The Conversation: Joe Arvai

Will the private sector lead on the environment because consumers and workers want it, and "money flows where sustainability grows"?
New teaching innovation: pop-up courses focus on world events as they happen; how Trump will test the theory of when leaders actually matter; CEOs weigh in on what Trump could mean for companies, employees and the economy; Google, Facebook and Twitter are taking steps to curb fake news and harassment; some tough post-election questions for business leaders; if " no politician can bring back jobs" is it time for some version of Milton Friedman's negative income tax?; navigating traumatic events online; and how can a divided America heal?
Have an idea worth teaching?
 
Ideas Worth Teaching  is a tightly curated, weekly email for business school faculty to prompt new conversations in the classroom about the relationships between corporations, capital markets, and the public good. Its intent is to provide "drag and drop" functionality - allowing faculty to easily use the articles, cases and other teaching materials that we will be sharing in their class discussions.
