GBSN is the hub of a worldwide network of business schools. GBSN is working to create a public-private partnership to
strengthen the skills of managers in emerging markets by expanding and
enhancing opportunities for management education and training in these
countries. » Read Business Schools as Tools
More than thirty leading global business schools are network members
and are contributing expertise to GBSN programs. Individually or in
teams drawn from several business schools, faculty of these schools are
working with emerging market business school deans and faculty on
specific capacity-building programs, sharing ideas and knowledge.
By joining together business schools around the world, GBSN aims to enhance the institutional capacity of
business schools in emerging markets so that they can provide a
stronger pool of management talent to local, regional, and
multinational firms and organizations.
“Africa
is where business is being redefined. What is happening here will actually
teach us a fair bit about what the nature of business will be over the next century.”
