Special Session Executive Education - 8 March |
The special session Executive Education will be held on March 8 from 2 until 4 pm in ALMA 12.
Beyond journals: executive education matters
Publicly owned universities with a large business education faculty have often paid little attention to executive education. Executive education has largely been the domain of privately owned institutions, while publicly owned universities either ignored it altogether or managed it poorly. Instead, public university administrators have typically incentivised research output over other activities. Lacking success stories, young faculty have often seen executive education as a distraction from their precious research time or at best as an erratic and intellectually less inspiring source of institutional and personal income.
Winfried Ruigrok (NL) is a Professor of International Management and the Dean of the Executive School of Management, Technology and Law, University of St.Gallen (Switzerland).
