简介:
"Business Schools Face Test of Faith." "Is It Time to Retrain B-Schools?" As these headlines make clear, business education is at a major crossroads. For decades, MBA graduates from top-tier schools set the standard for cutting-edge business knowledge and skills. Now the business world has changed, say the authors of Rethinking the MBA, and MBA programs must change with it. Increasingly, managers and recruiters are questioning conventional business education. Their concerns? Among other things, MBA programs aren't giving students the heightened cultural awareness and global perspectives they need. Newly minted MBAs lack essential leadership skills. Creative and critical thinking demand far more attention. In this compelling and authoritative new book, the authors: · Document a rising chorus of concerns about business schools gleaned from extensive interviews with deans and executives, and from a detailed analysis of current curricula and emerging trends in graduate business education · Provide case studies showing how leading MBA programs have begun reinventing themselves for the better · Offer concrete ideas for how business schools can surmount the challenges that come with reinvention, including securing faculty with new skills and experimenting with new pedagogies Rich with examples and thoroughly researched, Rethinking the MBA reveals why and how business schools must define a better pathway for the future. 数十年来,MBA毕业生几乎毫无悬念地可以在最优秀的企业谋到高薪工作。然而世易时移,MBA学位带来的优越地位已经受到撼动。世界经济在迅速转型,学术界和企业界对商学教育的质疑甚嚣尘上,全球金融危机爆发……这些因素都把工商管理教育推到了一个关键的十字路口。面对这些挑战,商学院的应对措施将决定其未来的角色及其工商管理教育是否把握时代脉搏,密切联系实践。 在这本具有标志性意义的书中,哈佛商学院三位学者研究了影响工商管理教育的三个趋势:项目形式日趋多样化;越来越多的雇主开始质疑MBA学位的价值;以及由此所导致的入学情况的变化。 作者展开了广泛的调研,访谈了数十位商学院院长和企业高管,并且详细分析了11个顶尖MBA项目。以此为基础,《MBA教育再思考》提出了8个目前亟待满足的教学需求,分析指出每个需求都对应着一个机遇,商学院可以据此改革教学内容和教学方式。 作者对哈佛商学院、欧洲工商管理学院和斯坦福大学商学院等一流商学院展开了深入细致的案例研究,总结了这些学院为应对挑战而推出的多种举措,包括大幅修订课程方案、加强课程的个性化、运用体验式教学将知识与实践紧密结合起来等。作者还进一步探讨了商学院应如何借鉴这些措施,结合自身特色设计出合适的方案。
