I learned from my TA, Pia, that business is more than just making money. She always stressed the importance of actually making a valuable contribution to society, as well. This changed my perspective of the business world entirely, as I formerly saw it as only being concerned with profit-making. Prior to Pia’s lesson, I thought CSR was just a buzzword of the times, and nothing more. Now I see that it is actually going to prove extremely important in this next century, and businesses will have to adapt. This means that in Sauder, as the next generation of businesspeople, it is crucial that we learn how to conduct ethical business.
