CEEMAN (Central and Eastern European Management Development Association) has just released the preliminary results of their survey,  Business Schools Responses to Global Crisis. 

The results, based on 179 responses from 47 countries from all over the world, were first presented at the CEEMAN Deans and Directors Meeting on Global Crisis and Business School Responses in the context of the 17th CEEMAN Annual Conference on Local Responses to Global Crisis, held on 24-26 September in Riga, Latvia (see www.ceeman.org for more information). 

This survey was designed by Al Rosenbloom, Dominican University, River Forest, IL, USA, and Milenko Gudić, IMTA Director, CEEMAN, Slovenia, long before the breakout of the deep global crisis and carried out when its symptoms became evident. It was carried out in November 2008 in the context of CEEMAN continuous efforts to contribute to the development of responsible leadership, including through the promotion and implementation of the Principles of Responsible Management Education (PRME).

The survey provides an interesting insight into how CSR issues are integrated into the education curricula and particularly on the attitudes towards the poor, seriousness of the poverty problem and the role that management education could play in global poverty reduction. Very indicative are also lessons regarding the most important facilitating factors in promoting the legitimacy of poverty as a management education topic.
