Towards a Business-like Business School: 1992–97

Allan P. O. Williams

Chapter 5 in The Rise of Cass Business School, 2006, pp 67-75 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract David Kaye was appointed Dean in August 1992. He had spent his whole career at Andersons, the consulting firm, and had retired a year earlier. His main knowledge of business schools came as a recruiter of MBAs for Andersons, and he had strong views as an employer as to what business schools should be doing. Kaye came out of retirement to complete five years as Dean. Three main structural changes took place during his first year. First, the School’s part-time MBA and executive education programmes were brought together to form the Continuing Management Education and Development Centre, co-ordinated by Hugh Murray. This included: the MDC, the Evening MBA course and the Consortium MBA. A further development of the latter degree was the ‘franchising’ agreement with the Middle East’s largest management education organisation — the consultancy firm TEAM. The agreement enabled TEAM to offer the Consortium MBA programme at its training centres in Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
