These days I do not really have time to read news about the Business Schools developments a lot. I still skim the headlines and read semi-regualarly. Now I am more concerned with my immediate MBA environment. But when I was in my preparation stage for part-time MBA I was more hungry for that kind of news and was searching for them, and actually reading a few times a week. I am talking not about the many message boards/forums, some of which are actually extremely helpful, but about main stream media.
There were many articles here and there from various sources, but at the end only one of them stood out as dependable source with regular new and relevant, sometimes amusing articles: The Businessweek section on Business Schools.
Recently, however, I stumbled upon a new media site for Business Schools news – BisinessBecause.com . I read a few articles and even added it to my permanent bookmarks. It is apparently a recent startup. It has noticebly different focus from Businessweek, which mostly covers US Business Schools with rare references to the business education outside the US.
The focus of the new publication I found is international with contributing authors from all around the world, including many from the US. But for me it was interesting to discover English-language online publication where I found articles about the super ambitious Russian International Business School Skolkovo project, or adventures of a Russian student in Italian top Business School, or some recent comment on Dubai crisis voiced by current MBA.
As I said, I don’t have much time to read nowadays, but these are the two sources I still try to skim through the headlines. Check them out to see if there is something interesting there for you. Especially, BusinessBecause.com for its fresh approach.
