Conclusion

Our fast-paced, technology driven, globalized society is fraught with climate concerns, social and economic inequalities and injustices, ethical and moral dilemmas related to use of emerging technologies, such as industrial robotics and artificial intelligence, and increasingly destabilized democracies, all of which are considerations and concerns for now and into the future. We anticipate that graduates of the PSB will need to navigate an increasingly complex world throughout their lives and their careers. Their ability to meet the challenges they will face depends on their capacity and openness to adapt, to continuously learn, and to anticipate innovation and change within and among their sectors of the economy.

The Transforming Business Education initiative provides the PSB faculty with the means of integrating transformative learning principles and a competency-informed educational model into courses, programs, and co-curricular activities to support learners on a purposeful path of continued learning and development. With novel and innovative educational approaches that prepare our graduates for the opportunities and challenges of the future world of work, PSB is poised to initiate and lead productive, transformative disruptions and prepare learners to thrive in the uncertain conditions of our contemporary society (Halkias et al., 2021).
