The MBA Association South East Chapter in collaboration with SETU are delighted to welcome Prof Lisa Anderson to deliver a seminar on the value of management education research for MBA professionals at the GrowthHUB, SETU Faculty of Business, Cork Road campus on Thursday, 5 March from 6.30-8pm, followed by refreshments.
Professor Anderson is Professor of Management Learning (Emeritus) at the University of Liverpool Management School, UK, with extensive experience in executive management education. The event is kindly funded through SATLE to facilitate keynote seminars in management teaching, learning and innovation.
A Love Letter to Executive Management Education.
In the current climate of mistrust of universities and the rejection of expert knowledge, I argue that management education has the potential to enable senior managers to flourish and genuinely benefit the communities and stakeholders they serve. I present findings and accounts from a study of 25 DBA graduates, all practicing senior managers, that offers insights into how they developed through a process in which scholarship and practice exert a mutual influence on each other.
The masterclass will give participants an opportunity to reflect on how they use research, evidence or scholarship in their own practice and what it means to have studied for a higher degree in a business school.

Over 160 billion times a day, someone taps a like button. How could something that came out of nowhere become so ubiquitous—and even so addictive? How did this seemingly ordinary social media icon go from such a small and unassuming invention to something so intuitive and universally understood that it has scaled well beyond its original intent? This is the story of the like button and how it changed our lives. In Like, bestselling author and renowned strategy expert Martin Reeves and coauthor Bob Goodson — Silicon Valley veteran and one of the originators of the like button — take readers on a quest to uncover the origins of the thumbs-up gesture, how it became an icon on social media, and what’s behind its power.
