Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Course Objectives
Marketing decisions involve needs, goals, and interests of various exchange partners as well as stake holders in the organization itself and its environment. The Special Topic “Responsible Marketing” shall widen your view on marketing decisions by including societal (i.e., social and ecologic) aspects of producing, marketing, buying, and consuming products. Participants in the course will enhance their awareness of the diverse societal implications associated with marketing decisions. They will cultivate a broader perspective and a contextual understanding of consumer behavior and marketing, enabling them to make decisions in the marketing context that not only contribute to corporate goals, but also promote consumer well-being. This course (Responsible Marketing 1) is one of two sequential course components. It is scheduled over a brief period to facilitate concentrated engagement with literature and active class discussions centered around the subject matter.

Course Structure & Content
Commencing with the concepts of 'value creation' and 'consumer need satisfaction,' this course delves into the role that marketers and companies must embrace in promoting social responsibility. The exploration systematically encompasses the social, ecological, and economic dimensions of the entire lifecycle of goods and services, including disposal, adopting a circular economy perspective. We will interconnect the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) viewpoint with the latest advancements in Transformative Marketing, focusing on core values upheld by consumers in Western societies such as fairness, diversity, and inclusion. The discussions will elucidate how marketers can contribute to society by fostering sustainable consumption, ensuring long-term profitability. (Note: Course 2 will subsequently complement this content by further elaborating on societal welfare and consumer well-being.)
