Plenary Session: Leading in a Tuburlent World

Kotler (2009) states that the most difficult challenges for leaders are turbulent environment and standing changes. Together with turbulence and change is closely connected innovation and flexibility. Hamel (2008) states that the changes in management style are not as quick as the changes in the environment. Therefore, given the turbulence of the contemporary environment, it is necessary to adopt more flexible approaches to business leadership in circumstances of uncertainty than has traditionally been the case and involving new ways of learning and behaviors.

Session A1 (Parallel): Preparing Business Leaders for a Turbulent World

The turbulence that our business learder are facing is increasing in both frequency and scale. Some are largely negative, for instance, global warming; while some are largely positive, for instance, the development of disruptive technologies. Both negative and postive turbulences not only pose challanges but also offer opportunities. What are the qualities and skills that our future business leaders must have, to better handle the risks and grasp the opportunties? And what roles should our business schools play in shaping such leaders for the turbulent world? This section focuses on how to seize opportunites from the turbulence and how to grow stronger in the turbulence.

Session A2 (Parallel): Business Schools Partnership for a Turbulent World

Business education was always more internationally open than most sectors because of its immersion in knowledge of business, which never showed much respect for juridical boundaries. Business education partnership has now become central to the changes sweeping through the OECD and emerging nations, in which worldwide networking and exchange are reshaping social, economic and cultural life. Nowadays, the whole world is getting more unpredictable, How should business schools’ partnerships across nations will be impacted by the turbulence?

Session A3  (Parallel): Transnational Business Education and Economic Globalization

Developing transnational education is one approach for higher education institutions wishing to develop and diversify their internationalization strategies and to help position themselves in new ways within a globalized environment. The recent two decades, increasing number of international universities provide business education in China jointly partnered with Chinese Universities, meanwhile, Chinese business schools have inaugurated their ventures by off-shore programs as well. The session will discuss how does the delivery of transnational higher education pose a significant challenge to university leadership and governance, including questions of motivation, strategy, risk, funding and human resources, as well as important academic issues, such as the maintenance of standards across a range of locations and/or modes of delivery.

Session A4 (Parallel): Business School and Sustainability Education

It is our concensus that business school education should move from the old paradigm of profit maximization or cost minimization toward a more balanced mission -- the harmonized development of economy, environment and society. The last three decades have seen many admirable efforts and innovative practices to advance this visionary idea. It is the time to share the wisdoms that we have accumulated in this venture. More importantly, we want to discuss how we could integrate the sustainability education into business school curriculum in less developed countries where sustainability is still less of a concensus among the business community, and what new perspectives that we should bring into the landscape as we move into a new decade.
