Summary
Organisations and managers are increasingly being held accountable for CSR in their spheres of operation. While a few organisations already have structures to deal with competing demands from stakeholders with regards to corporate social responsibilities, some are caught flatfooted. This paper takes a look at the theoretical underpinning of CSR and CRS education in the literature. It also focuses on exploring the following questions. How do leaders or managers acquire the sensibilities of being in tune with the social responsibilities of an organisation? How do managers acquire the necessary knowledge and sense to handle corporate social responsibilities expectations? How are MBA institutions handling this critical task of preparing mangers as decisionmakers in charge of CSR for the future? Can a model emerge from current CSR education practices? These issues are addressed in this chapter.
