Are mainstream business schools adapting courses that incorporate principles of consciousness and/or non-religious spirituality? Are those faculty members and schools pioneering these programs part of a larger trend or merely isolated pockets of individual initiative? Join these distinguished academics for a unique dialogue about existing and planned programs, many of which may still be very controversial among university administrations.

. Bill Sonnenschein, Communications Group Faculty, Haas Business School, University of California
