Shanghai Daily.com - Roundtable of CEIBS faculty

Click here for article of Shanghai Daily.com, 2008-6-18.

A THREE-HOUR deans' roundtable titled "The Future of Business Manage-ment Education in China and Around the World" was held at the China Europe International Business School Shanghai campus recently.

Hosted and moderated by Paul Danos, dean of the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth, the graduate school of management founded in 1900, these roundtables are part of Tuck's sustained international outreach program.

The frank discussion featured five deans from CEIBS in Shanghai, the Institute Empress in Spain, Fudan Management School, Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Business School.

"Globalization is changing business education just as surely as it has changed international business. We'd like to know how education is developing in the world and explore places that we want to learn about," Danos said.

"There is no government control on what education will become. No American model is going to be the majority model globally. It is necessary that new models are adapted. That's why I initiated the event."

Another interesting but ignore phenomena I interested in recently is why management education in Taiwan can't sustain/play a leading role in the Great China area?

For roundtables and forums like this one, most discussions and dialogs come from the leading latecomers in management education in the Great China area, such as CEIBS, CKGSB.

What happens to those incumbents in Taiwan, how and why can business schools in Taiwan lose/miss their roles in the globalizing management education market?

I like to explore and discuss this phenomena, especially while that is a real case happens in our "industry" - management education. If we could consider the catching up of latecomer industries in NICs and emerging markets, why can't we explore how those late come business schools win out from today's intensive competition in the world management education market?
