videos of lectures by faculty and visitors; including Ming Zeng; President; 
Yahoo China and Zhe Wei; President; B&Q China。 Working Papers (

recent conferences and speakers。 There are hundreds of hours of video and

Are panies Offshoring Innovation? The Emerging Global Race for 
Talent’; ‘A。。racting Skeptical Buyers’ and ‘The Neglected Importance of 
Leadership in Mergers and Acquisitions’; for example。 
Harvard University (United States) 
Unsurprisingly; Harvard has a range of free self…study resources; though 
there is no apparent link between them or central route to them。 Harvard 
Home (h。。p://athome。harvard。edu) has over 60 customized multimedia…rich 
programmes on topics such as ‘International Relations: New Approaches 
in a plex World’; ‘Improving Survey Research’ and ‘Entrepreneurial 
Women’。 
Harvard Business Publishing (hbsp。harvard。edu) offers some 
free web…only content; such as ‘HBR in Brief’ articles; HBR IdeaCasts; and 
video interviews from 50 lessons。 IdeaCasts (hbsp。harvard。edu/ 
b01/en/hbr/hbr_ideacast。jhtml) is an eclectic series of podcasts with titles 
282 Appendix 
such as ‘Negotiation Strategies for a Downturn’ and ‘Where Does Strategic 
Innovation e From?’ These are interesting enough to listen to around 
a more structured learning programme; but on their own would be of only 
modest value。 
Harvard Business School Entrepreneurs (hbs。edu/entrepreneurs) 
is a video archive providing insights from the school’s entrepreneurial munity 
– faculty; researchers and entrepreneurs; based on the Arthur Rock 
Center of Entrepreneurship。 The centre (hbs。edu/entrepreneurship/ 
resources。html) also provides in summary form a series of notes; articles 
and cases offering practical advice to entrepreneurs。 
Harvard Business School Working Knowledge (h。。p://hbswk。hbs。edu) 
is a forum for innovation in business practice; offering readers a first look 
at cu。。ing…edge thinking from the more than 200 HBS faculty and the 
opportunity both to influence and to use these concepts before they enter 
mainstream management practice。 Using this topic link (h。。p://hbswk。 
hbs。edu/topics) the areas covered are listed by subject – Business History; 
Marketing; Operations; Strategy; as well as a few dozen subsidiary topics。 
Harvard Business Review Answers (h。。p://harvardbusinessonline。 
hbsp。harvard。edu/hbsp/hbr/answers。jsp) are clustered around headings 
including: Change Management; Decision Making; Innovation; Leadership; 
Managing People; Managing Yourself; Marketing; Negotiation; Strategy 
and Execution。 
And Technology and Operations HBR provides links to selected articles 
that help with answers。 Not all the articles are free; but the summaries are 
o。。en sufficient and certainly enough to decide if the article is worth hunting 
down。 
INSEAD (France) 
This business school with two campuses in Asia (Singapore) and France 
(Fontainebleau) and two centres in the Middle East (Israel and Abu Dhabi) 
is well placed to offer a global perspective on business knowledge。 Its 
Knowledge website (h。。p://knowledge。insead。edu/home。cfm) has links 
to its Video Vault and Podcast series of lectures and talks by faculty and 
visitors。 You can watch Carlos Ghosn; CEO of Renault; Nissan discuss 
‘The transcultural leader’ or listen to Soumitra Du。。a; the Roland Berger 
Chaired Professor in Business and Technology; discuss his study showing 
that so。。ware assets represent enormous hidden value for the firm。 You 
can also read over 800 working papers (‘Cultural Myths and Leadership 
in Russia’ and ‘International Assignments as a Career Development Tool’ 
are examples); or 200 journal articles。 You have to register to access some 
information; but registration is free。
Appendix 283 
The Indian School of Business (India) 
The school runs in conjunction with Wharton the website India Knowledge 
(h。。p://knowledge。wharton。upenn。edu/india); which; as well as having its 
own distinctive media material; links back to the main Wharton database。 
Manchester Business School (UK) 
MBS (mbs。ac。uk/research/workingpapers/index。aspx) provides all 
its Working Papers; typically work by the school’s academics on research 
topics prior to publication in mainstream journals。 Specialist subjects 
such as ‘Managing petitive Advantage: Clustering in the Singapore 
Financial Centre’ are listed by year and main subject area – accounting; 
marketing; strategy; innovation; people; management and organization 
– alongside more general topics; ‘Managing Post…Acquisition Cultural 
Change: An Acquired pany’s Perspective’; for example。 
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology 
(United States) 
Through MIT OpenCourseWare (h。。p://ocw。mit。edu) the university provides 
free web…based publication of virtually all MIT course content; 
permanently updated; covering over 1;800 undergraduate and postgraduate 
programmes。 Launched in 2001; the initiative is supported by a number of 
charitable foundations and corporate sponsors; including Google Grants。 
MIT’s Sloan School of Management (h。。p://ocw。mit。edu/OcwWeb/Sloan… 
School…of…Management/index。htm) has full course materials; including 
lectures; notes and exams on over 100 business subjects in the following 
areas: 
。 accounting; 
。 munication; 
。 corporate strategy and policy; 
。 finance; 
。 health care management; 
。 history; environment and ethics; 
。 industrial relations and human resource management; 
。 information technologies; 
。 international management; 
。 law; 
。 leadership; 
。 managerial economics; 
。 marketing;
284 Appendix 
。 operations management; 
。 operations research/statistics; 
。 organizational studies; 
。 system dynamics; 
。 technology; innovation and entrepreneurship。 
Each MIT course published requires an investment of 10;000 to 15;000 
to pile course materials from faculty; ensure proper licensing for open 
sharing; and format materials for global distribution。 Courses with video 
content cost about twice as much。 MIT OpenCourseWare is a publication 
of the course materials that supports an MIT education fully; but it is 
not a degree…granting or credit…bearing initiative。 However; using MIT 
OpenCourseWare to support your own learning alongside the material in 
this book would provide the opportunity to learn everything that an MBA 
student from one of the top 10 business schools could learn。 
Yale University (United States) 
Yale University School of Management (h。。p://opa。yale。edu/netcasts。aspx) 
provides Netcasts in MP3 format in 15 different series for download and 
listening via iTunes and mon RSS Feed aggregators。 The State of Private 
Equity; Social Entrepreneurship in Singapore; and Corporate Leadership is 
Going Green are examples of the content provided by faculty from the Yale 
School of Management; distinguished visiting scholars and leaders from 
the world of business and management。 
Wharton University of Pennsylvania 
(United States) 
Knowledge Wharton (h。。p://knowledge。wharton。upenn。edu) is the business 
school’s way of delivering on a mitment to sharing its intellectual 
capital。 It provides free access online to over 1;500 articles and hundreds of 
podcast interviews with industry leaders and faculty as well as an analysis 
of current business trends。 Selling in China; Creating the Optimal Supply 
Chain; and The Importance of Procurement in a Global Environment are 
examples of the topics covered。 
THE WORLD’S BEST MANAGEMENT 
DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES 
You might think that the top business schools are the top places for management 
development; that is; shorter training programmes ranging from a 
Appendix 285 
few days to a few months in duration; but that would be a mistake。 According 
to the Financial Times’ three…year average ranking; while Wharton and 
Columbia are in the top three business schools for their MBAs; they rank 12th 
and 11th respectively for their management development work。 Oxford’s 
Said Business School es 19th in the MBA ranking but doesn’t feature at 
all in the management development ranking。 Ashridge is the opposite – it 
doesn’t get a position in the top league of MBAs but scores well otherwise; 
as does IAE Management and Business School; Argentina。 Some business 
schools – Cranfield; University of Michigan (Ross); for example; rank in 
much the same position in both top leagues。 The sources of information on 
these respective rankings are given later in this appendix。 
While you could go anywhere to get trained up; there are three advantages 
in going to a business school in the top rank for its management 
development work。 In the first place; you will be a。。ending one of the very 
few courses that are independently validated。 Sure; all the other providers 
have their success stories and their feedback sheets; but they don’t count 
for nearly as much as being externally assessed。 Second; the school’s star 
professors WILL teach you; that is always part of the deal。 The economics 
of running a business school usually mean that; d
