Drawing together insights from across the expert faculty, Managing Complexity in the Global Organization presents IMD’s framework on how to understand complexity and its four key drivers (diversity; interdependence; ambiguity and flux), along with solutions on specific issues in a variety of functions, industries and markets. The focus is on providing practical solutions based on real-life examples.

No “one-size-fits-all” model emerges as a solution. Rather, the insights in this book take idiosyncrasies and dynamics over time into consideration. They consider the main issues and their real causes, ownership settings, country settings and new developments in corporate governance research and practice.

Corruption often flourishes in times of uncertainty and crisis. When institutions and oversight are weak, and public trust low, corruption can thrive and undermine how societies respond to the crisis. Covid-19 brought this issue into sharp focus, and this book uncovers some of the problems experienced across the globe and, crucially, explains how organizations and countries can strengthen their anti-corruption systems to prevent problems in the future.

The book has been created by the members of the United Nations Principles for Responsible Management Education group on anti-corruption and brings together top international experts to consolidate the lessons from the Covid-19 crisis in order to improve transparency, integrity, trust, and governance in the future. Cybersecurity and cybercrime related to the pandemic are a particular focus. These factors are essential to social and economic order. Practice-oriented, each chapter offers examples of methods, approaches, tools, and cases which can be used for anti-corruption teaching, policy, and corporate initiatives.

With insights and cases from right across the globe, the book will be of interest to NGOs, policymakers, organizational leaders, students, and researchers looking to foster accountability, integrity, and transparency across organizations in times of crisis.

Beyond researching and teaching responsible management, business schools should aspire to walk the talk. They ought to become role models and responsible organisations themselves. Focussing on the original UK and Ireland institutions who committed to this initiative formally by becoming signatories, this book considers how this role-modelling behaviour has been applied.

Based on a number of personal interviews with PRME initiative leads, this book provides a two-dimensional framework based on structure and motivation as critical levers for progress in responsible management organisational practice. It offers unique recommendations on how to better frame and improve organisational practices in PRME member schools. Specifically, this book: 1. sheds light on how to bring PRME to life beyond teaching and research practices; 2. provides recommendations on how dean and PRME initiative leads in signatory institutions can better understand their current organisational practices and prepare improvements over time; and 3. energises and catalyses research on best organisational practices based on a clear research agenda.

This book is relevant to all stakeholders of modern management education, in particular, business school deans, university presidents, programme directors, PRME leads and non-academic leaders in business schools, such as COOs or managing directors.
