Abstract:

Business education offered either by business schools, corporate learning centers, or executive development centers, has become a hotly debated issue among the management of business schools and corporations. In particular, this study finds a daunting challenge facing business schools, which is to justify the relevance of the business education curricula considering the fact that the business environment is global and dynamic. Business education must produce managers with qualities such as relationship management, personal effectiveness and professional acumen ship. Therefore, this paper proposes an urgent need for a cross regional research in order to explore regional needs for business educations and a balanced approach to educating future business managers.
