Paul Beamish is expanding access to business education around the world. Through the 39 Country Initiative, he and his collaborators provide free access to business cases and teaching resources for universities in developing countries, providing students with a vital edge as they prepare for careers in business. “It's a methodology that allows students to get actively involved in learning how to make decisions, argue their position and negotiate. They develop critical thinking skills that go beyond what they can pick up from lectures, which are great for conveying facts, but not as good for teaching how to manage.” Through this work, Paul highlights that: - Expanding access creates opportunity. - Big problems require big-picture thinking. - Privilege carries a responsibility to give back.
