The United Nations’ Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) initiative has embraced and driven awareness of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) throughout business and management schools across the globe. Whilst promoting a common, global framework for transitions, progress continues to be deeply entangled with wider neo-liberal structures which perpetuate economic advancement over equality, equity and environmental justice. Now, the achievement of the SDGs through management education requires creative and pluralistic approaches that embrace both Global North and Global South perspectives, taking into consideration differences in the challenges of sustainability and the on-going geopolitical inequalities in resources and power.This Companion is not only essential, but also critically timely; countries around the world continue to call climate and poverty emergencies as they see and feel the dramatic and unequally distributed effects of climate change. A group of leading contributors from across the globe tackle how and whether business schools can produce the next generation of leaders to tackle the SDGs.The book is suitable for those engaged in management education and the SDG, such as researchers, students, early career researchers or university teachers, the more experienced researcher or teacher, and importantly, leaders at different levels within business or management schools such as module or programme leaders, heads of department, associate or assistant deans of teaching and learning, and indeed, deans themselves.

The first volume of this ground-breaking book critically examines how and why arts-based methods such as choir conducting workshops and dialogue improvisation can make a difference in improving professional practice. Taking a ‘human-centred’ approach, it delivers an insightful account of what these approaches do differently to achieve a new mode of learning – ‘sensuous learning’ – that cultivates professional judgment to serve the common good, simultaneously supporting personal and collective growth. The chapters present cutting edge examples of multiple ways arts-based methods underpin learning arenas for expanding leadership and improving professional practice. The reflexivity cultivated through these learning arenas has the unique potential to improve professional practice, not merely by enhancing competence but also by cultivating character and conscience, which is central in making judgments that serve the common good. These benefits are relevant for professional practitioners sharpening the skills and behaviours needed in organisations, including creativity, diversity, imagination, and improvisation.
