This interdisciplinary course explores how workplaces can influence positive societal change. Students will examine how communication, data and information literacy, and intercultural effectiveness can be leveraged to apply socially responsible business practices, including working respectfully with Indigenous communities. Through applied workplace projects, students will use data to make informed decisions, practice building consensus among stakeholders and propose inclusive knowledge-sharing practices. Students will engage in iterative reflection to critically examine their experiences, evolving skills, and inform career-related decisions.
