Sir Alex Ferguson Signs for Harvard Business School
Harvard Business School has made a high-profile signing in securing the services of Sir Alex Ferguson as a lecturer for HBS Executive Education.
The former manager of Manchester United, one of the world’s most prestigious football (soccer) clubs, has signed a long-term contract to pass on his insights into coaching and leadership strategy as part of HBS Executive Education’s new, ‘The Business of Entertainment, Media and Sports’, program.
Over a 26-year tenure at Manchester United, Sir Alex Ferguson won 38 trophies, including 13 Premier League and two UEFA Champions League titles, making him one of the most successful managers the game has ever seen.
“I’m delighted to have the opportunity and privilege to contribute to such a respected center of excellence. The time I have already spent at Harvard has been a stimulating experience and I look forward to developing my relationship and activities with the students, faculty and friends of the Harvard Business School community,” said Sir Alex Ferguson in a press release for the school.
By joining HBS Executive Education’s roster of teachers, Sir Alex Ferguson continues his relationship with Harvard Business School. He has already appeared as a guest lecturer at the school and his management techniques provided the inspiration behind two studies carried out by Harvard Business School professor, Anita Elberse, in 2012 and 2013.
“We look forward to welcoming Sir Alex Ferguson on the HBS campus to share his remarkable leadership journey, and contribute to our executive education participants’ ability to make a profound difference in the world,” said Elberse.
HBS Executive Education nears 10,000 participants in 2013
HBS Executive Education is a division of Harvard Business School, with the school’s faculty developing and delivering its programs for senior executives on campus in Boston as well as overseas in Mumbai and Shanghai.
The school’s first executive education course, the Advanced Management Program (AMP), was launched in 1945, and is still running to this day. In 2013, a total of 9,700 executives attended HBS Executive Education programs across a range of 80 open-enrolment and 60 custom classes tailored for organizations. The 4-day program featuring Sir Alex Ferguson on, ‘The Business of Entertainment, Media and Sports’, kicks off on May 7, 2014.
