Courses in Innovation in an MBA

Some would say that's an oxymoron, but Businessweek reports:

As more institutions set up courses stressing innovation, students are learning all sorts of techniques to help them think outside the box.
B-schools are working to get students to think outside the business box. Professors say it helps people enhance their own personal creativity, as well as their management of others', because employers in the new economy value innovative and creative thinking as much as traditional frameworks and skills.



Hmm, so MOC was ahead of its time?

  1. Thinking outside the box is easier said than done. I am not sure how many Business Schools acheive in making students think outside the box.

    What they definitely do is introduce them to the existing and time tested management techniques and toughts !!!.
