Challenge

… Business schools don’t effectively address the practical and broad issues facing corporate leaders today because such issues aren’t on the faculty’s research agenda. Serving the needs of the business community by educating practitioners, and creating knowledge they can use, may exist as secondary functions at those business schools, but they are goals honored mainly in speeches made by deans seeking donations from corporate executives. (Bennis, W., & O’Toole, J. (2005)

It is inspired on organizational and social problems and challenges to ensure the creation of sustainable value through time.
It generates social impact and improves the performance of organizations.
It is robust, innovative, and risk-taking in methodological terms.
It is carried out in a collaborative way, highlighting the value of generating positive impact from different perspectives.
It is effectively communicated to all stakeholders of the School to benefit from the knowledge generated.
It is transdisciplinary, aiming for high impact collaboration with other Institutes and Schools at Tecnológico de Monterrey, as well as prestigious international partners.
