How Well are Business Schools Managing their Brands? A Research Note

This research note reports on a study using a previously published checklist to assess the brand management practices of business schools. Indications are that the perceptions of a sample of senior administrators regarding how well their institutions manage their brands are not positive, and that there is much room for improvement. While the checklist used seems to possess the characteristic of reliability, further development needs to be done on aspects of its validity and underlying structure. Implications for managers and further avenues for research are identified and discussed.
