Industrial society tends to link progress and material growth, but our planet’s resources cannot provide for endless expansion. MIT Sloan challenges its students to think differently about growth, training a new generation of leaders to use resources more effectively, consume less, and to transform the ways we live and work.
New technologies play a critical role in a more sustainable world, but they cannot achieve scale and impact without the management practices, business models, and market infrastructures to support them. This requires new forms of collaboration, which is why MIT Sloan focuses so heavily on training our students to build strong relationships across all sectors.
Social sustainability means creating great jobs in great companies and strong communities – a world that works for all. MIT Sloan has led the way in helping our students and alumni use innovative management practices and strong partnerships to create lasting solutions to social justice issues.
To create sustainable solutions we need to see the whole picture. MIT Sloan trains our students through systems thinking and system dynamics to understand context, anticipate consequences, and engage stakeholders across the sectors to find solutions with lasting value for business and society.
