Abstract This study aims to offer a diagnostic of the "state-of-the-art" practices being reported throughout the Sharing Information Process (SIP) by the Champions Group, a group of schools that are signatories of the Principles of Responsible Management Education (PRME, a United Nations Global Compact initiative), committed to spearheading transformational change toward more socially and environmentally responsible leadership. The study also suggests an analytical model - based on qualitative research and documentary analysis of over 29 institutional reports from 18 business schools - to define the study sample, investigate data, identify patterns, organise and codify a large amount of information within all reports searched. The analytical model represents a framework in which the result is a collection of practices being reported, functioning as a useful guide and practical reference for higher educational institutions - signatory or otherwise - when promoting or advancing transformational change in their business model. The framework could also be valuable for Graduate Schools - or even Primary Schools to High Schools - considering the urgency of the 2030 Agenda, especially its 4.7 target, referred to as "An education for SD and global citizenship".
