Driving Change in Business Education

As the pace of change accelerates, today's business leaders must be adept at navigating an increasingly complex landscape of societal and economic issues. Emerging technologies like AI are revolutionizing the way we work and live, creating profound disruptions that have the potential to transform business schools fundamentally. Alongside these technological shifts, geopolitical changes are also reshaping the business and higher education environments, demanding a reevaluation of the roles business and education play in society.

Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½ Deans Conference will explore the urgent need for change and the critical role that business schools must play in preparing future leaders for an unpredictable world. This conversation will delve into the following themes:

  • Disruptive Technologies and Their Impact: How AI and other technologies are changing industries and the skills required for future business leaders.
  • Geopolitical Shifts: Understanding how global power dynamics affect business and higher education, and what this means for the curriculum and leadership training.
  • The Role of Business in Society: Rethinking how businesses can contribute to societal well-being and how this should be reflected in business education.
  • The Evolving Future of Work: Identifying the trends shaping the future workplace and how business schools can adapt to equip students with the necessary skills and mindset.

Join over 700 business school deans from around the globe to discuss these critical issues. Throughout the conference, attendees will gain invaluable insights and actionable strategies to rethink their institutions' roles, implement bold changes, and lead their schools and students into a future marked by innovation and resilience.
