Inside the World of Business Schools.
This is the first book to get inside the hugely successful but still mysterious world of business schools to ask whether the dreams they inspire and the careers they launch justify the millions of dollars companies and individuals invest in them. Do business schools really offer value for money?
Crainer and Dearlove have assembled many hours of interviews with the people who run, use, work for and despise business schools 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 worth billions of dollars. They conclusively demonstrate that business schools as they stand are fatally flawed.
This book is essential reading for anyone who is planning to go to business school, or who forks out tens of thousands to send their employees to one.
