Executive Education and the Managerial Revolution: The Birth of Executive Education at Harvard Business School
本文研究了哈佛商学院在1920年代中期至1945年间如何发展非学位高管教育项目，最终推出全球典范的Advanced Management Program，以增强商学院对职业经理人的影响。
The managerial revolution drove the rise of business schools in the United States and business schools contributed by graduating professional managers. Before World War II, however, the effect of an MBA degree was modest, causing great concern to leading business schools. Harvard Business School—in order to increase this impact—began in the mid-1920s to develop nondegree programs for potential top executives. In 1945, by drawing on the experiences of certain short-lived programs and the extraordinary situation during the war, Harvard Business School launched its Advanced Management Program, which became a global role model for executive education.
