Kellogg
joins Aspen Institute's Teaching Innovation Program
Kellogg
will join seven other select business schools and leading
corporations in the Teaching Innovation Program (TIP), directed
by the Aspen Institute's Business and Society Program with
support from the GE Foundation.
The Aspen
Institute is a renowned international nonprofit organization
devoted to fostering enlightened leadership on contemporary
world issues.
As part
of TIP, the Kellogg School will help develop a curriculum
that prepares graduates to assume leadership roles in encouraging
businesses to contribute to a sustainable global society.
Each
business school involved with TIP will participate in three
collective strategy sessions whose goal is establishing a
pilot project in their respective schools and developing strategies
for making other schools aware of these values-oriented programs.
In its
application to the Teaching Innovation Program, the Kellogg
School highlighted its ongoing leadership role in promoting
dialogue on social impact management among its students.
Particular
Kellogg strengths include the school's Public/ Nonprofit
Management and Business and Its Social Environment
programs, as well as the Kellogg Center for Nonprofit Management,
the Ford Center for Global Citizenship and the Center for
Business, Government and Society.
The Kellogg
School's student-run Social Impact Club also plays a supporting
role in foregrounding nonprofit and social entrepreneurship
concerns.
