A foundational principle of neo-Aristotelian character education is that virtue can be cultivated, in particular through the emulation of moral role models, such as teachers. Yet despite the pedagogical appeal of role modelling, what emulation involves remains methodologically unclear. In this paper, I suggest that part of this ambiguity lies in a…

Artificial intelligence technologies have become a ubiquitous part of human life. This prompts us to ask, "how should we live well with artificial intelligence?" Currently, the most prominent candidate answers to this question are principlist. According to these approaches, if you teach people some finite set of principles or convince…

Organizational core values set the foundation for defining an organization's purpose and direction. Focusing on core values is important because it can sometimes be easy to forget why an organization exists and overlook its true purpose. Educational leaders and stakeholders should embrace their institution's core values as way for their…

Teachers' judgements and interactions may be influenced by the backgrounds of their students, yet research shows that they may be reluctant to accept evidence relating to such biases. We investigated teachers' perceptions of their own and others' biases and explored whether a brief self-affirmation manipulation--which tends to reduce defensive…

The purpose of this study included systematically identifying commonalities in the leadership qualities of successful principals, analyzing the relationships among these qualities, and studying how the qualities vary and interact across school contexts. This study explored how successful principals acquire and apply these qualities to achieve…

This article advances and illustrates the concept of "leaderhood" and argues for its role in the rediscovery and renewal of the inclusive, future-oriented spirit of the enterprise of education. Leaderhood, with its links to such concepts as "citizenhood", "elderhood", and "parenthood", is intended to convey…

A pioneering work in teaching and transpersonal psychology, "The Living Classroom" explores the dynamics of collective consciousness in the classroom. In this second edition, Bache has, in his own words, "come out of the psychedelic closet," speaking candidly about the role that psychedelics played in the development of his…

As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to be widely integrated into global economic, social, and environmental governance, its role in promoting sustainable entrepreneurship has garnered increasing scholarly attention. This research aims to uncover the predictors affecting students' pro-environmental personal norms (EPNs) and subjective norms…

Our paper is a practitioner reflection that explores the concepts of engaged learning as a means of erasing the specious divide between academia and policy/management practice. It takes the form of a conversation between the two authors, each of whom have significant experience in both camps, but who also would seem to fall more neatly into one…

This essay explores the interplay between action learning and democracy in organizations, institutions and society. We start by reflecting on the history of democracy as an emancipatory discourse in management learning and education. We elaborate on critical reflection in action-based approaches to learning and identify key elements of critical…

Although young people espouse a range of career values, the extent to which traditional career values inter-mix with protean values is unclear. We interviewed a group of young university students in Australia (N = 24, M[subscript Age] 19.4 years; 50% young men) and examined the full range of traditional and protean values held. Employing applied…

Academic dishonesty of students is a problem that threatens the integrity of educational institutions. Understanding the sources of academic dishonesty has become an urgent need, which compels higher educational institutions to evaluate and redesign approaches to address this problem. To develop new and important insights about this this form of…

Teaching business ethics is a formidable task. The lingering question of whether we can teach business ethics has plagued educators and scholars. Unlike a typical competence-based module that quantitatively reflects a student's performance through their grades, grades alone cannot represent a student's ethical conviction. The business ethics…

This chapter argues that parenting choices are a central force in the joint evolution of culture and economic outcomes. We present a framework in which parents--motivated by both their children's future success and their own normative beliefs--choose parenting styles and transmit cultural traits responding to economic incentives. Values such as…

Previous studies suggest that witnessing virtuous acts triggers moral elevation--feeling inspired and motivated to imitate the virtue. However, there is a gap in understanding differences in elevation responses to distinct virtuous acts and subsequent motivations to perform similar virtuous behavior. This study explored the potential differences…
