‘While business schools were heralded as the success story of 21st Century higher education, this book argues that a paradigm shift in governance is now required. Going beyond well-rehearsed criticisms of business schools and programmatic calls for incremental change, Ambrosini and colleagues argue that business school leaders must change the raison d’être of their organisations to focus on sustainability. The authors’ skilful marshalling of evidence and insight convinces of the need for transformation. Their deep appreciation of the institutional context surfaces many barriers to progress. For those who are brave enough to try to address these challenges, this book will provide an authoritative source of inspiration.’
