"We are facing an unprecedented time of economic, social,
environmental and technological challenges. These challenges are mainly seen through a series of crises. They also give rise to new thinking on a forward-looking and operational basis for big challenges in the near future.
We can mention the following themes:
• The future challenges of Business & sustainability (ESG rating, New Business models, circular economy, beyond growth, climate change, etc.)
• The future challenges of Inclusive Leadership and Well-Being management at work (Transformational leadership, new forms of work, diversity & inclusion, feminism in practices, etc.)
• The future challenges of International Business and economy, and the new geopolitical order (Geopolitical challenges for European Business, globalization of European Business, Scale-ups in Europe, etc.)
• The future challenges of Disruptive Technologies Management (Deep Tech, A.I., digitalplatforms, unicorns, affordances & issues of big data, etc.)
• The future challenges of Innovation, creativity and entrepreneurial transformations (Art thinking, Design thinking, new consumption models, etc.)
• The future challenges of markets and societies (societal transformations, consumption behaviours, philosophy of management...)
• And, of course, because ESCP Business School is a higher education institution first and foremost, we open the edition with contributions about the future of higher education in management studies!"
