Wherever they are across the world, business schools have been, and are, becoming more susceptible to onset, impacts and influences of disasters. Alongside this, and as vibrant places of advanced research, learning and contemporary debate and discussion, they are also increasingly sensitive to the influences and impacts of wider global events that require Business Schools and their leaders, faculty and students to consider and adapt to. Regardless of the scenario and circumstance, Business schools must enhance their resilience and develop specific arrangements for handling the onsets and impacts of crises and disasters that affect them and their wider region and environment. For Business School leaders understanding the state of the art in enhancing resilience and the strategic and operational value of resilience is an important component of effective leadership. This includes more effective understanding and management of resilience, risks and hazards, the development of plans, systems, processes and procedures to reduce risks of, prepare for and respond to events and incidents. They also need to communicate effectively with and care for staff, students and stakeholders on and off campus and more widely. There are also increasingly potentials to grasp technological solutions to enhance further resilience. Business Schools, embodied in the AACSB’s commitments to and standards relating to societal impact, also have a pivotal role to play in supporting their local, national and international constituencies and communities when crises and disasters occur. Join a cohort of your peers for highly interactive sessions on how your school can grasp the strategic value of resilience and implement effective resilience strategies to alleviate the impact of events/shocks as well as fulfil the requirements of the AACSB’s 2020 business accreditation standards.
