Diversifying: The B-School Model

In a commentary, SMU Lee Kong Chian School of Business Dean Howard Thomas, together with his co-authors Peter Lorange and Jagdish Sheth, shared about their 2013 book The Business School in the 21st Century. In it, they detail promising innovations in business school curricula, which emphasise globalisation, leadership, integrative thinking, critical thinking, problem solving, and practical relevance, while helping students understand the underlying purpose of business. He examined the forces that have led to renewed calls for more radical approaches to business education and explored a few of the models in this article. Their hope is that, in the future, the global and competitive nature of management education will result in far more diversity in business school models. They also hope to see continued experimentation and innovation as business schools redefine themselves for the 21st century.
