You might have seen coverage of this recently in the Economist, NY Times, Financial Times, or on NPR, but in case not I thought I’d pass along a link to the MBA Oath
. It is a student-led initiative seeking to raise the standard of professionalism for MBAs, in line with other professional degrees such as medicine and law. More specifically, it is: “a voluntary pledge for graduating MBAs to “create value responsibly and ethically.” [The] goal is to begin a widespread movement of MBAs who aim to lead in the interests of the greater good and who have committed to living out the principles articulated in the oath.”
Having read and signed the Oath, I’d encourage anyone at who agrees with its’ tenets to do the same. To read the sign the MBA Oath, please visit: mbaoath.org
