I went to Business School and I am sorry
Since their inception, business schools have prided themselves on educating the crème de la crème of financial and marketing professionals. However, it seems that the current economic collapse is due in large part to the triumph of the specific brand of hypercapitalism that graduates of these schools are educated to implement and to serve. Are business studies really adapted to address today's social and environmental concerns? What role do these studies play in the disorders of our daily lives?
Florence Noiville surveyed alumni and met with current business school students in order to find the answers to these questions. Her research taught her that in order to avoid repeating the mistakes that lead to the current economic crisis, business schools must be restructured. These schools must now take the problem by its root and give future leaders a new way to approach the issues of the common good, the stratification of wealth, and the actual purpose of the financial industry.
The crisis has given us the chance to effect real change. For if we refuse to change anything, we will continue to teach our elite to view the world according to an outdated and obviously flawed economic model.
After attending Sciences-Po university, the international business school HEC, and receiving her Masters' in Buisness Law, Florence Noiville began her professional career in an American corporation, working in the financial sector. From numbers, she moved on to letters, finally fashioning a career out of the subjects that had always interested her: writing and literature. She became a journalist and literary critic for French newspaper Le Monde and hosts Le Monde des Livres, a literary television show on French television channel LCI. Noiville published a biography of the Nobel Prize-winning American author Isaac Bashevis Singer, for which she received a 2004 biography award, and a novel, La Donation (Stock, 2007). She is the mother of three children.
