Sabancı University hosts Unilever President Paul Polman

“Today is the best day to start building a better world!”

Bringing the global world of business to its students with more than 700 conferences every year, Sabancı University hosted a lecture by Paul Polman, President and CEO of Unilever, one of the world’s largest fast-moving consumer goods companies.  Paul Polman gave a lecture titled “Creating a Better Future Everyday Made By You.”

The lecture was hosted by Sabancı University Board of Trustees Chair Güler Sabancı, President Professor Nihat Berker and Sabancı Business School Dean Professor Füsun Ülengin.

In her introductory remarks to almost 1000 university students, Professor Füsun Ülengin said that the growing interest in sustainable growth pleased everyone.  Ülengin noted that sustainability had become a strategic priority for the private sector in recent years, and that Unilever was a global leader in innovation for sustainability.

Füsun Ülengin said that by embracing a similar vision, Sabancı University topped the “University Innovation and Entrepreneurship Index” created by the Turkish Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology for the first time in 2012.  Ülengin noted that Sabancı University specifically invites global leaders on sustainability, informing the audience that Sabancı University is the first university signatory of the UN Global Compact in Turkey, that its MBA and Executive MBA are ranked in FT lists, and that the Sabancı Business School is a signatory of Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME).  Ülengin also noted that the Corporate Governance Forum under the Sabancı Business School implements the Turkish leg of the Carbon Disclosure Project and the Independent Female Directors Project.  Füsun Ülengin concluded her remarks by saying that the objective of Sabancı University was to contribute to the creation of the future and develop leaders for the future. 

Taking the floor, Paul Polman said, “Interdependent financial structures, emerging technologies and economic systems make management in a global world more complex.  A fast-changing, irresolute, complex and obscure future awaits us.  It is clear that the balance of the world has been disrupted, and we must all take the responsibility to work towards changing the world.”

Polman stressed the need to transition to a more fair and sustainable mode of capitalism in the light of the consequences of rapid globalization, and said that the secret to successful growth laid therein.

“The social and environmental issues we face are harder than ever.  Population is booming, the climate is changing at an increasing pace, and water resources are dwindling.  While one billion people suffer from hunger, another 1 billion people live in plenty, and over 1 billion children die every year of intestinal diseases” said Polman, and called for the youth to support sustainable life: 

“Improving the current situation is our responsibility as today’s leaders, whether in business, government or civil society, and this responsibility will be yours in the future as the next generation of leaders.  Today is the best day to start building a better world.  This is our duty and our responsibility.”

Sustainability is a business model that can both be profitable and have positive impact on nature and humanity
Explaining that Unilever strives to lead global change, Paul Polman continued, “However, this is not something that we can manage alone.  This is why collaboration with NGOs, governments, businesses and universities is of great importance to us.”

Polman said: “At Unilever, our corporate objective is to grow our business by a factor of two while halving our environmental footprint and increasing our positive social impact.  Our Sustainable Life Plan helped us to grow our business by 30% in the past 4 years while reducing energy and water consumption and waste.  Our health and hygiene campaigns touched the lives of a quarter of a billion people.  We now obtain one-third of our raw materials from sustainable sources.  We enabled 450.000 small-scale farmers to receive training in sustainable agriculture.  We have thus proven that sustainability is a winning business model that pays dividends to both the environment and humanity.”

The Sabancı Business School hosted an event featuring Bangladeshi professor of economics Muhammad Yunus, who won the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize with his work on microcredit.  Professor Muhammad Yunus gave a lecture titled “Economic Fluctuations and the Importance of Social Entrepreneurship” at the  Sabancı University campus in Tuzla on Thursday, December 15.  Professor Yunus was received by Sabancı University Board of Trustees Chair Güler Sabancı.

Following an opening speech by the Sabancı Business School Dean Professor Nakiye Boyacıgiller, Professor Muhammad Yunus gave details of the microcredit system established in Bangladesh.  Yunus explained that he personally extended financial guarantee to the people of the town close to his campus in Bangladesh, which helped individuals in financial difficulty to become a part of the banking system.  Yunus said that the system was being utilized in 80,000 villages in Bangladesh and an aggregate of 1.5 billion dollars of credit has been allocated so far, with a successful repayment rate of 99.3%.  Muhammad Yunus added that a similar system was being implemented in Turkey.

Muhammad Yunus said that, in contrast to philanthropy,  money spent in social enterprises brought increasing returns, and added, “Initiatives with a public benefit are considered social enterprises.  These may be done by individuals or partnerships.  Social entrepreneurship can create a new business that earns profit while also helping the people.”

Muhammad Yunus concluded by saying, “The young population today is luckier because they have access to advanced technologies.  They can create opportunities that will engage their potential.  They can access all the information they need.  This empowers them in a way that previous generations did not have.”

Güler Sabancı thanked Muhammad Yunus for his speech, and said, “At Sabancı University, we encourage our students towards social entrepreneurship, and we value such efforts greatly.”  Güler Sabancı presented Muhammad Yunus with a commemorative brick of Sabancı University.

"Global Leaders in Management" series: The Sabancı Business School hosted an event with The Coca-Cola Company CEO Muhtar Kent as the keynote speaker​

Held on Monday, October 3rd, the conference was hosted by Sabancı Business School  Dean, Professor Nakiye Boyacıgiller.  Also attending were Sabancı University Board of Trustees Chair Güler Sabancı and President Professor Nihat Berker.

Muhtar Kent’s discussion points included ‘globalization and the private sector’, ‘the changing role of the private sector’, ‘new rules in competition’, and ‘the significance of globalization trends for the youth and its possible impact on their future plans’.  Arguing that the world needed a strong engine for growth right now, Kent said that if China appears to be slowing, that did not bode well for a quick global recovery.  Kent added that North America and Western Europe were in for a long and mixed recovery, this being less so for Eastern Europe and for many of the “crisis unaware” in parts of Latin America, Africa, and Central and South Asia.Muhtar Kent continued, “Whether it's a financial crisis, or a geopolitical crisis, or an energy crisis, or an environmental crisis - turbulence will be the new norm throughout this decade. And that's not necessarily a bad thing, either. I believe that for every headwind we confront there’s an equally powerful tailwind to be ridden.  The trick is finding it.”

Muhtar Kent emphasized that the world was seeing the rise of both the most sophisticated and engaged youth generation, and the most affluent and mobile over-40 population the world has ever known.

Muhtar Kent also discussed Coca-Cola’s new initiatives for gender equality and the empowerment of women, and said, “Two weeks ago we announced a global partnership with U.N. Women to help advance this effort to provide new business training, mentoring and access to financial resources to women-owned businesses across our Coca-Cola value chain. We believe this initiative will help create not only stronger suppliers and retailers for Coca-Cola, but stronger communities everywhere we operate.”

Muhtar Kent concluded his lecture by saying, “As the world desperately looks for ways to restart and reset the global economy, the solution lies right in front of us.  Gender equality is simply ‘smart economics’. Sabancı University, of course, knows this better than most and it’s the reason why you've established a Gender and Women’s Study Forum, and it’s why 40 percent of the students here are women.”
The lecture was followed by questions from the floor.

At the end of the conference, Sabancı University Board of Trustees Chair Güler Sabancı presented Muhtar Kent a commemorative brick as a symbol of the university.

Sabancı Üniversitesi Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi CEEMAN Konferansı’na ev sahipliği yaptı. Yönetimin geleceği Sabancı Üniversitesi’nde tartışıldı.

Sabancı Üniversitesi Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi,  uluslararası akademik dünya ile iş dünyasını bir araya getiren CEEMAN Konferansı’na ev sahipliği yaptı. Bu yıl 15.si düzenlenen CEEMAN konferansında “Globalizasyon ve Yönetim Bilimlerine Etkileri” ele alındı.

27-29 Eylül tarihleri arasında, Orta ve Doğu Avrupa üniversiteleri ve yönetim bilimleri alanında faaliyet gösteren kuruluşlardan yaklaşık 150 rektör ve dekanı ilk kez İstanbul’da buluşturan konferansın ünlü konuşmacıları arasında; Blue Ocean Stratejisi’nin yaratıcısı Prof. Chan Kim, The Coca Cola Company İcra Başkanı Muhtar Kent ve Adizes Metodolojisi’nin kurucusu, yönetim gurusu Dr. Ichak Adizes de yer aldı.

Doğu ve Orta Avrupa’daki yönetim bilimleri disiplininin geliştirilmesi amacıyla 1993 yılında uluslararası bir ortaklık yapısıyla kurulan ve Avrupa’dan Latin Amerika’ya toplam 42 ülkeden 170 kurum ve kuruluşu tek bir çatı altında toplayan CEEMAN (Central and East European Management Development Association), 15. yıl konferansı için İstanbul’u seçti.

27-29 Eylül 2007 tarihleri arasında Sabancı Üniversitesi Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi’nin ev sahipliğinde gerçekleştirilecek kongreye Orta ve Doğu Avrupa’nın önde gelen üniversitelerinin rektörleri ve yönetim bilimleri fakülteleri dekanları katıldı. 

Prof. Chan Kim, Muhtar Kent ve Dr. Ichak Adizes konuşmacı olarak geldi. 

Ana teması “Globalizasyon ve Yönetim Bilimlerine Etkileri” olan konferans, global iş çevrelerinden ve yönetim bilimleri disiplininden önemli uzmanları ağırladı. Konferansa son yıllarda iş dünyasının gündemine yerleşen “Mavi Okyanus Stratejisi”nin (Blue Ocean Strategy) yaratıcılarından, aynı zamanda dünyaca ünlü yönetim bilimleri enstitüsü INSEAD’ın eğitim kadrosunda yer alan Prof. Chan Kim,  The Coca Cola Company İcra Başkanı Muhtar Kent ve kendi adıyla yarattığı yönetim metodolojisiyle yüzyılın önemli danışmanlarından biri olarak gösterilen, 100 Guru Listesi’nde yer alan Dr. Ichak Adizes de konuk konuşmacı olarak katıldı.

“Türkiye artık bölgesel değil, küresel bir oyuncu”

CEEMAN Başkanı Danica Purg, küreselleşen dünya coğrafyasında Türkiye’nin her zamankinden daha önemli bir yere sahip olduğunu belirterek CEEMAN 15. Yıl Konferansı’nın İstanbul’da gerçekleştirilmesinin önemli bir fırsat olarak görülmesi gerektiğini söyledi. Purg sözlerine şöyle devam etti: “ Türkiye, ekonomideki hızlı yükselişi ve yurtdışındaki büyüme hamleleri ile sadece bölgesel değil, küresel bir oyuncu olarak da önemli bir yere sahip. Ekonomik gelişim ve sosyal dönüşüm açısından Türkiye, Orta ve Doğu Avrupa ülkeleriyle benzer gelişmeler yaşayan bir örnek olarak karşımızda duruyor. Bu nedenle bu toplantının Türkiye’de yapılması daha farklı bir boyut ve önem kazanıyor”.

Eğitimde ortak sorunlar ve çözümler masaya yatırıldı 

Sabancı Üniversitesi Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi Dekanı Prof. Nakiye Avdan Boyacıgiller ise bu konferansın Türkiye ve iş dünyası açısından önemini şu sözlerle ifade etti:  “CEEMAN, Orta ve Doğu Avrupa’daki öğretim üyelerini bir araya getirerek çok önemli bir iş yapıyor. Çünkü bu ortak coğrafyada, benzer kültürleri paylaşıyoruz ve eğitimimizle ilgili de ortak sorunlarımız var. CEEMAN bu ortak sorunları tartışmak ve olası çözümler üretmek için harikulade bir platform.  Buna ek olarak yönetim bilimleri eğitimi tek ülkeden tek kültürden gelen öğrenci ve öğretim üyeleri ile istenilen düzeye ulaşamaz. Öğrenci ve öğretim üyesi değişimi şarttır. Bu bağlamda gerekli bağlantıların yapılması ve üniversitelerin en üst düzeyde birbirlerini tanımaları için CEEMAN büyük bir fırsat. Böyle bir kongrenin ülkemizde düzenlenmesi de ayrıca ülkemizin tanıtımı açısından büyük önem arz ediyor”.

CEEMAN 15. Yıl Konferansı, Evian Group’un Kurucu Direktörü ve aynı zamanda İsviçre Lozan’daki IMD Business School’un öğretim üyesi Jean-Pierre Lehmann, Polonya İşveren Konfederasyonu Başkanı Henryka Bochniarz gibi konuşmacıları da ağırladı. CEEMAN Konferansı ile giderek daha rekabetçi hale gelen dünyada “liderlik vasıflarının” yanı sıra, yönetim bilimleri alanında eğitim veren kurumların lider yetiştirme becerilerinin artırılmasına yönelik fikirler tartışmaya açıldı.
