Abstract
World-wide, the MBA has become one of the most popular academic qualifications. In recent years, doubts have been raised regarding worth of the MBA degree, at least in its present form. This article examines the broad trends shaping business education and recommends how MBA curricula might be redesigned to make students globally aware, and be effective in the midst of global competition. Our focus here is on meeting future essential business needs that today's schools fail to sufficiently address. Although MBA education is at a crossroads, change will not be easy, as MBA education represents a sizeable global ‘industry.’ We conclude by listing issues which may be examined to make the change feasible.
