You are the manager of a firm that plans to expand the human resource base of its operation by hiring additional business school graduates over the next few years. You recently read an article in The Wall Street Journal that reports that enrollments in business schools have declined as students are moving into the “hard sciences.” That same article reports that the shakeup of upper-management is over at U.S. firms, and that over the next decade there will be a nationwide surge in the demand for MBA’s. How will these events affect your firm’s ability to expand its own base of MBA’s?
