The Impending Disruption of Traditional Business Schools - ILAN MOCHARI, INC
Some think B-schools are headed online. Others don't think B-schools can even teach entrepreneurship. "Half of the business schools in this country could be out of business in 10 years--or five," is the prediction Richard Lyons, the dean of University of California, Berkeley's Haas School of Business, made to Bloomberg Businessweek not long ago. Robert Lytl, an education consultant at the Parthenon Group, is advising directors at B-schools "to stop dallying and start building [online] programs," according to the Bloomberg Businessweek article. "Once you get out of the top tier of schools, you're either already online, on your way there, or dead in the water," he observes.
