing a sagepub.com/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/1086026615575176 Typology From Business-as-Usual oae.sagepub.com to True Business Sustainability Thomas Dyllick1 and Katrin Muff2 Abstract While sustainability management is becoming more widespread among major companies, the impact of their activities does not reflect in studies monitoring the state of the planet. What results from this is a “big disconnect.” With this article, we address two main questions: “How can business make an effective contribution to addressing the sustainability challenges we are facing?” and “When is business truly sustainable?” In a time when more and more corporations claim to manage sustainably, we need to distinguish between those companies that contribute effectively to sustainability and those that do not. We provide an answer by clarifying the meaning of business sustainability. We review established approaches and develop a typology of business sustainability with a focus on effective contributions for sustainable development. This typology ranges from Business Sustainability 1.0 (Refined Shareholder Value Management) to Business Sustainability 2.0 (Managing for the Triple Bottom Line) and to Business Sustainability 3.0 (True Sustainability). Keywords business sustainability, corporate sustainability, triple bottom line, planetary challenges, corporate social responsibility, responsible leadership, purpose of the firm, sustainable development, sustainable business Introduction While sustainability management is becoming more widespread among major companies, the impact of their activities is not reflected in studies that monitor the state of the planet. The con- sequence is a “big disconnect” between micro-level progress and macro-level deterioration.

  • BSL Students to Participate in Prominent International MBA Competition
    Press Release BSL Students to Participate in Prominent International MBA Competition Lausanne, Switzerland, March 20, 2015 – Beginning Saturday, March 21, BSL MBA students will participate in a case study competition rewarding innovation at the intersection of corporate profitability and positive social and environmental impact. Business School Lausanne is one of 25 leading business schools chosen to engage in the Aspen Institute’s 2015 Business & Society International MBA Case Competition. Students at these institutions will analyze a brand new case study authored by the Yale School of Management and give deep thought to the potentially positive role that a well-managed business can have in society. “Today’s business students are tomorrow’s business leaders,” said Claire Preisser, Associate Director of the Aspen Institute Business & Society Program. “Now in its sixth year, this program provides an important – and exciting! – opportunity for MBAs to broaden their aperture with regards to the opportunity that the private sector has in creating both economic and societal returns. We applaud our partnering schools that are on the forefront of preparing a new generation of socially-conscious business executives.” Participating students will tackle a complex, real-life business analysis being undertaken by a multinational company. Separate competitions at each of the 25 partnering schools will determine first place campus winners, whose work will be reviewed by a panel of academic judges to determine five honorable mentions and five finalist teams. Finalists will be flown to New York City, where they will present to a panel of corporate judges and other social impact thought leaders. All finalist teams will receive prize money, with the first place team receiving $15,000.

  • How the Circle Model Can Purpose
    The current issue and full text archive of this journal is available on Emerald Insight at: www.emeraldinsight.com/0262-1711.htm JMD 36,2 How the Circle Model can purpose-orient entrepreneurial universities and business schools 146 to truly serve society Received 30 June 2016 Katrin Muff Revised 7 November 2016 9 December 2016 Business School Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland Accepted 12 December 2016 Abstract Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to outline a path for entrepreneurial universities to embrace their purpose as custodians of society and to hardwire it institutionally. Design/methodology/approach – The paper is conceptual in its approach, drawing on practical and theoretical insights in the fields of responsible leadership, business sustainability and transformational change. The resulting Circle Model offers a developmental perspective connecting individual and organizational development in service of society. Findings – A key finding lies in expanding the current understanding of an entrepreneurial university beyond its organizational effectiveness to become a true custodian of society in the way it educate, researches and lives this intended purpose. The model offers a next conceptual step for the 50+20 vision (Muff et al., 2013) which had outlined a radical new role for business schools. Research limitations/implications – More research is required to understand how not only the educational and research strategies but also the organizational structure can be transformed to serve a given purpose. Practical implications – Concrete insights and examples of the developmental perspective of the model illustrate the opportunities for educating responsible leaders, for consulting business organizations to serve the common good, and for walking the talk by hardwiring a purpose-driven organization.
