Comments on: Can Business Schools Help Us Cope With Complexity? by A. Brown, F. Röösli http://www.druckerforum.org/blog/?p=597 Tue, 13 Sep 2016 09:04:01 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.5.4 By: Ashutosh Kar - KSOM http://www.druckerforum.org/blog/?p=597#comment-43136 Wed, 17 Dec 2014 11:49:55 +0000 http://www.druckerforum.org/blog/?p=597#comment-43136 Amazing article and yes, the points are actually valid. There’s a pressing need for change in the approach of top-notch schools. This is because of the changing times and increasing demands. Moreover, various dynamics like the employee-employer relationship have also come into play and this is effectively the reason why the MBA course fee has also increased perhaps.

thanks for sharing your ideas, which I support to great extent. If you want to make the business schools change I ask you and your community to work strongly on modifying the ranking and global accreditation measures and processes. These are often used as crucial incentives at business schools.
Respectfully,

I have no argument with Drucker’s comments concerning complexity in publically funded companies. And I believe the current and I expect the future short holding of owners of listed stock should reduce their influence with the business educators in favor of customers when the educators wakeup.

What I have little patience for is the continuance of academe, the financial press and financial institutions treating private business as miniature public companies. Private business leaders hold their stock very often for life. And moreover they have their skin in the game! Unlike their sister public company leaders they don’t guarantee their bank loans and they have family considerations that add measurably to their complexity and risk. A divorce of a controlling owner can wipeout their bank credit overnight. There are other singular risks (a total of eight)private entrepreneurs must confront for their business to stay healthy. Mind you they routinely are responsible for 50% of our GDP. I don’t see the advantage or the practicality of delaying a supreme effort to provide what is their due.

Respectfully,

Oliver W. Kuhn MSFS
