Description
In this book, we examine the current model and the pressure points of business schools by considering the evolution of - and the various value chains that are associated with - business school offerings (including MBA, undergraduate, pre-experienced and executive programmes). We also offer insight on funding and value orientation, and the potential challenges these may raise for some schools. To highlight these challenges, we provide a strategic group framework for business schools and review the implications of future strategies for these groups.
Finally, after reviewing the current landscape of business school mergers, alliances and failures, we reflect on innovation considerations for the business school business model. Management education is changing, and business schools must be ready to re-evaluate their strategies for growth... and, in some cases, survival.
Reviews
From various locations along the academic-practitioner spectrum of business professional, Peters, Smith, and Thomas offer value-based perspectives on management education at all levels to explain and understand the existing business and teaching models that business schools currently use. More importantly, they say, they identify the need for ongoing innovation in these models to meet such challenges as technology-enabled learning, competition, and disruption. Among their topics are undergraduate and pre-experience programs, management development, business school revenue orientation, and value proposition and portfolio choices. -- Annotation (c)2018 * (protoview.com) *
