About Sprott
Welcome to the Sprott School of Business at Carleton University!
Businesses of tomorrow need to lead from the heart, with compassion, imagination and purpose. We know that a better world is one that is more equitable and just, more sustainable and caring.
Here at Sprott, future leaders gain the confidence to ask hard questions, to embrace diverse perspectives and be authentic in their leadership. For our students, alumni, faculty and staff, we are a community for life.
Vision 2025: Business for a Better World
In 2020, we released our five-year strategic plan, which is centred around five interconnected strategic principles to guide us as we navigate our future and strive to create meaningful impact on the world around us.
Our Aspiration
Through our scholarly work and engagement, we aim to cultivate the enterprising spirit of business in order to foster shared prosperity and advance equity and justice for all.
Our Calling
We create learning experiences and scholarship that harness the potential and opportunity for business to improve lives worldwide. In fulfilling this calling, we acknowledge and respect the Algonquin nation on whose traditional and unceded territory we are gathered and value our location in Ottawa, the thriving capital of a G7 country and a hub of Canadian social and technological innovation.
Our Values
- Compassion
We are an inclusive, caring community that ensures that students, faculty, staff, alumni and partners feel supported and valued. We demonstrate empathy in our interactions with one another and through our external engagement and scholarly work. - Imagination
We encourage bold ideas; we think creatively; we look beyond ourselves and the ‘way things are’ to foster innovation for the future. - Purpose
We are attuned to the community and the world around us and we are driven to contribute to the greater good.
