    CBERN - The First Six Years: Challenges and Achievements

    Get PDF
    CBERN was created in 2006. Its mandate was to create a network able to address critically, persuasively and visibly the foundational role of ethics in business and economic development. The task facing the network was significant. The field was fractured by suspicion, hostility and lack of communication and trust between and among people and organizations in the private, public, voluntary and academic sectors. Research was siloed in the four different sectors and a variety of academic disciplines and sub disciplines. What is more, the role of business ethics in management education and academic research agendas was modest and relatively insubstantial. The challenge facing CBERN has been to address these challenges and build the foundations for change.A successful proposal for a 2.1millionStrategicKnowledgeClustersgrantin2006.Theproposalwassupportedbyapproximately2.1 million Strategic Knowledge Clusters grant in 2006.
