ABSTRACT

A large number of business schools are facing the problem of faculty shortages while demand for management education continues to grow. Customised programmes for companies, are one particular area where the customer is demanding a more personalised learning journey, while the provider is struggling to meet these expectations which require the hiring of a considerable number of experienced faculty. Some short-term solutions, such as hiring part-time faculty academics from other disciplines, or retired business professionals, are open to business schools. The business school faculty itself must have a relevant international dimension that will transmit the benefits of global learning and experiences to its students. The development and use of international case studies from around the world is one way to create familiarity with a wide range of countries and cultures. The globalisation of management education has a number of implications.
