Getting to know the real you: Implementing a tutorial model for developing students' transformation capabilities

Business Education in the 21st Century: Developing Discipline Competences and Transformation Capabilities, 85 - 103

Organizations increasingly demand managers who can thrive in the growing complexity not only of their organizations but also of the broader marketplace. These demands have led educational institutions to search for ways to prepare business school students for an uncertain and dynamic future, efforts that have led to a need for a broader education beyond traditional business-oriented subjects. In this chapter, we outline the conceptualization, development, and learnings arising from the introduction of a tutorial program at Stockholm School of Economics to address the need for students to be more self-reflective and self-aware about their own education and personal growth. By outlining the process of implementing this program, we manifest: (1) the institutional factors and cultural changes that were antecedents of the tutorial program’s development; (2) the structural transformations and pedagogical goals associated with the tutorial program; and (3) the feedback received regarding the tutorial program. The chapter provides handholds, pitfalls, and potential benefits associated with the development of a tutorial program to guide educators and institutions to recognize similar needs in developing reflective and self-aware students - individuals who can effectively lead themselves and grapple with increasingly wicked problems in their educational journey and careers to come.

In this article, Martin Carlsson-Wall and Pär Mårtensson discuss the importance of face-to-face education. Even though digital technology has a lot of potential, the authors highlight how physical arenas are important for mobilizing all senses. For business schools like the Stockholm School of Economics, a world-class experience is most likely driven by traditional face-to-face education.
