| Beyond BP - co-creating a real-time case |
Help co-create, real-time, a case and teaching note on the BP Gulf of Mexico oil spill.
At the 1st International Conference in Responsible Leadership in Africa, hosted by Pretoria University 18-20 May 2010, every keynote speaker referred to the unfolding crisis for BP in the Gulf of Mexico. At the annual meeting of the Global Education Research Network held immediately afterwards, participants, all of whom had been at the Pretoria conference, decided to produce a mini business school case study real-time; and to invite other academics and corporate responsibility / corporate communications experts to co-create the mini-case and teaching note as living documents.
David Grayson, Director of the Doughty Centre for Corporate Responsibility at Cranfield School of Management, has been working on the design, through open-source pooling of ideas, of a topical case on this important story. It is envisaged that the case could be used to provoke debate and learning about corporate responsibility (CR) and the different views of the differing responsibilities of global corporations, national governments, media and civil society.
The case is principally written for executive education and MBA classes in globalisation, international business strategy and CR. It can, however, also be used in classes in crisis management, leadership, corporate governance, corporate communications and corporate reputation, and to illustrate debates about new forms of governance and regulation in courses on international relations.
How can I participate?
