The Saïd Business School at Oxford, home of the Skoll Centre for Social Entrepreneurship, moved up a couple of slots in the FT’s 2010 Global MBA rankings. Its ranking at number 16 worldwide is a good showing for the still young business school. The report includes a series of predictions for 2010 for business education. Roger Martin, a Skoll Foundation board member and Dean of the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto, makes this wish:
“It would be wonderful if business education could shift its focus from analysis of narrowly defined problems to the creative tackling of the broad, messy problems that characterize our world – the solutions to which fuel society’s overall rate of progress.”
The creation of the Skoll Centre was certainly designed with this kind of thinking in mind. It’s great to see the Saïd Business School gain in international stature.
