Modern MBAs (at least the one I'm doing) very much take care to focus on factors beyond solely profit. Examples are the concepts of business sustainability and the different levels of maturity organisations can occupy within that, and the 'triple bottom line' (taking into account impact on society and the environment, as well as economic impact).
Awareness of these factors can go from simply recognising them (lip service), to defining business performance by them (living and embracing them).

If someone doesn't pick these things growing up, a course in grad school isn't going to change their motivations.
