    Dear Colleagues,

    I'd like to announce Giselle Weybrecht's new blog, as described below and
    accessed at the link: http://primetime.unprme.org/. I used Giselle's book,
    "The Sustainable MBA" in a sustainable strategy course I designed and we've
    been in contact since.

    What is PRiMEtime?

    PRiMEtime brings together and shares best practices on how to mainstream
    sustainability and responsible leadership into management education
    globally. The blog will serve as a platform to share and discuss
    inspirational activities that promote the development of responsible
    leaders. The blog will feature examples from around the world and will
    include both success stories and lessons learned. Posts will cover a wide
    variety of activities, ranging from efforts to embed sustainability and
    responsible leadership into curricula, student led initiatives, and the
    outcomes of partnerships with business, NGOs and other schools. PRiMEtime is
    a collaboration between the UN Global Compact, the Principles for
    Responsible Management Education and Giselle Weybrecht, the author of The
    Sustainable MBA The Managers Guide to Green Business.

    While I am introducing Giselle's sustainability blog, I would also like to
    mention the AoM ONE division blog to which I regularly contribute. I
    encourage you to leave your comments at the ONE blog as well:
    http://oneaomonline.blogspot.com/. Some professors have been suggesting to
    their students that they take note of it and perhaps you will too. Send them
    the link! The ONE blog covers a variety of topics of interest relating to
    studies in Organizations and the Natural Environment.

    Regards,
