Indian-American Harvard Dean Says Sorry For Gender Bias At Campus
Today, some 57 percent of Harvard's cases are international in nature, up from less than 5 percent a decade ago. The school produces roughly 250 new case studies a year.
At the event, Nohria said that a record 41 percent of this year's entering class of MBAs were women, up from 35 percent 10 years ago and only 25 percent in the class of 1985.
"A lot of people wondered if we had to put a thumb on the scale," he said, to reach the record female enrolment number. "Everyone of those women deserve to be at Harvard Business School."
Boston, Massachusetts, based Harvard Business School began to admit women to its two-year MBA programme in 1963 with eight students. The school now has 11,000 MBA alumnae around the globe, including more than 1,200 women in Northern California.
Noting a recent World Economic Forum report that showed the US trailing more than 20 other countries when it comes to women in leadership roles, Nohria said "we can do better and we must do better.
"Harvard Business School has to lead the way to make that happen," he said.
