Ultimately, finding the best and most appropriate business school requires more than following trends and assessing rankings. Dennis and Smith offer an approach that is designed to help prospective MBA students cast their nets widely, thinking more expansively, creatively, and strategically, with both short- and long-term implications in mind. Discussing the pros and cons of a formal business education (in the context of evolving attitudes toward management and the role of the MBA in developing successful leaders), the authors help readers identify their underlying motivations for pursuing an MBA, learn how to read between the lines of the popular rankings, and utilize the concept of return on investment (ROI) to evaluate programs on the basis of their contribution to long-term professional and personal goals. At a time when one-fourth of all master's degrees conferred are in business, Finding the Best Business School for You offers practical insights for making wise decisions and getting the most out of the MBA experience. The truth is that, in response to changes in the global business environment, many schools are redesigning their curricula, forging closer ties with businesses, and giving students more freedom to customize their degrees. Some of the most innovative programs are being designed at public universities and other institutions out of the spotlight.
Are you among the tens of thousands of managers who yearn to someday join the next generation of CEOs and presidents? Chances are, you won't get there unless you go back to school. The fact is, university-based executive programs are fast becoming a prerequisite for success at every level of the corporate ladder...and they're proliferating at business schools throughout the U.S. and around the world. They include two-day seminars on specific topics such as customer satisfaction, 11-week-long sessions on general management, MBA programs, and everything in between. There are lesser-known programs that produce big-time results, as well as those that have loud reputations but are soft on substance. So, where do you begin to select the one that will put you on the fast track - and punch your ticket for higher responsibilities and fatter paychecks? You begin right here. Business Week's Guide to the Best Executive Education Programs is a one-of-a-kind roadmap that leads you straight to the best offerings by the best business schools. The product of exhaustive research and hundreds of in-depth interviews, the Guide ranks each school according to the feedback from its two key markets: the student-executives themselves, and the companies that are often footing the bill. There are verbatim comments from actual program participants included throughout, lending a personal dimension to the rankings. And, to top it off, you'll find Business Week's own rankings - plus detailed profiles of the best schools, presented with the flair and insight so familiar to Business Week readers. Written in a lively and informative "you-are-there" style that goes far beyond mere facts and figures, the Guide reveals the20 "top-tier and 10 "second-tier" executive education programs...the 10 most innovative and creative programs in the field today plus the top 20 Executive MBA programs; highlights the top programs by subject and functional area, and tells you which companies favor which programs; features dozens of charts and tables that give you basic facts on entrance requirements, costs, and curricula at a glance; details which programs are the strongest for on-the-job practicality, and which are best for long-term career development; and offers tips on how to convince your company to send you to one of these elite programs. Candid, often surprising, and always reliable, Business Week's Guide to the Best Executive Education Programs is the only book that gives fast-rising managers - and the companies who spend literally billions of dollars each year on their tuition - the bottom-line story on exactly what they're getting, and what kind of "payback" they can expect, for their time and money.
Praise for Structured Finance & Insurance "More and more each year, the modern corporation must decide what risks to keep and what risks to shed to remain competitive and to maximize its value for the capital employed. Culp explains the theory and practice of risk transfer through either balance sheet mechanism such as structured finance, derivative transactions, or insurance. Equity is expensive and risk transfer is expensive. As understanding grows, and, as a result, costs continue to fall, ART will continue to replace equity as the means to cushion knowable risks. This book enhances our understanding of ART." --Myron S. Scholes, Frank E. Buck Professor of Finance, Emeritus, Graduate School of Business, Stanford University "A must-read for everyone offering structured finance as a business, and arguably even more valuable to any one expected to pay for such service." --Norbert Johanning, Managing Director, DaimlerChrysler Financial Services "Culp's latest book provides a comprehensive account of the most important financing and risk management innovations in both insurance and capital markets. And it does so by fitting these innovative solutions and products into a single, unified theory of financial markets that integrates the once largely separate disciplines of insurance and risk management with the current theory and practice of corporate finance." --Don Chew, Editor, Journal of Applied Corporate Finance (a Morgan Stanley publication) "This exciting book is a comprehensive read on alternative insurance solutions available to corporations. It focuses on the real benefits, economical and practical, of alternatives such as captives, rent-a-captive, and mutuals. An excellent introduction to the very complex field of alternative risk transfer (ART)." --Paul Wohrmann, PhD, Head of the Center of Excellence ART and member of theExecutive Management of Global Corporate in Europe, Zurich Financial Services "Structured Finance and Insurance transcends Silos to reach the Enterprise Mountaintop. Culp superbly details integrated, captive, multiple triggers and capital market products, and provides the architectural blueprints for enterprise risk innovation." --Paul Wagner, Director, Risk Management, AGL Resources Inc.
