The stakeholders’ perspective on the international business school

Abstract

This article describes the contribution of the international business school to anchor ethical behavior maxims in the heads of the economic decision makers. Successful management training means that knowledge is not only obtained, but that the learning processes and the key qualifications which can be reached are located in the center of the globally aligned education. The management Andragogik – the science of knowledge transfer to adults – has proven itself as a goal‐oriented training form. Against this background the article presents the six constitutive elements of a successful international business school and discusses the role and the influence of the associated stakeholders: students and promoters, partner universities, members of the faculty and, last but not least, the enterprises of the economy in their triple role as idealistic sponsors of the international business school, as active members of the advisory board and as future employers of the graduates.
