Abstract:
Globally, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted
in significant changes to the way organisations
operate – not least the business schools that
educate tomorrow’s leaders – and it seems
unlikely that this disruption will be reversed
in the short to medium term. This white paper
presents the findings of a study concerning
the study and work experiences of the Gordon
Institute of Business Science (GIBS) Master of
Business Administration 2020 cohort, based
on quantitative and qualitative data gathered
from students who used the opportunity
to express their concerns, needs, and
expectations for the future. Based on the data,
the authors suggest ways in which work and
study conditions can be improved.
