| ft executive education rankings: Executive Education after the Pandemic Santiago Iñiguez, Peter Lorange, 2021-11-29 Business education and executive development has been one of the most fascinating industries in the world and the fastest growing segment of higher education over the past decades. Today, it is experiencing change on a scale unprecedented since the foundation of the first business schools in the early 20th Century, both due to changes in the corporate environment and also due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic across all industries. In this context how do you create world-class educational and training institutions that can cope with those challenges, and be rigorous, vocationally relevant and suited to the corporate growing needs in this new fluid world? And how do you combine the very best of traditional academic values with new learning technologies to create an educational model that is fit to compete in the global economy, threatened today by populism, nationalism and economic turmoil? Yet, as daunting as it is, some institutions have already made significant progress in the journey. In this book Santiago Iñiguez de Onzoño, President of IE University, and Peter Lorange, former President of IMD, bring together contributions from leading figures from some of the world’s major universities. They share their experiences in addressing some of the challenges that the industry faces today, such as diversity and inclusion, employability, the role of AI and the advent of innovative new platforms. Packed with case studies of successful initiatives in business education and executive training, this is a truly visionary book. Authors anticipate future trends and share their in-depth knowledge of what it takes to build world-class educational providers – and their vision of higher education in the future. |
| ft executive education rankings: Heidegger and Executive Education Toby Thompson, 2017-09-13 Global corporations and the senior executives who oversee them have been subject to great criticism in recent times: not only do such corporations hold extreme concentrations of wealth, but they continue to sanction staggering pay inequalities between the haves and the have-nots. At the same time, university-based business schools are conducting programmes of executive education seemingly customised to sanction these same inequalities. Heidegger and Executive Education is a piece of critical philosophy that has been written from within the business school in order to examine how this sheltered process of educating in-role corporate executives operates. Thompson claims that executive education is based on a very simple premise: that an executive executes an order, and that executive education is an amelioration of that process. Thompson argues that the easiest way to conceive of executive education is to treat order and execution as cognates, as a single conceptual entity. Thus, he asks, if educating executives in line with the order-execution cognate involves swapping the boardroom for the classroom, and in keeping with the ‘critical’ tag, shouldn’t executive education be about questioning not only the execution, but also the dominant order? The author uses ‘time’ as the philosophical method by which one can undo the order-execution cognate, question the sanctity of the cognate and thereby halt the seemingly inexorable temporal sequence from order through to those orders becoming executed. This book uses Martin Heidegger’s exotic philosophy of time in order to mount a philosophical challenge to the temporal sequentiality of executive education. It will therefore be of great interest to academics, researchers and postgraduates who are interested in Heidegger, the philosophy of education and executive education. It should also be essential reading for those involved in training, developing, and educating corporate executives. |
| ft executive education rankings: Executive Education in Canadian Firms Bruce G. R. Fowler, 2010-03 A doctoral dissertation about Executive Education involving case study research, and comprising data from interviews with executives in Canada; information about nine universities in Canada, the USA and Europe; and the author's own experience of executive learning. This data and the resulting conclusions and recommendations that flow from them will be of useful interest to practising executives, consultants and business schools providing executive education. Bruce Fowler's dissertation tackles an important topic, the further education of executives in important Canadian companies, with a view to understanding better what actually goes on in programs designed to make executives better at what they do, keep them up to date, and encourage their imagination on the job. In this he succeeds admirably. His use of Alfred North Whitehead's educational philosophy as a background theoretical vantage point for his work is unusual and very wisely chosen. It enables him to organize his thoughts around a simple, clear and plausible view of the aims and dynamic structure of education at its best (Dr. Ian Winchester, University of Calgary). This dissertation's originality and contribution to the discipline lie in the adoption of Whitehead's philosophical framework as a lense through which to reach a synthesis about executive education, which when combined with the author's own business experience give the reader a unique perspective on the issues involved (Dr. H. Woodhouse, University of Saskatchewan). This research has the potential to make a valuable contribution to the field of executive and business education (Dr. N. Dudley, University of Calgary). |

| ft executive education rankings: The Quants Scott Patterson, 2011-01-25 With the immediacy of today’s NASDAQ close and the timeless power of a Greek tragedy, The Quants is at once a masterpiece of explanatory journalism, a gripping tale of ambition and hubris, and an ominous warning about Wall Street’s future. In March of 2006, four of the world’s richest men sipped champagne in an opulent New York hotel. They were preparing to compete in a poker tournament with million-dollar stakes, but those numbers meant nothing to them. They were accustomed to risking billions. On that night, these four men and their cohorts were the new kings of Wall Street. Muller, Griffin, Asness, and Weinstein were among the best and brightest of a new breed, the quants. Over the prior twenty years, this species of math whiz--technocrats who make billions not with gut calls or fundamental analysis but with formulas and high-speed computers--had usurped the testosterone-fueled, kill-or-be-killed risk-takers who’d long been the alpha males the world’s largest casino. The quants helped create a digitized money-trading machine that could shift billions around the globe with the click of a mouse. Few realized, though, that in creating this unprecedented machine, men like Muller, Griffin, Asness and Weinstein had sowed the seeds for history’s greatest financial disaster. Drawing on unprecedented access to these four number-crunching titans, The Quants tells the inside story of what they thought and felt in the days and weeks when they helplessly watched much of their net worth vaporize--and wondered just how their mind-bending formulas and genius-level IQ’s had led them so wrong, so fast. |
| ft executive education rankings: Winning at Following J. Norman Baldwin, 2017-03-20 Replete with engaging stories and written in a down-to-earth style, this book provides the first and only road map for finding success and happiness in life's most common yet underrated role—that of the follower. What kinds of behaviors and responses do most bosses want from those they lead? Which jobs seem desirable and exciting but present work conditions in which followers are likely to fail or be unhappy? What's the best way to communicate bad and good news to a superior? Winning at Following: Secrets to Success in Supporting Roles answers these questions and covers many more topics that are highly relevant to everyone, for those who report to others as well as for managers, directors, CEOs, or other acting leaders. Individuals who are satisfied in their roles as followers will discover information that helps them to optimize their success and fulfillment at work, while dissatisfied followers—anyone struggling as a follower and searching for directions for positive change—will find this book extremely valuable as a road map to greater meaning, success, and satisfaction at work and in life. Readers will gain the critical direction and tools for fulfillment in their roles as followers—in whatever capacity that may be—and understand what they need to do to please their superiors as well as to solve the common problems and challenges that followers face. The book also explains how individuals can identify their followership style and discover the types of organizations where they are most likely to thrive. The final chapter provides guidance on how to overcome common, serious problems that followers experience, such as micromanaging bosses, sexual harassment, unethical directives from superiors, and disrespectful colleagues. |

| ft executive education rankings: Academic Ethos Management AgataStachowicz-Stanusch, 2012-12-04 This topical and much needed book constitutes an important part of the debate on the integrity in an academic context as a sine qua non of responsible management education. Like you, we’ve all been listening to the highly publicized corporate scandals and instances of management misconduct that have eroded public faith. Simultaneously, management scholars and educators have begun to question the assumptions underlying the traditional management education, which in their view not only contributed to a recent moral crisis but has also failed to prepare students and executives for coping with the responsible leadership challenges and ethical dilemmas that face managers in contemporary corporations. This book discusses, with stimulating examples, how universities should bring alive their core values. Using case studies and examples from universities from all over the world, you’ll learn real practical advice and guidance, which explain in detail how you and other administrators and educators should discover, articulate, and institutionalize (implementation, securing and controlling by creating adequate policies, procedures process, etc.) university core values into academic daily activities and create a foundation for academy integrity. |

| ft executive education rankings: Ranking Business Schools Linda Wedlin, 2006-01-01 In her admirable book, Wedlin entangles what [business school] rankings really are and why they have become so important. . . The book contains plenty to interest the growing army of business school employees whose duties, at least in part, are concerned with boosting their institution s position in the rankings. Education and Training In times when the management education field is increasingly impacted by a proliferation of ranking exercises, this book is a timely and welcome contribution. Linda Wedlin unpacks for us the real meaning of the contemporary explosion of rankings. Rather than simple classification schemes and mechanisms, rankings are, she suggests, arenas where the field of business education is being created and re-created. They are the loci of boundary-work , whereby a field is progressively evolving and constituting itself. This is a convincing study relying on rich empirical data and carefully anchored in relevant theoretical debates. A must-read for all those, academics, students, policy-makers and education professionals, who want to understand the complex contemporary logics of higher education in management but also probably well beyond. Marie-Laure Djelic, ESSEC Business School, Paris, France League tables appear everywhere and have become important aspects of business school environments. Based on in-depth and creatively combined empirical studies, Linda Wedlin provides us with explanations and insights on the emergence and impact of such rankings. This book should be of great value for all those who seek to play the ranking game. It gives a fresh perspective on how classification mechanisms drive the emergence, boundary setting and change of organizational fields. Kerstin Sahlin-Andersson, Uppsala University, Sweden A fascinating study of the complex issues surrounding MBA rankings. Business schools really hate them but at times have to pretend to love them. Magazines and newspapers are really interested in their sales potential but have to make pretensions about their veracity. Linda Wedlin focuses on an area rich in hypocrisy and hype, but also one where there are real consequences: ranking furthered re-inforces the homogenising tendencies of MBAs. Anthony Hopwood, Saïd Business School, University of Oxford, UK This is a most fascinating topic, dealt with in a manner which is both serious and entertaining everyone in a business school would want to read it. Linda Wedlin s excellent research is presented with a no-nonsense approach if there is anything worth counting, she counts it, and then interprets it, no fuss. Exemplary! Barbara Czarniawska, Göteborg University, Sweden This engaging book offers a fresh perspective on the burgeoning field of European management education and its intense concern with rankings. Using a creative mix of well-crafted research tools, Wedlin deftly captures a professional field in transition as it both expands and develops shared standards. Walter W. Powell, Stanford University, US International comparisons and rankings of universities and business schools have proliferated in recent years. Ranking Business Schools provides a welcome analysis of this development and its implications for the field of management education, theorizing the role of classifications such as rankings in forming and structuring organizational fields. Focusing on the European experience with rankings and the subsequent response, the book illustrates how business schools use rankings to form identities and positions, and to draw boundaries for the field. By both creating and confirming belonging to a business school community and providing distinction within that group, rankings are important for defining an international field of management education organizations, constructing an international business school market, and constitute an arena for debating and establishing the boundaries of this field.

| ft executive education rankings: Global Voice #21 Council on Business & Society, Welcome to Global Voice magazine #21 – Out of the Tin Can This spring issue of the Council on Business & Society’s quarterly magazine contains 96 pages of research and opinion-based articles featured in two sections – Business, Society and Leadership & Management. We’re delighted to include a special double-page dedicated to two new CoBS Deans – Dean Lee Newman and Dean Yu Sakasume – having respectively taken up their functions at leading member institutions IE Business School, Spain, and Keio Business School, Japan. This issue’s Editorial also features a spotlight on the unique value case studies bring to the learning experience, co-authored by Richard McCracken, Director of The Case Centre, the world’s leading independent home of the case method, and Prof. Adrian Zicari of the Council on Business & Society. A wry and playful glance at business buzz words – and maybe even the state of our hectic modern society – is included in our double-page cartoon penned by Tom Gamble of the CoBS and illustrated by Matthieu Anziani of ESSEC Business School. And, as usual, hats off to the superb Global Voice graphic design by CoBS Head of Design Mélissa Guillou. Faculty, practitioner and student articles provide the bread and butter of this issue, with topics covering big data and customer value, how to manage remote working, designing mentorship programmes, TechForGood, greening up supply chains with circular economy strategy, non-financial social and environmental disclosure, and a spotlight on smart cities in Japan among others. And lastly, you may ask why this issue carries the subtitle Out of the Tin Can? The temptation is to say that it’s up to you to interpret it – for there are many interpretations possible! Some of these might point to the David Bowie classic, Space Oddity, and the fact that, at last, many of us in our societies are once again able to step out of the confinement imposed by the pandemic to breath freely again. Another interpretation, hand in hand with the snappy front cover image, might refer to Andy Warhol’s iconic pop art, consumerism or simply the tastiness of the contents the tin cans hold – a little like the insights in this magazine, if I dare say! And lastly, the shades of green to the cans give the message that our ‘consuming society’ might well contain a new – and more responsible, sustainable – taste to it. In any case, we hope you download this Global Voice #21 issue, open it up and consume its insights with immoderation! Enjoy your reading! |
| ft executive education rankings: Defining Management Lars Engwall, Matthias Kipping, Behlül Üsdiken, 2016-06-10 Defining Management charts the expansion of management as an idea and practice from a time when it was limited to churches and households to its current ubiquity, focusing in particular on the role of business schools, consultants, and business media in this process. How did an entire industry develop around business schools, consultants, and business media who are now widely considered the authorities regarding best management practice? This book shows how these actors – on their own and in interaction – became taken-for-granted and gained such definitional power over management and managers, expanded across the globe from often modest and not always respected origins, and impacted, and continue to impact businesses and, increasingly, the broader economic and social context. Building on extant and some new research, the book is unique in bringing together issues and actors that have been examined elsewhere separately. Any student or professional of management interested in the evolution of their field or the rise of business schools, consultants and business media will find this book both novel and thought-provoking. |

| ft executive education rankings: Strategic Leadership in the Business School Fernando Fragueiro, Howard Thomas, 2011-03-31 Business schools have come under fire in recent years with criticisms centring on their academic rigour and the relevance of business education to the 'real' world of management. Alongside this ongoing debate, increasing international competition and media rankings have led to a fierce struggle between business schools for positioning and differentiation. These are among the challenges that are faced by the Dean of the modern-day business school. In this book, Fernando Fragueiro and Howard Thomas show how Deans of business schools can meet such challenges in terms of strategic direction setting and the execution of their leadership role. Drawing on their invaluable experience as Deans of highly successful business schools, they present a series of case studies to show how leaders of five leading business schools (IMD, LBS, INSEAD, IAE and Warwick) have built effective strategies in the context of internal and external political pressures. |

| ft executive education rankings: The Value & Purpose of Management Education Eric Cornuel, Howard Thomas, Matthew Wood, 2022-03-02 Without a doubt, business schools have been a success story in higher education over the last 50 years (the period of EFMD’s existence). Even so, they have come under scrutiny, and attack, over their academic legitimacy and value proposition for business and society. In this book, drawn from a special issue of Global Focus, the EFMD has selected around 25 of the best, most thoughtful short papers published in Global Focus to examine the role and purpose of EFMD in the evolution of management education. Each of the chapters interpret current strategic debates about the evolution of business schools and their paradigms and also identify possible strategic options for handling uncertain, volatile futures. These papers can be broadly categorized into four consistent themes: the first theme is concerned with the purpose and value proposition of management education; the second theme focuses on a perceived need for new business models and how to design and build them; the third theme addresses the question of the impact of the business school on business and society given the increasingly academic pursuits of business schools and their often weak links to the business community – the so-called rigour/relevance dilemma; and the fourth theme concerns how to ‘map’ and design business school futures in an increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous crisis-oriented environment. This impressive collection of insights from business management leaders from across the globe is inspiring reading for higher education leaders, policy makers and business leaders seeking insight into the future of management education.

| ft executive education rankings: The Future of Management Education Stéphanie Dameron, Thomas Durand, 2017-11-15 This book discusses the challenges facing business schools and management education systems around the world. Based on documented descriptions of institutional and competitive dynamics in the ‘industry’ of management education, the authors show how management education is going through major changes such as new governance and business models, mergers and acquisitions, internationalisation of faculty and students coexisting with entrenchment in local markets, ever more needs for financial resources, development of distant and blended learning, and increasing pressure for research output to boost rankings. With concerns surrounding the sustainability of current trends in faculty salary inflation, social acceptability of higher fees, cost of distance learning and the risk of an academic-industry divide around knowledge produced by management research, The Future of Management Education develops an analysis of business models and discusses strategic implications for stakeholders. The second volume extends the discussion to a total of 23 countries to bring a genuinely global perspective and move away from the Euro-centric outlook. The countries covered in the second volume include China, Brazil, Russia, Singapore and France. |

| ft executive education rankings: The Palgrave Handbook of Fulfillment, Wellness, and Personal Growth at Work Joan Marques, 2023-10-02 This handbook discusses the role of sustainability, well-being and growth in engagement and purpose at work. When employees are dissatisfied with their job, they tend to be disengaged and less productive. Given the correlation between job satisfaction and job performance, organizations are looking for ways to increase employee engagement and productivity. Divided into three sections, this work opens with an examination of the concept of work, then discusses fulfillment of workforce members at mental, emotional, and spiritual levels. The next section on wellness explores drivers that advance interhuman approaches and trends, including meaning, leadership, happiness, resilience, and motivation. The last section focuses on personal and professional growth through the cultivation of an entrepreneurial mindset, but also justice, equity, and interactive flourishing through the promotion of positive trends or the conscious reduction of toxic ones. With contributions from a global cluster of scholars, this book offers readers broad perspectives on the potential nature of work as a gratifying vocation. It will serve as a horizon-expanding reference for those researching topics related to meaningful work and workplace fulfillment and thriving. |

| ft executive education rankings: The Business School in the Twenty-First Century Howard Thomas, Peter Lorange, Jagdish Sheth, 2013-07-18 Questions about the status, identity and legitimacy of business schools in the modern university system continue to stimulate debate amongst deans, educational policy makers and commentators. In this book, three world experts share their critical insights on management education and new business school models in the USA, Europe and Asia, on designing the business school of the future, and how to make it work. They look at how the business school is changing and focus in particular on emergent global challenges and innovations in curricula, professional roles, pedagogy, uses of technology and organisational delineations. Set within the context of a wider discussion about management as a profession, the authors provide a systematic, historical perspective, analysing major trends in business school models, and reviewing a wealth of current literature, to provide an informed and unique perspective that is firmly grounded in practical and experimental analysis. |
| ft executive education rankings: WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management Klaus Brockhoff, 2021-02-10 How can a personal desire to leave a lasting mark and criticism of the German university system lead to the establishment of an internationally renowned institution of higher education? Klaus Brockhoff provides the answer to this question by accurately tracing the detailed 35-year history of WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management – and highlighting all of its highs and lows in the process. Despite the challenges associated with founding and operating an institution of higher education, it was always and will continue to be the remarkable spirit of the donor, university administration members, employees as well as students, alumni and sponsors that make a decisive contribution to the overall success of WHU. At the same time, the history of WHU may also serve as an example for other universities wanting to position themselves successfully amid international competition that is becoming increasingly dynamic. Ever since the establishment of WHU, Professor Dr. Dr. h. c. Klaus Brockhoff has been monitoring the institution's evolution, served as its dean for five years and then went on to be part of the foundation's Executive Board for 13 years. His presentation relies on a comprehensive document analysis in addition to personal conversations with numerous contemporary witnesses and members of WHU. The Beisheim foundations in Switzerland and Germany remain committed to promoting the philanthropic legacy of Otto Beisheim, one of the co-founders of Metro. At the same time, both foundations are the primary sponsors of WHU, which has borne the name of the entrepreneur – Otto Beisheim School of Management – ever since he demonstrated such impressive personal commitment in 1993. The Beisheim foundations are the editors of this publication, which will also be published in German. |
| ft executive education rankings: Business and Society Danica Purg, Alenka Braček Lalić, Jennifer A. Pope, 2018-06-26 The world of business is constantly evolving and management education institutions will likely face a number of challenges in keeping up with these changes. While most books focus on the needs of management education institutions, this work addresses the needs of the corporate world in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Featuring an extensive research study spanning 11 countries, it offers a unique perspective on the business challenges and developmental needs of companies in emerging and recently emerged economies, and on the missing links between those needs and management education. Using both company-specific and country-level data, the book provides businesses and educators with rare insights and recommendations on strengthening existing partnerships (or establishing them anew) between management education institutions and the corporate sector in order to make management education relevant for the 21st century. The book argues that ‘relevance’ should take the center-stage of all higher education institutions in order to accomplish their third mission, namely service to society. This is especially important for management education institutions, whose mission is to mold future managers and leaders who can have a significant influence on economic success and the wellbeing of society. |
