Campus & Community

Community Values

At Harvard Business School we believe that leadership and values are inseparable. The teaching of ethics here is explicit, not implicit, and our community values of mutual respect, honesty and integrity, and personal accountability support the HBS learning environment and are at the heart of a School-wide aspiration: to make HBS a model of the highest standards essential to responsible leadership in the modern business world.

School Policies

Our Community Values and the policies that support them embody our aspiration to be a model of leadership, honor, and integrity, and our commitment to truth and excellence. We strive to create an environment of trust, respect, and free expression and inquiry.

Acknowledgement of Land & People

Harvard Business School is located on the traditional and ancestral land of the Massachusett, the original inhabitants of what is now known as Boston and Cambridge. We pay respect to the people of the Massachusett Tribe, past and present, and honor the land itself which remains sacred to the Massachusett People.
