Kellie Classroom

Kellie McElhaney, executive director of the Center for Responsible Business at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business, was named a 2005 Faculty Pioneer for Institutional Impact by the biennial report - Beyond Grey Pinstripes.


The Beyond Grey Pinstripes' Faculty Pioneer Awards - released by World Resources Institute and the Aspen Institute - identify exceptional scholars and excellent teachers who are leading the way in incorporating social and environmental issues into their teaching and research.


By founding the Center in 2003, McElhaney was lauded by the panel of corporate judges as an agent of change who has placed corporate responsibility squarely as one of the core competencies and competitive advantages of the Haas School of Business.
