Frank Brown Open House

Frank Brown is the new dean of INSEAD taking over later this year. We finally had a chance to say hello to him (I had to sneak out of class to be there for a few minutes but it was worth it). Extremely candid about what he wants to do for the school, he was very candid in responding to some very tough student questions. He did not commit to any "new schools in any specific geography" although he agreed that there are certainly expansion plans in his years as the dean. He had areas where he saw huge improvements on its way especially with respect to recruiters, MBA alumni relations and fund-raising. He looks like a "doer" and If I ever had a "Buy" rating on INSEAD, today seems to switch it to a "Strong Buy".

Comments:
DS,

With strong INSEAD brand and tradition I am sure your "strong buy" prediction will yield the desired results.

btw, i have sent an e-mail to "deathspiral2006@gmail.com". please reply.

thnx,
Bhavya
 
Thanks for your reply.

I have mailed you another query. please mail back once you have time.

Cheers,
Bhavya
 
Maybe Frank Brown should open a 3rd campus in India. Going by the number of Indians at INSEAD, it is a de facto Indian school.

Keep up the good work admissions committee! Soon INSEAD will be out of the top 10.
 
We are going to get a new dean as well...
 
anonymous 2. I disagree. INSEAD is a global school. With 1/6th of the world population being Indians, INSEAD has about 1/7th so if anything Indians are under-represented :-). We need more people from Africa and women, then we would be a truely global, truely diverse school.
