MBAs Are Dead

NY Times:
There is a rising reaction against management theory, according to The Economist. A new book by the management expert Gary Hamel, “The Future of Management,” notes that several well-known executives of hot companies — among them, Sergey Brin and Larry Page of Google and John P. Mackey of Whole Foods Market — did not go to business school.
More to the point, another new book, by the Harvard Business School professor Rakesh Khurana, “charts how management science declined from a serious intellectual endeavour to a slapdash set of potted theories.”
