local area may not be actively engaged with the UN Global Compact and associated initiatives. What can you do as business management students to change this? What will you do to change this? Is this enough?

Potential reasons for Inactive engagement of business with UN Global Compact and their associates:
  • Unaligned organizational strategies 
  • Irresponsibility towards the eradication of corruption for the good of humankind
  • Non-competitive future planning while addressing social and environmental concerns.
 
As a business management student and future business leader, we will check the organizational strategies periodically, probably biannually. Moreover, some improved business strategies would develop, which could address the external and internal reasons for corruption.
