PROPOSED MANDATE FOR UNIVERSITY COUNCIL
TITLE: Major and Minor in Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability
OBJECTIVE:
The objective of this major is to develop leaders whose goal is to lead and work for the Greater
Good. This includes several components, including leadership, social responsibility, ethics, and
justice. Leading for the greater good entails awareness of and striving for success as defined by
the widely accepted sustainability planet/people/profit triple bottom-line. This encompasses the
need for efficient use of natural resources, lifestyles that minimize pollution, organizations that
are socially responsible, societies that recognize the importance of fairness, and principled
individuals who behave in an ethical manner. The proposed major aims to develop leaders who
are ethically sound and socially just—in short, to be men and women for others. The program’s
objective is to fundamentally prepare students to lead and organize sustainably and for
sustainability. We plan to offer both a major and a minor in this program of study. The proposed
minor will introduce students to the critical frameworks and concepts within the domain of
Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability.
The proposed program will encompass the range of necessary attributes that individuals within
organizations need to be truly sustainable beyond economic needs, such as social responsibility,
fairness and justice, ethics, and attention to the greater good. Because the major will focus
mostly on the “people” and “profit” dimensions of the triple bottom line, our objective is to
provide a program complementary to the Minor in Environmental and Sustainability Studies
which is offered by the College of Arts and Sciences and is more focused on the “planet”
dimension. An important aspect of this proposal is to increase the cross-fertilization of different
sustainability initiatives at SJU. Both HSB and CAS students interested in augmenting their
chosen concentration with the Minor in Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability
will also benefit from the coursework. The proposed program has the following objectives:



Provide interested students with the tools, theory, and practical knowledge required to
contribute to their development as leaders who conscientiously strive for excellence in
triple-bottom line outcomes
As a unique program in the region, attract new students to Saint Joseph's University.
Gain national recognition as a specialized program in ethical leadership and
organizational sustainability within the framework described in the attached proposal.
REASONS FOR PROPOSED MANDATE:
The proposed major rests on a need to develop individuals who are prepared to lead in an age in
which business practices for the social good have become a necessity. We perceive a vacuum in
the market of degree offerings which Saint Joseph’s University is uniquely qualified to fill.
Among our fellow Jesuit schools of business, six have majors in Leadership, yet none has a
1
specific focus on ethical or sustainable leadership. Among our regional peer or aspirant schools,
only one (the University of Delaware) has a comparable leadership major, which is housed in its
School of Urban Affairs and Public Policy. Furthermore, all of the sustainability-related
undergraduate majors we could find pertain primarily to environmental sustainability, with
relatively little (if any) focus on the other two components of the triple-bottom line framework
(i.e., people and profit).
As described in the attached proposal, we believe that the establishment of a Leadership, Ethics,
and Organizational Sustainability major and minor are highly consistent with the mission of
Jesuit education. This is evidenced by the fact that, as documented in the attached proposal,
program objectives are explicitly based on Saint Joseph’s University (SJU) Mission Statement,
on SJU Plan 2020, on Haub School Business’ (HSB) Mission Statement, and on the HSB
strategic plan. Furthermore, we believe that such a program can significantly contribute to the
social and economic well-being of the Greater Philadelphia Metropolitan Area.
The proposed major and minor both fill a programmatic vacuum and is entirely consistent with
Saint Joseph’s unique Catholic and Jesuit identity and mission. As such, we feel the proposed
program has the potential to attract additional outstanding students to Saint Joseph’s University
and develop the program’s graduates into men and women who are committed to contributing to
the greater good.
We believe the Department of Management is very well positioned to offer the proposed major.
Leadership studies have been a mainstay in the Management major and in departmental offerings
since its inception. The efficient use of resources traditionally has been a main focus of courses
in the department. Furthermore, Ethics and Corporate Social Responsibility has been an integral
part of many Management Department courses for years, as evidenced by the current Business,
Society and Ethics class as well as the fact that several faculty members have completed the
Ethics Across the Curriculum initiative. We see the major as an effective vehicle to broaden the
ethics education at SJU.

Proposal for Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability Major and Minor
Overview of Proposed Major and Minor
1. Program Objectives
The objective of this major is to develop leaders whose goal is to lead and work for the Greater
Good. This includes several components, including leadership, social responsibility, ethics, and
justice. Leading for the greater good entails awareness of and striving for success as defined by
the widely accepted sustainability planet/people/profit triple bottom-line. This encompasses the
need for efficient use of natural resources, lifestyles that minimize pollution, organizations that
are socially responsible, societies that recognize the importance of fairness, and principled
individuals who behave in an ethical manner. We aim to develop leaders who are ethically sound
and socially just - in short, to be men and women for others. The proposed major will prepare
students to lead and organize sustainably and for sustainability. Furthermore, the proposed minor
will introduce students to the critical frameworks and concepts within the domain of Leadership,
Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability.
We perceive a vacuum in the market of degree offerings which our institution is uniquely
qualified to fill. Among our fellow Jesuit schools of business, six have majors in Leadership, yet
none has a specific focus on ethical or sustainable leadership. Among our regional peer or
aspirant schools, only the University of Delaware has a comparable leadership major, which is
housed in its School of Urban Affairs and Public Policy. Furthermore, all of the sustainabilityrelated undergraduate majors we could find pertain primarily to environmental sustainability,
with relatively little (if any) focus on the other two bottom lines (i.e., people and profit). As
described herein, we believe that a Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability major is
highly consistent with the mission of Jesuit education. Furthermore, we believe that such a
program can contribute to the social and economic well-being of the Greater Philadelphia
Metropolitan Area.
We envision the following objectives for the program:



Provide interested students with the tools, theory, and practical knowledge required to
contribute to their development as leaders who conscientiously strive for excellence in
triple-bottom line outcomes
As a unique program in the region, attract new students to Saint Joseph's University.
Gain national recognition as a specialized program in ethical leadership and
organizational sustainability within the framework described in section 2 below.

2. Rationale for Proposal
A poll of departmental faculty interests and collective vision of the department indicated that
Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability would be a major that would be not only of
interest, but also a major that our department could distinctively offer. The proposed major rests
on a need to develop individuals who are prepared to lead in an age in which business practices
for the social good have become a necessity. We begin by characterizing the context and the
main building blocks of the program through the lens of the triple bottom line framework of
planet/people/profit that is a foundation of the dialogue on sustainability.
The United Nation’s Bruntland Commission’s 1987 report defined sustainable development as
“meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet
their own needs.” The term sustainability has since been expanded to aspects of human life and
endeavor far beyond development and has come to represent the simultaneous fulfillment of
environmental, social, and economic sustainability conditions, as depicted graphically below (see
Adams 2006).
Broadly stated, environmental sustainability, also known as the “planet” component, relates to
judicious use of natural resources, to pollution prevention, and to effective environmental
management. Social sustainability, also known as the “people” component, relates to equitable
opportunity and wealth distribution, to fairness and justice, and to ethical behavior. Economic
sustainability, also known as the “profit” component, relates to the need for economic growth
and the efficient use of resources.
The proposed major serves the purpose of developing student awareness of the triple-bottom
line, and will place emphasis on the “people” and the “profit” dimensions of the above
diagram—an emphasis encapsulated in the term “organizational sustainability.” As such the
major will encompass the range of necessary attributes that individuals within organizations need
to be truly sustainable beyond the need for economic sustainability, such as social responsibility,
fairness and justice, ethics, and attention to the greater good. Because the major will focus
mostly on the “people” and “profit” dimensions, our objective is to provide a program
complementary to the Minor in Environmental and Sustainability Studies which is offered by the
College of Arts and Sciences and is more focused on the “planet” dimension. Both HSB and
CAS students interested in augmenting their chosen concentration with the Minor in Leadership,
Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability will also benefit from the coursework. An important
4
aspect of this proposal is to increase the cross-fertilization of different sustainability initiatives at
SJU.
3. Mission Implications of Proposed Major and Minor
The establishment of a Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability major and minor is
not only consistent with, but also is supported by, the Saint Joseph’s University (SJU) Mission
Statement, SJU Plan 2020 (draft), the Haub School Business (HSB) Mission Statement, and the
HSB strategic plan.
The SJU Mission Statement reads:
Saint Joseph's espouses the educational priorities of the Society of Jesus which
include: searching for God in all things, pursuit of the greater good, the service of
faith together with the promotion of justice, and effective compassion for the poor
and those in need.
As described in the previous section, the proposed major encompasses these educational
priorities through the belief that social justice and solid ethical foundations are necessary
conditions for long-term sustainability.
The published draft version of SJU Plan 2020 has several pertinent aspects:
Building on the foundation of the liberal arts, Saint Joseph’s will enhance the
educational experience in the classroom through implementation of the new
General Education Program and through expansion of curricular offerings
characterized by interdisciplinary inquiry. New programs that leverage Saint
Joseph’s strengths, are mission-driven, and will increase demand for an SJU
education are also planned. (p. 10)
The proposed major will, as noted above, be a natural partner with the Minor in Environmental
and Sustainability Studies housed in the College of Arts and Sciences, and the proposed minor
will certainly be on interest to CAS students—thereby satisfying the interdisciplinary inquiry—
and it is clearly focused on Saint Joseph’s unique strengths and mission.
Plan 2020 also has as one of the key components of the strategic initiative for Academic
Distinction a stated focus on Ethical Leadership (p. 12). Currently, no undergraduate leadership
program—either in the curriculum or co-curriculum—exists, so the proposed major fills a
clearly-stated strategic need.
The HSB Mission Statement states that the school seeks:
excellence in business education that offers… wholeness via education of men
and women in service to others in accordance with the Ignatian tradition.
We believe the proposed major offers a unique opportunity to help students incorporate Ignatian
5
values into their very fabric, therefore preparing them to occupy positions of leadership for
organizational sustainability.
In listing HSB’s core values, the Mission Statement further states the school’s commitment to:
innovative niche programs –from its inception, the HSB has been entrepreneurial
in its approach to targeting and serving the needs of key industries and strategic
niches.
We feel that the proposed major fills the needs of a strategic niche in a way that SJU is uniquely
capable of doing because of the strength of our business education tradition, which incorporates
faith and justice, and which provides a strong ethical foundation to students.
We believe the Department of Management is very well positioned to offer the proposed major.
Leadership studies have been a mainstay in the Management major and in departmental offerings
since its inception. The efficient use of resources traditionally has been a main focus of courses
in the department. Furthermore, ethics and Corporate Social Responsibility has been an integral
part of many Management Department courses for years, as evidenced by the current Business,
Society and Ethics class as well as the fact that several faculty have completed the Ethics Across
the Curriculum initiative. We see the major as an effective vehicle to broaden the ethics
education at SJU.
Program Description
1. Proposed Curriculum Outline - Major
The Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability major is being created by transforming
the current curriculum offered as the Management major. To inform this transformation, we
conducted a comprehensive search for majors in Leadership and/or Business Ethics across all
Jesuit universities and across all regional peers and aspirants, as well as a nation-wide search for
majors in Sustainability. This search highlighted the paucity of direct competition in the specific
major we are proposing (except for University of Delaware’s major in Organizational and
Community Leadership), and it provided us several ideas regarding structure and content of the
proposed major.
The proposed major will consist of six courses, as outlined below:
Required courses (3):
LEO 210: Business, Stakeholders, and Ethics (revised course)
Prerequisite: MGT110/120/121
LEO 214: Perspectives on Leadership
Prerequisite: LEO210
LEO 495: Applied Sustainable Leadership (new capstone course)
Prerequisites: LEO 210 and LEO 214
6
Electives (choose 3 from the following):
MGT 211: Advanced Topics in OB
MHC 230: Introduction to Human Capital Management
FBE 331: Social Entrepreneurship
MHC 231: Diversity in the workplace
MGT 213: Negotiation Skills
IBU 420: International Management
MKT 450: Environmental Sustainability and Green Marketing
Study Tour*
* Up to one elective can be taken outside the department, yet still within HSB, that focus on
Triple-Bottom line concerns in business; as other HSB courses that explicitly concern the triplebottom line framework are developed (e.g., Triple-Bottom Line Accounting or Micro-Finance),
we will add them to the list of electives.
Further, while it is outside the scope of this proposal, we intend to use the Integrated Learning
Component of the General Education Program to provide interdisciplinary breadth to the major
by requiring students to take, in addition to Macroeconomics, two College of Arts and Sciences
courses pertaining to Environmental Sustainability and Economic Development.
The proposed major will be available to all Saint Joseph’s University business students. College
of Arts & Sciences students will be able to double major in Leadership, Ethics, and
Organizational Sustainability subject to meeting all the pre-requisites.
2. Proposed Required Course Descriptions
Following are the course descriptions for the three required classes in the major.
LEO 210: Business, Stakeholders, and Ethics (revised from Business, Society, & Ethics)
This course analyzes the question, “Does business have a social responsibility?”
through the examination of various internal and external stakeholders of the
contemporary business organization. Students will be introduced to frameworks
and theoretical principles in ethics that may be used as foundations to the analysis
of the question above. Students then will learn how stakeholder management
relates to an organization’s triple bottom line of people, planet, and profits. The
course includes theoretical concepts and practical analysis, exposing students to
some of the ethical dilemmas confronted by employees in the workplace, and
serves to help students enhance their skills in resolving these types of dilemmas.
LEO 214: Perspectives on Leadership
This course aims to increase students’ knowledge and skills concerning effective
leadership. Through a seminar format we will employ a historical perspective to
investigate different approaches, models, and contexts to leadership. We will then
explore the contemporary role of leadership in work organizations. Through
7
workshops, we will develop skill competencies critical to effective self, team, and
organizational leadership. Students will have an opportunity to apply their
knowledge and skills to a leadership experience they design and implement
themselves
LEO 495: Applied Leadership and Sustainability (capstone)
This course is an integrative practicum in which students (either individually or in
teams) undertake an action-learning project in an organization under the direction
of a faculty member with the objective of applying leadership and sustainability
concepts developed throughout the program. Students will work with live clients
(e.g., non-profit organizations or for-profit businesses) to help them improve their
triple bottom-line performance along the people, planet, and profits dimensions
and test their leadership skills as they do so. To be taken Senior year.
3. Proposed Curriculum Outline – Minor
The minor in Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability could be attractive to a
diverse set of business and liberal arts majors who have interest in leadership and sustainability
issues and ideally would combine well with most majors in the university because the skills
developed are widely transferable.
The new minor is designed to provide both Business and Arts and Sciences students the
opportunity to gain an understanding of the theory and practical knowledge required to function
as leader for the greater good, including awareness of the need to define success as the
sustainability planet/people/profit triple bottom-line. The minor requires students to complete a
six course program of study. The first two courses in the minor are part of the HSB core:
Essentials of Organizational Behavior (MGT110) or Essentials of Management (MGT120) or
Organizations in Perspective (MGT121) and Legal Environment of Business (MGT360).
The requirements for the minor are summarized below.
Required Courses (5):
MGT 110, 120 or 121 Essentials
No prerequisite; part of HSB core
MGT360: Legal Environment of Business
No prerequisite; part of HSB core
LEO 210: Business, Stakeholders, and Ethics (revised course)
Prerequisite: MGT110/120/121
LEO 214: Perspectives on Leadership
Prerequisite: LEO 210
LEO 495: Applied Sustainable Leadership (new capstone course)
Prerequisites: LEO 210 and LEO 214
Elective (choose 1 from the following):
MGT 211: Advanced Topics in OB
8
MHC 230: Introduction to Human Capital Management
FBE 331: Social Entrepreneurship
MHC 231: Diversity in the workplace
MGT 213: Negotiation Skills
IBU 420: International Management
Courses taken for the Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability major or minor
cannot “double count” for courses required for other majors or minors offered by the Department
of Management.
4. Learning Objectives (and Related Assessment)
The goal of the new major is to provide students with the opportunity to gain specialized
knowledge within the framework of a liberal arts education. Because of the nature of leadership
and of sustainability, the learning objectives for courses within the new major typically fall into
the categories of “problem solving” or “functional.” Additionally, all upper-level courses in the
major require students to complete written case analyses or class presentations, enhancing the
students’ communication skills. Finally, the capstone course strengthens the student’s
understanding of the Jesuit tradition by applying the lessons from the major in a real-life manner
to exemplify being men and women for others.
The major will have one faculty member designated as the program director. The responsibility
of the program director will be to:
• To promote the Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability program within
SJU.
• Review all course syllabi, verifying that each course clearly identifies learning
objectives, and that these objectives are from at least two of the following categories:
problem solving, functional, communication, Ignatian values, global/diversity, and
strategic thinking.
• Review tests and assignments (on a sample basis) from the courses in the major, to
verify that these assessments focus on learning objectives defined in the course syllabi.
• Verify that peer reviews of teaching are performed for all tenure-track and adjunct
instructors teaching courses within a major on a periodic basis. As part of this process,
the coordinator will review grade distributions for all courses offered in the major.
5. Implementation Timeline
It is our hope that the proposed major will be implemented in time for the fall semester of 2011.
Prior to implementation, one course needs to be revised (from Business, Society, and Ethics to
Business, Stakeholders, and Ethics), and within one year a new course (Applied Sustainable
Leadership) will need to be developed since it is the capstone for the major. The other courses
9
included as requirements or electives are currently developed and listed in the Undergraduate
Course Catalog.
Marketing Plan
1. Target Students
The target audience for the Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability major will
include two categories of students. First, students who are enrolled at SJU who would like to
have stronger emphasis on leadership for the greater good and the related specific coursework.
Second, students who may be attracted to SJU because of this major given its uniqueness and the
lack of any similar alternatives in the Philadelphia area or in other Jesuit Universities, as
described in the Competition Analysis section below. These target students are expected to have
interests in business as well as in service, and are expected to come with a holistic view of
management.
2. Career Potential
The Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability major will offer students both short
term and long term potential career opportunities.
a. In the beginning of students’ careers it is expected that specific knowledge and skills
related to holistic leadership and organizational training will be very useful in the job
market because of increasing employer focus on overarching sustainability issues.
b. In the long term the major would provide the foundation for the development of careers
that culminate with overall corporate responsibility for sustainability. One recent
corporate trend, for example, has been the creation of the position of “Chief
Sustainability Officer” (CSO) with responsibility for integrating all related actions within
the company, as exemplified by AT&T, Siemens, and DuPont.
c. Moreover, the skills acquired by students graduating with this major (e.g. leadership,
creativity, strategic decision-making, resource management, critical analysis, strategic
planning, and broad world-view) in completing the program are all attractive and relevant
in a traditional corporate environment contributing to our graduates’ success if pursuing a
position in the corporate world.
d. Lastly, this proposed major would be a natural fit for students who wish to embark on a
career in non-profit management since non-profits are commonly devoted to the social
and/or environmental aspects of sustainability.
3. Competition Analysis
The competitive analysis for the envisioned Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational
Sustainability major is extensive because it builds on several disciplines and therefore entails
comparisons with different majors. Tightly defined, there is only one direct competitor to our
proposed major because it includes components of Leadership, Sustainability, and Ethics
(including Business Ethics and Corporate Social Responsibility). We therefore extended our
10
analysis to majors in each of those areas and we report our findings here.
Regarding Leadership, we found six Jesuit colleges or universities that currently have
undergraduate Leadership majors. Three of these (Boston College, LeMoyne College, and Saint
Louis University) are offered to traditional undergraduate day students, and are packaged
broadly as “Leadership and Management” degrees. Three others (Loyola Chicago, Rockhurst
University, and University of San Francisco) are degrees offered through their schools of
continuing and professional studies. Remarkably, none of these six Jesuit schools appears to
leverage their Jesuit identity/mission by offering a uniquely Jesuit or explicitly ethical view of
leadership. Locally, only the University of Delaware offers an undergraduate Organizational and
Community Leadership degree (through its School of Urban Affairs and Public Policy); this
degree includes a course called “Leadership for the Common Good” and affords students the
chance to take four courses in areas of interest such as Environmental Sustainability, Public
Policy, Global Perspectives, or Intercultural Dynamics.
Furthermore, we have found that the word “sustainability” when used in the name of a major,
usually refers to the environmental dimension (i.e., the planet component) of the sustainability
triad. Of the twenty-seven Jesuit institutions, 16 offer undergraduate majors with emphasis on
the “planet” dimension, and most of them are called “Environmental Studies.” Locally, all five
major competitors (UPenn, Temple, Drexel, Villanova, and LaSalle) offer majors in
sustainability, but all except one (UPenn) seems solely focused on environmental (planet) issues.
UPenn offers an inter-school “Sustainability and Environmental Management” minor that does
seem to incorporate people and profit components to the planet emphasis. More broadly, we
examined 26 different undergraduate sustainability programs across the country. Only 8 of them
include the “people” component explicitly, usually within the context of economic development;
11 of them include explicit mention to “sustainable business,” but this use generally equated to
“green business practices.”
4. Enrollment Projections
While there is no concrete way of projecting future enrollments, as we stated earlier, one of our
primary objectives in proposing this major and minor is to attract more students to SJU by
offering a distinctly Jesuit and mission-focused program. To assess latent demand for the
proposed major, we analyzed enrollment trends in the Management major over the past ten years.
Over the past decade, about 8% of HSB students, on average have been enrolled in the
Management major, with a high of about 10% over the three years from AY03/04 through
AY05/06. Applying these averages into the next four years, with the enrollment growth
assumption of an additional 50 students at Saint Joseph’s per year (Plan 2020), the result would
be between 50-60 students per year with interest in the area of Management. Should the present
proposal be successful, beginning in fall of 2011, the department will roll out both the
Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability major as well as hopefully an additional
major in Managing Human Capital. Since the new majors will be more distinctive and aimed
toward more defined career paths, we anticipate demand for the new majors will be at least equal
to the previous demand for the current Management program, and we estimate about equal
interest across both new majors. Thus, we would anticipate approximately 25-30 students in the
proposed Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability major. In addition, we would
11
anticipate about 5 students per year in the proposed minor.
Resources
1. Faculty
The Department of Management has several faculty members who already teach the existing
courses that will compose the proposed major. There are also several faculty members with
teaching and research expertise suitable for the only new course, the capstone in Applied
Sustainable Leadership.
With the assumed enrollment of approximately 30-35 students per year in the major or minor, we
will need to offer an additional section of Business, Stakeholders, and Ethics as well as
Perspectives on Leadership, and two sections of the capstone course (Applied Sustainable
Leadership). These sections would be covered by existing faculty as well as adjunct faculty who
are currently teaching in the Management major. If significant interest and growth in the major
and minor materialize, new faculty lines will be needed to provide quality faculty for this
distinctive program. That said, and consistent with SJU’s Plan 2020 (p. 10), we would count on
the success of this program’s generation of sufficient revenue to allow the hiring of additional
faculty.
In short, we believe that the proposed major and minor could potentially attract significant new
interest in SJU and the Haub School of Business. However, given the implementation timeline
of initiating the major in fall of 2011, we believe that existing faculty resources are sufficient to
cover modest growth in the program over the near future.
2. Other Required Resources
The major does not require specialized resources. The university’s current technology and
library resources are sufficient to satisfy the requirements of students in the proposed major.
Methods of Program Assessment
The new major will be included in the Haub School’s Undergraduate Business Program. Thus,
the major will be subject to the school’s existing program assessment procedures.
Program Budget
Most leadership and sustainability programs are inter-disciplinary in nature and this one is no
exception. Consistent with this, the proposed Leadership, Ethics, and Organizational
Sustainability major will draw from courses offered by various departments. Since the
Management Department will offer the majority of courses, we propose housing the Leadership,
12
Ethics, and Organizational Sustainability major in the Management Department for budgetary
and administrative purposes.
