A new study has found the majority of business schools think MBA programs should focus more on stakeholders than stockholders, management-issues reports.
The international study by the Association of MBAs and Durham Business School found 79 per cent of business schools backed a stakeholder focus, a concept also favoured by six out of 10 alumni.
In addition, eight of 10 business schools believe to a large or very large extent that corporate social responsibility should be at the core of an organisation's actions.
Commentators say the results indicate that the days when it was 'all about profit' are over and that business schools appear eager to produce 'well rounded', ethics focused executives.
