AI in academia is a topic that management educators cannot afford to ignore as it impacts on how we as educators teach and how students learn (Barros et al., 2024; Larson, Mose, Caza, Muehlfeld, and Colombo, 2024). GenAI arrival in management education should be causing us all to reconsider what we do in the classroom and how we assess our students. Its fluency in creating content that reads well challenges many of our teaching and assessment structures, forcing us to investigate what we do, and what we should do. This PDW will provide examples of how innovators and early adopters have investigated and experimented with AI usage, sharing their insights and challenges as well as the opportunities. These early-stage experiments with generative AI and other AIs explore responsible management education and provide in-depth sharing and next steps for educators who are interested in adopting these technologies or wish to explore and learn from each other. Commencing with a useful overview of the current state of play in AI in management education the PDW then provides opportunities to engage with 6 early interventions in a bootcamp format. Delegates will gain a range of insights as they move from table to table for 15-minute slots. These interventions focus on personalized learning, bot support and feedback provision, prompt engineering and administrative support examples. Each contribution provides examples of a transformation pedagogic process in the teaching learning relationship, addressing what was done, how they used it and how others can adopt this themselves.

The case method has become more relevant than ever in today’s educational landscape. It provides a dynamic, participant-centered approach to learning that encourages active engagement, critical thinking, and problem-solving. By presenting real-world scenarios, it helps students bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, making it especially valuable in tackling complex issues such as sustainability. As business schools worldwide increasingly prioritise the integration of sustainability into their curricula, the case method is as an essential tool for developing the skills needed to navigate today’s rapidly changing global landscape.

The challenges that face our world today have become increasingly complex and dynamic leading to a stronger need for the development of holistic skill sets. According to the MPG (2024), global talent shortages have reached a 16-year high, as 75% of employers can’t find the talent they need with the right blend of technical and soft skills. The current education system is not keeping up with the needs of students nor is it providing them with the skills required to join the workforce. Furthermore, Capranos, D. & Magda, A. J. (2023) found that 55% of human resources professionals and hiring managers said their organizations had a skills gap in 2021. By 2023, that number has risen to 69%. The Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) initiative of the UN Global Compact recognizes the need for business schools to provide educational experiences and classroom content which matches the creativity and urgency needed to train the leaders and managers of tomorrow. The PRME Pedagogy Programme encourages the development of innovative and playful interventions to transform pedagogy and teachings of business schools. In this PDW, participants will have the opportunity to engage with the PRME Pedagogy programme and incorporate values and skills of creativity in their pedagogy and teachings while understanding it through the lens of positive student impact. Participants will also be able to engage in our community of practice, sharing best practices, targeted towards furthering responsible management education through innovative pedagogies.

Each year the issues of our planet become more pressing. There has become a need for a change in higher education based on the rapid and dynamic changes of the world. Accreditation institutions are starting to notice this change leading to a shift of focus in their standards. The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), the Association of MBAs (AMBA), and the European Foundation for Management Development’s (EFMD) are the three leading international accreditation bodies for many business and management schools. Since the global pandemic in 2020 the need for a stronger and more positive societal impact has been evident in our world, and is now being reflected in accreditation standards. Each of these institutions highlight the importance of societal impact or social responsibility, and the holistic skills needed to achieve them as a requirement for accreditation. The Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) is an initiative of the UN Global Compact. PRME’s mission is to transform management education and develop the responsible decision-makers of tomorrow to advance sustainable development. In this PDW, PRME will share a unique lens on how to achieve societal impact through the usage of the SDGs as a framework in reporting while also emphasizing the importance of holistic skillset development in students. Furthermore, participants will be engaging and discussing how PRME resources can be used as a tool to aid business schools with reporting as well as acquiring and maintaining accreditation.

There has been a movement to address a notable skills gap that developed over the past decade (MPG, 2024; Capranos & Magda, 2023). Management school students are under-prepared with the breadth of skills that are urgently needed to address the grand challenges of the 21st century. Management education is in dire need to broaden its focus on content to include skills development and invest in how content is being learned and skills are being effectively developed. The panelists plan to discuss four major themes: opportunities in uncertainty, lifelong learning, leaping through the skills gap, and impact of technological support in shifting management education. There has been an increasing amount of uncertainty regarding many aspects of the future of society, including the role of higher education. While this might seem intimidating at first, it opens opportunities for innovation. PRME is preparing the next generation of managers to develop innovative mindsets and to overcome the ubiquitous obstacles from an everchanging and dynamic industry. We will share play experiences that aid in embracing uncertainty while sharing literature on well-being related to coping with different degrees of uncertainty.

This symposium explores how higher education institutions (HEIs) are equipping future business leaders with the competencies necessary to navigate complex global challenges such as climate change, inequality, and shifting stakeholder expectations. Drawing on a diverse panel of educators, scholars, and practitioners, the session interrogates how ethics, responsibility, and sustainability (ERS) are being embedded into management education through curriculum innovation, pedagogical experimentation, and institutional reform. With contributions spanning theory and practice, the symposium engages with frameworks like the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and emerging models such as whole-person learning and virtue-based education. Attendees will benefit from concrete examples, tools, and reflections on curricular integration, student engagement, assessment strategies, and the use of digital platforms. The session also surfaces tensions and trade-offs, inviting critical dialogue around political resistance, institutional inertia, and questions of student buy-in. Moderated to encourage interactivity, the session includes structured discussion time and practical takeaways for educators across disciplines. This timely and relevant symposium offers a rich space for participants to exchange ideas and co-develop strategies that advance responsible management education in business schools and beyond.
