Description: "How do we create the business school and managers of the future? This challenging question has been addressed by a number of researchers in recent times from the perspective of 'what needs to be changed?' - few if any have provided much in the way of 'how do we change things to meet the challenges of the future?'. Rethinking Business Schools draws upon extensive case study evidence from both Russell Group and Non-Russell Group University Business Schools in the UK to answer some of these questions from a European perspective and stimulate a wider debate between university leaders, business leaders and potential students as to what the business school of the future should really look like and the performance outcomes it should provide as we move through the twenty-first century and beyond"--
