The Masters of Business Administration (MBA), the best-known business school label, is an introduction to general management. The traditional MBA, Harvard style, has remained largely unaltered since the 1950s, and seeks to provide a thorough knowledge of business functions through the case study — a feature incidentally borrowed from law school.
In a similar fashion to law school, the graduate management programs train students to think in a particular way, ultimately teaching future business leaders how to analyze problems quickly and come up with concise solutions. However, business comprises more than merely manipulating numbers or sourcing rational answers to problems. Today, both companies and schools are increasingly aware that business is a human activity; it is ultimately by and about people.
John Quelch is a business school insider who detects the limitations of the traditional syllabus. According to Quelch, leadership is an area that schools have not fully addressed. "The basic technical training managers need is more widespread. But leadership skills are in short supply. This could become a major constraint on the speed with which multinational companies can expand," he says. Leadership is notoriously hard to teach, but programs do have the capacity to provide a grounding in non-business areas and personal growth.
"You want to produce graduates who will be effective. To do this, they need to know their own skills. Our job is not only to cram finance down their throats, but help develop them as people," explains Leo Murray, director of Cranfield School of Management in the U. K. Cranfield uses philosophy in its core, which since 1997 has offered an evening lecture series on both Aristotelian and present day thinking. Self awareness is crucial at the school, which will grant the theme even more space.
"These issues help people think," states Murray. The better you understand yourself, goes the logic, the better you can manage others. The Said Business School (SBS) at Oxford University champions a more integrated approach. John Kay, SBS director, is keen to leverage the intellectual might of the wider university. Access to faculty from other disciplines including philosophy, politics and economics, he believes, could give SBS an edge over other school.
These are surely steps in the right direction. But there is more. In future, developing a gut instinct for business may be as important as understanding the figures. To create an MBA to meet the challenges of the 21st century business schools will have to try harder. [br] It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
选项
A、traditional MBA programs stress the candidates’ working experience
B、in today’s business world technical training alone is far from adequate for business leaders
C、leadership can never be taught in MBA programs
D、a gut instinct for business is unreliable in decision making
答案
B
解析
推理判断题。本题选项A是不相关的干扰项,文中并未提及MBA教育与工作经验的关系。选项C言过其词,以第三段最后一句为依据:领导才能不好教,但是这样的课程在非商业领域和个人成长方面是有能力提供一些基础的,即可排除。文中最后一段中肯定了胆识(gut instinct)的重要性,故D 为错误答案。从第二段however转折处可知,仅仅是技术是不够的。
