Value Based Education At SPJIMR

The importance of values and ethics in business has been undermined in the past. With businesses being driven by the desire to capture market share, profit maximization, aggressive marketing and the race for acquisitions, we’ve somewhere forgotten the importance of our values and ethics while taking decisions. The age-old ideology that business is separate from personal life and thus the two must not be mixed has played a major role in the lack of ethics in business decisions. The root of all this lies in our education system. The importance of value based education, especially in the area of business management is immense. Over the past few years, institutions like SPJIMR have been focusing extensively on promoting value-based learning in order to produce socially sensitive leaders of tomorrow who would be driven by strong ethics and values.
