Pedagogical conditions of training future managers for social interaction… as a specific type of social responsibility

Abstract

The mini-research deals with the development of pedagogical conditions of training managers for social responsibility as one of managers’ professional competence. The analysis of the scientific research in this field has shown that the term “social responsibility” is mostly conceptualized as an individual’s sense of internal obligation to the society, but manager’s social responsibility in business context is attributed by and to other people: company’s owners, consumers, partners, personnel, the public authorities, other public institutions. The existing research has identified “social responsibility” as a specific type of social interaction, a manager’s capacity to interact with other people and foresee the consequences of a social interaction, be liable for them.
