| Abstract: | This position paper endorsed by a diverse range of people - e.g. executives,..., professors,...,artists, students - argues there is a need for balancing btw. the "professional approach" and the "academic approach" within management schools, whose mission is to train managers capable of acting, as opposed to turning out academics spending their entire career within the walls of the university. The paper authors are inspired by the training approach used in art schools asking: What would one think of a school that purported to train artists by merely dispensing formal lectures and communicating knowledge? Yet this is exactly what often occurs in management schools. When it comes to the training of artists and managers, intellectualism becomes a perversion of genuine intellectual effort. |
