My name is Lara Gast and I’m a first year MBA student at the George Washington University School of Business, concentrating in Environmental Policy & Management. As someone interested in pursuing an environmental career, I was pleased to hear about the Certificate of Responsible Management now being offered through GW’s School of Business. I think the Certificate is a great way to gain a big picture understanding of the elements of social and environmental ethics, while also utilizing those values in real life applications. I hope the structure of the Certificate program will position me to become well-rounded in both classroom as well as practical applications of sustainable and responsible business practices. Looking forward to starting the process…

Hello Lara,
Wonderful to see that MBA students that are concentrating in diverse areas of business are dedicated to also becoming responsible managers.
I work on product innovation and make sure that every single need idea for a product goes through exploring the CSR impact. Takes additional work and convincing of peers that believe that just IRR is all we need to release new products. But when one is successful in the education, explaining and business examples, it is rewarding to impact the way our peers think about business. The principles of responsible management education can be applied in every interaction one has, work, school, group of friends, grocery shopping – endless opportunities to make a difference.
Best wishes to you,
Sabina Puppo
