Values<br />
Creating Value from Values<br />
explores the different ways that<br />
companies can develop social<br />

strategies can be aligned with<br />
business operations. The course<br />
focuses on companies that<br />
operate in developing countries<br />
with high poverty rates. It teaches<br />
through case studies, mainly<br />
from Latin American countries<br />
and different industries (banking,<br />
manufacturing and services).<br />

is to explore the intersection<br />

organizational behavior as it<br />
has evolved within the social<br />
and economic context of the US<br />
and Latin America in order to 1)<br />
map the cultural, psychological<br />
and organizational factors that<br />
impact women’s professional<br />
progress and 2) outline individual<br />
and organizational best practices<br />
in promoting more women to<br />
leadership.<br />
Sustainable<br />
Management<br />
This course aims to show how<br />
strategies related to sustainability<br />
are developed, executed and<br />
adjusted to mitigate risk. The<br />
course also provides knowledge<br />
on how sustainability initiatives<br />
could be used to support and<br />
reinforce the business’ global<br />
competitiveness. The topics<br />
of global warming, climate<br />
change and resource scarcity<br />
are introduced, as well as<br />
sustainability, frugal innovation<br />
and inclusive business models<br />
for the base of the pyramid.<br />
