B-school Students Pursue a Positive Impact
More so than ever, MBA students and alumni are seeking to have a successful business career while making a positive impact. While these professionals are as ambitious as ever, they know that success goes beyond financial measures. It means improving your company culture, using business to make social change, and improving your local community.
Upon entering business school several years ago, I found a group of like-minded students interested in sustainability and corporate social responsibility. At the time, Students for Responsible Business was a startup nonprofit based in San Francisco. Since then, the group — rebranded Net Impact — is now a national network of business professionals dedicated to encouraging the next generation of socially responsible business leaders. Net Impact now has 20,000+ members, in 280 chapters, who are changing the world.
