Publisher's Synopsis
Throughout the country, MBA programs offer methodology that focuses on obtaining the necessary perspective for their students to remain relevant in the ever-changing business world. Now, educator Dr. Wallace Saunders applies the same rigorous reasoning to the modus operandi of MBA programs. In his informative and educational book, the seasoned professor puts forth a sound strategy to ensure continued value and differentiation on a global scale.
A Strategy for Academic Global Expansion: An Action Plan for Business Schools in a Global Age details Saunders's contention that, in order to continue to offer a competitive education, business schools must evolve from a domestic-only approach, and instead adopt a course of study that reflects the economic landscape of the world. He advocates more variety at all levels, including undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate.
Furthermore, programs will best address today's imperatives by incorporating opportunities for students to live in other cultures, and, by doing so, bring their international experience to the companies for which they work. With clarity and an informed perspective, Saunders details the means and the mindset to ensure an education in business that fosters an economic landscape that is productive, prosperous, and of the present.
