Save the Date for the 2012 BSC!

It's official - Save the date for the upcoming Tuck BSC!

The 10th Annual Business and Society Conference will be held Thursday, February 9 to Friday, February 10 at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH.

The theme for this year's conference, courtesy of the BSC marketing team, will be:

Trading Off: Impactful Business Strategy In Uncertain Times

Business norms are changing. Companies face increasingly complex tradeoffs between surviving quarter-to-quarter and being held accountable to the societies in which they operate. Meanwhile, the costs of healthcare, energy, and compliance are increasingly volatile, exacerbating the challenge of making these tradeoffs. Furthermore, in the wake of the global credit crisis, the call for business accountability has reached a fever pitch.

How should business leaders make these choices? How can we transform from a paradigm of singular responsible decisions to an underlying dynamic of sustainable business strategy?


Tuck’s 10th Annual Business & Society Conference will bring together students and business, government, nonprofit, and thought leaders to discuss how businesses should manage the realities of short-term tradeoffs while remaining focused on long-term growth.
