Synopsis
Stuart Crainer and Des Dearlove dig deep into the hugely successful but still mysterious world of business schools and ask whether the dreams they inspire and careers they launch justify the millions of dollars companies and individuals spend. To paint a complete picture of a market which in twenty years has expanded from being a backwater of academia to a glamorous global industry woth billions of dollars the authors have assempled many hours of interviews with the people who run, use, work for and despise business schools.
Authors Crainer and Dearlove demonstrate that business schools as they stand are fatally flawed. Unless they do something about it and quick the institutions that rode the education bandwagon so effectively in the late twentieth century will be shunted into a siding at the start of the twenty-first.
