Business School Rankings for the 21st Century
The report, Business School Rankings for the 21st Century, suggests 20 actions to improve evaluation and ranking and encourage “a race to the top” in business education. Possible actions include:
- Eliminate entirely, or reduce the weight of, the salary differential measure
- Incorporate criteria that measure environmental, social, and/or SDG-linked factors within core curricula, research output, hiring, and special research clusters
- Award credit to schools that train students who work for low-paying but societally valuable organisations after graduation
The report draws on consultations with business schools, progressive businesses, rankings publications, accreditation agencies, and civil society organisations. Contributors include AABS (African Association of Business Schools), ABIS (The Academy of Business in Society), AMBA (Association of MBAs), Aon, the Coalition for Inclusive Capitalism, CSER (Centre for the Study of Existential Risk, University of Cambridge), EFMD (European Foundation for Management Development), GMAC (Graduate Management Admissions Council), GRLI (Globally Responsible Leadership Initiative), Oikos International and UN PRME (Principles for Responsible Management Education).
