Reconnecting Business Schools with Business

About this book

Reconnecting Business Schools with Business is a provocative call to action for business schools worldwide. This groundbreaking book argues that traditional business schools have strayed from their core mission: to be professional schools that directly serve and advance the practice of business.

Drawing parallels to medical and architectural schools, the authors contend that business schools should be deeply intertwined with the professional world, fostering collaboration between academics and practitioners. They challenge the prevailing trend of mimicking academic social science disciplines, arguing that this has led to a disconnect between theory and practice. This book doesn't just critique; it offers a blueprint for transformation. It delves into the need for greater engagement with businesses, the integration of technology in education, and the crucial role of ethics and social responsibility. The book provides a framework for business schools to reclaim their relevance and prepare students for the complexities of the 21st century.

With contributions from over 20 of the leading business schools deans worldwide and a range of business and regulatory stakeholders, this book is essential reading for educators, administrators, business leaders and anyone concerned about the future of management education. Discover how to create a truly professional business school that empowers individuals and organisations to thrive in an ever-changing world.
