Description

CR Integration

With the increase in the activities on BiS/CR the Executive Board decided early 2007 to integrate BiS and CR issues in our mission (will be finalised in the fall of 2007).
BiS and CR issues were already longer part of the TiasNimbas overall strategy. Examples are:
* the focus of our 20th anniversary (granting an honorary doctorate to prof. C.K. Prahalad)
* the integration of Globus, a competence centre on corporate global responsibility and governance
* initiate the Bottom of the Pyramid Learning Lab for Benelux
* focus on CR in all of our programmes
* have projects within our MBA programmes focussing on CR issues
* development of a post-MBA track on corporate global responsibility
