Global Focus special supplement: Globally Responsible Leadership (EFMD)

A special supplement published by EFMD (European Foundation for Management Development) in partnership with the Globally Responsible Leadership Initiative (GRLI), this resource gathers diverse perspectives on how business schools and leaders can address contemporary global challenges. The collection features contributions from academics, practitioners, and business leaders examining critical topics including climate change, biodiversity loss, inclusive leadership, business model innovation, and education transformation. Articles explore the evolution of responsible leadership discourse, the future relevance of business schools, measurement approaches for responsible practice, and practical examples of collaborative action among GRLI partners. The supplement reflects the GRLI's nearly twenty-year commitment to advancing global responsibility in management education and leadership practice, emphasizing the shift from individual to collective responsibility. Published as part of Global Focus magazine (Issue 2, Volume 16), the resource underscores that addressing existential challenges requires fundamental paradigm shifts in how leaders learn, live, and lead, while acknowledging that no single solution exists for catalyzing systemic change toward globally responsible practice.
