Having taught at five business schools over several decades and served as Dean of two, I have come to a conclusion: The educational institutions where our future business leaders are being trained must be recalibrated and transformed dramatically. Business education today is anachronistic in both how it is conducted and what its content focuses on. As originally conceived, they were institutions of practical education. We must educate a new generation of renaissance leaders.

Wall Street's " financial innovations " of recent years seem to have given creativity a bad name. Of course, by itself, sheer novelty doesn't make something creative.

The value of your management education derives partly from the skills it helps you develop and partly from the school’s reputation. High-value management education prepares leaders to navigate the most complex challenges organizations face. But while many business leaders have embraced the importance of increasing gender equity and are investing in significant efforts to reduce internal obstacles to progress, it’s surprising to find leaders in management education who are not.

Extroverts who “think out loud” and Westerners who have grown up in educational environments where classroom participation is required, usually thrive in brainstorming sessions. And usually the first idea comes from the most assertive and often the most powerful participant in the group. So when you’re asking participants from more collectivist cultures to speak up with a unique idea, you may be asking them to do something that is very counter-intuitive.
