(Macro)Marketing for Sustainability and Society with Mark Peterson: Watch the Teaching Business for People and Planet Webinar
“There is also a dimension of intergenerational justice, making these decisions [sustainable business practices], so that our generation is not ripping off the future generations and their ability to live lives of high quality.” — Mark Peterson
In the latest episode of Teaching Business for People and Planet, SAGE Publishing’s webinar series on teaching the next generation of students while instilling a greater sense of purpose and care, author and marketing professor Mark Peterson is interviewed about (macro)marketing and sustainability.
The hour-long webinar embedded above:
- Defines “sustainable marketing.”
- Explores sustainability practices that benefit companies, consumers and stakeholders holistically.
- Dissects the role faculty can play to encourage their students’ interest when teaching sustainable marketing.
- Considers factors that might influence sustainable business practices in the future.
- Discusses why the sustainable approach can give businesses a competitive advantage in marketing.
- How to convince others about the legitimacy of sustainable business practices.
Peterson, a professor of sustainable business management at the University of Wyoming, also discusses the second edition of his textbook, Sustainable Marketing: A Holistic Approach, which features sustainability in marketing from a ‘macro’ and issues-based perspective through new pedagogic features. These features include “Mavericks who made it” cases and end-of-chapter questions, designed to suit a 12-week teaching term.
