Gravy Training: Inside the World's Top Business Schools (Jossey Bass Business & Management Series) - Tapa dura

"We graduate over 90,000 MBAs each year in the United States alone! This valuable book can help improve the overall quality of those MBAs, as well as the schools that teach them?if they heed the message."(Warren Bennis, author of Organizing Genius and Why Leader's Can't Lead) "Crainer and Dearlove are two top writers, and one thing is certain: they know how to leave a reader breathless."(Tom Brown, president, Management General) "Gravy Training is a chillingly accurate resume of the critical issues facing international business schools now and in the future. The authors are two of the most highly experienced and well-informed writers about management and they present their case in a fluent, accessible style."(Leo Murray, dean, School of Management, Cranfield University)

This inside look at the lucrative world of top business schools reveals that they aren't always seats of new economic theory, strategic innovation and best management practices, but are sometimes cash cows or "gravy trains" for universities and faculty alike.
