CEEMAN News 60 offers an interview with the new President of RABE, Prof. Sergey Myasoedov
An interview with Sergey Myasoedov by Milenko Gudic Businesses today are facing complex change.
This provides their leaders with increasingly greater challenges and opportunities. Consequently, the management education industry needs to respond effectively. In order to react to, if not anticipate, fast-changing customer needs, business schools need to change themselves as educational institutions and businesses in their own right.
The question is whether business schools, which lecture others on the necessity of creativity, innovation, and change, are ready to change themselves.
Another issue is to what extent – and how – these changes could be facilitated and synergized if learning partners were to pursue much closer collaboration. This includes cooperation between business schools and their respective corporate and learning partners as well as collaboration among business schools.
Management development associations are playing an important role in this respect but they could also be more proactive. In order to further explore these issues, we asked Sergey Myasoedov to share his thoughts and ideas. As a person who combines three different functions: Rector/Dean of Institute of Business Studies IBS-Moscow, First Vice-President of Russian Academy of Social Science of the President of Russian Federation (which is currently undergoing a major merge process), and new President of the Russian Association of Business Education (RABE), Prof Myasoedov is in position to provide a multifaceted perspective and comprehensive insights into the complex challenges and opportunities that modern management education, including in emerging environments, is facing today.
Following our strong belief that faculty development should be at the core of any change in business education and leadership development, we have asked Sergey Myasoedov to also touch upon some of the ideas on what kind of faculty business schools need in the times of turbulence and change that he exposed in his keynote address to the 6th IMTA Alumni Conference on Faculty Development: Learning from Best Practices, which was held in May in Moscow, Russia.
