There was a guest lecture by Dr. Michele V.
Gee on 7th of January 2015 in the SIMSREE
Auditorium. The topic of discussion was "Global Corporate
Social Responsibility and Strategic Management".
Dr. Michele V. Gee is the Associate Dean at College of Business,
Economics and Computing (University of Wisconsin, Parkside - USA). Professor Gee specializes in strategic management and international
business. She currently teaches Business Policy and Global Issues in
Management. Prior to her academic experiences, Professor Gee was a marketing
manager at IBM and AT&T. Professor Gee has presented her research in
numerous international, national, and regional academic and professional
conferences on topics such as cross-cultural management, strategic analyses of organizations
and industries, and economic development issues. She has reviewed existing and
proposed textbooks in strategic management, and has provided extensive
strategic planning consulting to organizations and businesses.
While talking about
Global Corporate responsibility she said that India ranks amongst one of the
topmost countries, where importance is given to social responsibility. When she
asked students about the importance of CSR, nearly 98% believe that it is
important to give something back to the society as CSR. She was overwhelmed
with the response of students and also further cleared that there would not
have been same response if she asked same question in US. Hence the difference in views of the people makes it really difficult to
judge whether it is a right decision or not.
She also explained that rules for abortion in INDIA and that in US are
way different. Thus, it creates a big question in the minds of people that what
is to be considered right and what not. Similar is the thought process for the
Global Corporate Social Responsibility and Strategic Management. This short
lecture helped students in understanding not only National perspective but a
Global perspective for the topic which was discussed. A broader view for the
same cleared the importance and scope for the CSR activities and its importance
in the near future.
The session overall
was very interesting and interactive which gave students new perspective to
look towards the subject of Global
Corporate Social Responsibility and Strategic Management.
