The future of the MBA : designing the thinker of the future / Mihnea C. Moldoveanu and Roger L. Martin.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 127-133) and index.

The integrative thinker : a vision of the high-value decision maker in postmodern high capitalism -- Business school 2.0 : can the contemporary scientific-educational complex educate the manager of the future? -- Business school 3.0 : the design and development of integrative "cognitive-behavioral modules" for the thinker of the future.

"The Future of the MBA provides a sorely needed detailed and systematic review of the major contemporary debates on management education. At the same time, it makes a striking new proposal that will certainly have an impact in business schools: that managers need to develop a series of qualitative tacit skills which could be appropriately developed by integrative curricula brought from different disciplines, including sociology, philosophy, and other social sciences. Moldoveanu and Martin, both involved in the greatly respected integrative business education program at the Rotheman School of Management, provide a guide on how to design a reliable integrated program for management students. One of the main assets of the book is that it relies not just on speculative thinking, but on real life experience, and that it also includes case studies that will appeal to practicing managers. As an authoritative reference on MBA education, it will appeal to faculty and staff of business schools, as well as students in related fields like education and public policy."--Jacket.
