"Chief
Executive conducted supplementary polling this month to discover how
education, training, and America's top business schools fit into the
CEO equation. CEOs were asked to rank America's top business schools.
Among the reasons they cited for their choices were the ability to
teach "hands on," to manage people creatively and not just solve
problems, and to instill an "entrepreneurial mindset," not the
stereotypical "Nobel Prizes and published papers" that many schools
like to advertise.

CEOs were asked whether they use business schools to educate themselves
and their management. According to their responses, approximately 56%
of the CEO community actively seek business schools to enhance the
skills of the top management of their companies. "CEOs in this country
fully appreciate the investment of education," said Edward M. Kopko,
CEO of Chief Executive Group. "Over half of CEOs seek the help of
business schools to stay competitive, and we should be proud that our
executives value education the way they do."
