Yearly Plan (2019)
Goals for 2019
In addition to existing research, as a new endeavor we will hold workshops and lectures on inclusive leadership; further, we will also establish an "Inclusive Week". We will create a video series of these initiatives and, by using SNS, our website and similar to publicize them, we will expand our brand image among the general public and within the business world. Additionally, we will take advantage of the AAPBS general meeting to conduct a survey on inclusive leadership among the more than 200 business school representatives in attendance in order to understand global trends.
