School of Business Administration is pressing forward in driving educational excellence through the SDGs in Action: MG111 Management project — a concrete initiative to integrate the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into the teaching and learning process of the MG111 Management course. The aim is to equip students with both theoretical knowledge and the practical ability to apply management principles within real organizational and social contexts.
The project is grounded in the belief that management education truly delivers value only when students can connect theory to the challenges the world is facing — particularly sustainability issues that businesses globally are prioritizing with increasing urgency.
A key highlight of the project was an open forum featuring expert speakers from leading organizations, sharing first-hand experience as follows:
K.Warisa Thongkham, Brand Manager, Olymp, I.C.C. International Public Company Limited, delivered a lecture on the topic "Move Forward: Honest Sustainability" regarding Organic Cotton certified with Oeko-Tex Standard 100, which is free from harmful chemicals and environmentally friendly, with a focus on the use of 100% recycled materials in packaging production.
K.Pichayuth Vongpattanasin, General Manager, Tesla Thailand, and K. Papichaya Inthapuang, Senior Recruiter, Tesla Thailand, presented "Innovation with Impact: Tesla's AI-Powered Path to Sustainability," reflecting on how AI-driven innovation advances sustainability at a global organizational level.
K.Pawat Thongnuapaet, Senior Deputy Director, Professional Development Division, The Stock Exchange of Thailand, delivered a lecture on SDGs in Financial Markets.
K.Nipaporn Pradabmook, Country Logistics Manager, Shell Thailand Limited, presented "HR in Sustainability Management: A Paradigm of Energy Clusters," exploring the human resources dimension in steering an energy organization toward sustainability.
K.Kreangsak Tharasirananon, Vice President – Group Transport Commercials, SCGJWD Logistics Group, delivered "EV as Opportunity: Unlocking ROI, Incentives, and Scalable Business Models," inviting attendees to view electric vehicles as a tangible business opportunity.
K.Phonratch Wanichakul, Director, CEO Office, CPF Thailand, presented "CPF Driving Thailand," sharing CPF's approach to conducting business within a national sustainability framework.
The SDGs in Action project marks a significant step in preparing students to enter the workforce with genuine value — equipped with management skills that truly integrate sustainability thinking, and ready to meet the challenges of society and business in the future.
