Abstract

Using the analogy of expensive trains heading for a crash, asserts that business schools must learn to do what they teach – i.e. become learning organizations – if they are to stay relevant in a rapidly changing world. Offers advice to schools on how to change, describing learning competences which must be acquired, and illustrates this by using the Weatherhead School of Management′s approach to executive learning.
