AACSB APAC: Innovative Approaches in Higher Education

#AACSB #Accreditation #International #Conference

Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy and Innovation Office Dan LeClair proposed three questions for consideration for participants as the AACSB Asia Pacific Conference 2018 came to a close in Nagoya at the NUCB Business School Nagoya Marunouchi Tower Campus. First, in what ways are business schools innovating? Second, what can we learn from these innovations? And third, how are schools reorganizing and restricting to enable innovation?

Drawing in inspiration from UNESCO’s Sustainable Development Goals and Bill Gates, LeClair illustrated some of the best examples and best practices of AACSB accredited business schools that empathize, connect, organize and lead as well as laying out a framework of five strategic opportunities for business schools to innovate. Leading the session as an interactive dynamic and asking participants to contribute to the discussion – well suited for the NUCB Business School auditorium spaces used for case method – which perfectly addressed the conference theme “Innovations That Inspire, Challenge 2019.”
