The Social Enterprise Initiative started as an experiment at HBS. The dean told a donor to wait two years before he would accept a $10 million gift. As a reflection of the norms at that time, junior faculty members were advised that their research interests might amount to “career suicide.” HBS stepped into the void. Today, we see how those actions helped shape the practice of managers seeking change for good across the globe.

  • Moving Higher Education to Its Next Stage
    MOVING HIGHER EDUCATION TO ITS NEXT STAGE: A New Set of Societal Challenges, a New Stage of Life, and a Call to Action for Universities Rosabeth Moss Kanter Ernest L. Arbuckle Professor Rakesh Khurana Associate Professor Nitin Nohria Richard P. Chapman Professor Harvard Business School October 25, 2005 Acknowledgements: David Gergen has been an insightful participant in the development of these ideas. Valuable comments and criticisms were provided by colleagues in many Schools across Harvard University, including Mary Jo Bane, Barry Bloom, Derek Bok, David Ellwood, Allen Grossman, Ronald Heifetz, Howard Koh, Dutch Leonard, Kathleen McCartney, Robert Mnookin, Joseph Nye, and Howard Stevenson. Helpful contributions were also made by Tom Tierney and Jeff Bradach of Bridgespan Group and Harvard research associates Robert Tichio, Mike Kernish, Noah Kindler, Ryan Raffaelli and Daniel Penrice, along with faculty assistants Cheryl Daigle, Emily Hall and Alison Comings. Working Paper © 2005 by R.M. Kanter, R. Khurana, & N. Nohria. All rights reserved Executive Summary This paper describes a new model for universities: a third stage of education (beyond undergraduate and graduate/professional schools) to prepare experienced leaders, in the period of their lives once called “retirement,” for service activities addressing societal problems. This white paper is a proposal for universities to develop what could be the next great innovation in American (and global) higher education, on par with the creation of the modern graduate and professional school in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. It is a vision rooted in the notion that the purpose of the university is to serve society, and societal change demands innovation.

  • From Dean Nohria January 2019
    JAN 2019 FROM DEAN NITIN NOHRI A The year 2018–2019 marks a number of significant milestones for Harvard Business School: 50 years since the African American Student Union was launched, 25 years since the Social Enterprise Initiative was founded, and 20 years since we opened a global research center for the Asia Pacific region in Hong Kong. It’s also 10 years since we celebrated our Centennial, a time characterized by thoughtful discussions that engaged our entire community about the future of management education and of business itself—an exercise made all the more urgent and relevant following the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the global financial crisis that ensued. Beyond these anniversaries, this summer we completed the Harvard Business School Campaign, an ambitious, multiyear effort that ultimately raised $1.4 billion for student fellowships, the faculty, and campus growth and renewal, among other priorities, as well as new initiatives like Harvard Business School Online and the Harvard i-lab ecosystem. Equally important, the Campaign proved an opportunity to broaden and deepen alumni engagement, both with one another and with the School, and to build the next generation of leadership. These milestones provide an impetus for reflection and an opportunity to look ahead and consider the School’s most exciting opportunities and significant challenges. LET’S START WITH THE FIRST OF OUR Educating leaders for knowing, doing, “FIVE I” STRATEGIC PRIORITIES, INNOVA - and being was the direction we set TION IN OUR EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS. coming out of our Centennial. A decade ago, we took stock of our curriculum and that of our peer schools as well.
