Understanding and Changing Your Management Style

the long version

"In Gravy Training, two hard-hitting business writers present the controversial results of their own investigation into the world's most prestigious business schools. Are such elite centers of management education as Columbia, Stanford, and Wharton really crucibles of cutting-edge theory and expertise? Or are they merely cash cows for the universities and their faculties?"--BOOK JACKET. "Crainer and Dearlove conducted extensive research and interviewed hundreds of administrators and faculty members to find out if business schools deliver on their promises and discern what their futures may hold. Their page-turning examination of the B-school phenomenon contains provocative stories and startling facts about the incredible speaking and consulting fees charged by B-school stars. They delve into the power networks that link alumni, show how academic affiliations affect the way top CEOs do their jobs, and reveal how Business Week and other media rankings drive business school curricula."--BOOK JACKET. "But Gravy Training is more than an expose. It proposes forty reforms that can return business schools to their original goal of training effective management professionals."--BOOK JACKET.
