Executive Education is an Implementation of Supply Chain Management in Collegiate Schools of Business
提出高管教育能像供应链管理一样，整合商学院内外部部门，并连接学术研究与商业实践，呼吁相关研究投稿。
Supply chain management involves the integration of business processes among the functions within a firm as well as between a company and its customers and suppliers to improve performance. We argue that executive education, like supply chain management, can serve as an integrator not only among departments—both academic and nonacademic—within a business school but also across the university. More urgently needed, executive education can serve as an integrator between the scholarly research function of a collegiate school of business and the practice of management and business. We call for contributions on these topics in the form of Forward Thinking submissions, original research manuscripts, and proposals for both Thought Leadership series and Special Topics forums.
