Abstract
This essay contrasts management education in parts of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) with prevailing practices in the U.S. and Western Europe. Case material comes from the International Executive Development Center in Bled, Slovenia (IEDC-Bled) and the association of CEE Management Schools (CEEMAN). Rather than mimic the western model, IEDC-Bled turned to arts-based pedagogy and CEEMAN celebrated innovative teaching and relevant research among its member schools. This oppositional ethic counters the “accumulation of miseries” in management education today and opens new possibilities for management educators to contribute to social progress.
