- Abstract
Purpose: Capturing the added value for public universities resulting from adopting a humanistic approach in the implementation of the university social responsibility (USR). Design/methodology/approach: The objectives will be achieved through desk research analysis. In this way, the previous approaches of the humanistic approach (HA) will be identified, which will then be creatively translated into benefits for the university arising from the implementation of individual elements of HA. Findings: It seems that the humanistic approach not only aligns with the principles of the CSR concept but also closely reflects the foundations of university functioning. At the same time, there is a need for a precise model of the humanistic approach, which will aid in future practical implications, not only in the context of CSR but also USR. Research limitations/implications: In the future, conducting research at universities would be valuable, allowing for the verification of the proposed benefits, as well as enabling an examination of the impact of the HA on university management. Practical implications: Implementing the principles of the humanistic approach allows for the strengthening of the organizational personnel. Recognizing the human component also aligns with the formation of the university community, which should be the foundation of the institution. Social implications: Adopting the principles of the humanistic approach will have a profound impact on the functioning of universities and their position in society, which will be strong only when the university is strong within its community. Originality/value: This article, for the first time, systematically attempts to relate the humanistic approach to the university. This perspective will serve as a guide for university administrators as well as researchers dealing with issues of USR and HA.
