Pursuit of Relevance in Management Education

Examines how this debate has contributed to the evolution of business schools and suggests how the pursuit of relevance can be complimented with the pursuit of meaning and beauty.

Reflections on United Electric Case Discussion: Persuasion/Induction/Grounding
	Add	View	6 pp.	Case Author(s): Spear, Steven Publication Date: 04/15/2002 Product Type: Note Product Description: An MBA classroom discussion revealed the perils of learning in which "theories-in-use" are not challenged and suggests strategies for more reflective learning. Two groups of students presented their positions at a conceptual level without grounding their conceptual argument in the details of their own personal, accumulated experiences that were the source of their personal theories-in-use. Hence, the majority was unable to recognize that the case situation under discussion was different from ones they had encountered in the past and that now affected their opinion. The minority could not show that their own theory was, in fact, the correct one even though their own theory-shaping experiences were much better approximations of the situation in the case. The underlying problem, it seems, is that both camps deprived themselves and others of engaging in an inductive discovery process by denying their audiences the chance to live (vicariously) the experiences that shaped their conceptual view of the world. Teaching Purpose: The lessons have specific relevance for case discussion leaders and general relevance for managers who must help those who work from them adopt the more productive behavior advocated by Chris Argyris.

Student Who Was Missing-in-Action
	Add	View	3 pp.	Case Author(s): Spear, Steven Publication Date: 06/04/2001 Revision Date: 06/15/2001 Product Type: Case (Gen Exp) Product Description: Assistant Professor Sam Benson was about to end the class session portion of his course with only student projects remaining. Then, he received a phone call from a student, George McHenry, who had missed 11 of 20 sessions. McHenry wanted to know what he needed to do to salvage his standing in the section so that he would be given a category-III grade and not a category-IV grade and avoid review by the Academic Performance Committee (perhaps jeopardizing his chances for graduation). In his first year of teaching, Benson didn't know how to handle the situation and received conflicting advice from senior faculty colleagues. Teaching purpose: Presents an actual situation and challenges the reader to arrive at an appropriate solution. The reader will have to consider short-term and long-term consequences of the decision that is chosen, with careful consideration concerning the reader's own philosophy about the division of responsibility in the learning process and the role of punitive measures to motivate and punish.
