Abstract
MBA programmes cannot escape changes; they must expand their curriculum to allow future managers to cultivate skills necessary to compete in a highly technical international environment. When managers lack fundamental skills the whole organization suffers. Outlines other changes that need to occur in MBA programmes to arm potential managers with the critical skills needed to guide businesses back to more productive manufacturing growth. Industry and business schools working together can overcome the shortcomings of future management and provide them with the necessary tools to meet successfully the needs of production and operations management.
