This conference will demonstrate the expertise of senior managers from all UK Business Schools, pool business intelligence, set agendas for the year ahead and hear from leading experts and management leaders. Business school students are some of the highest paying and business critical to the wider university. Senior managers in business schools now deal with the most diverse and complex mix of students at undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral level, combining full-time, part-time and online students from all over the world with new types of curriculum and diverse sponsors. The administration of business schools will be at the forefront of the changes coming in higher and further education pedagogy and delivery. Like all large organisations, business school management and administration has to cope with changes in legislation, new ways of working, new staff and student entitlements. This conference will look at the key challenges for business school managers and administrators in providing stability and continuity for staff and students, while implementing significant changes. What advantage can senior managers and administrators provide in supporting staff and students to give their business school a high reputation in all areas of management education
