Research
Management, like any other profession, has a role to play and a responsibility beyond business success to our society and towards our planet. BSL’s research is dedicated to resolving the key issues in business and management of the 21st century. As with our degree programs, BSL pursues a pragmatic approach focusing on applied research only. Rather than seeking to add to the body of knowledge, we challenge ourselves to apply knowledge across domains or within a new context. In the late eighties, BSL was among the first business school in Europe to introduce a DBA program, recognizing the importance of applied research in the field of business. More recently, recognizing the need to balance relevance with rigor, BSL has adopted a stronger and more focused research strategy supporting BSL’s overall vision as a leading innovator in business education.

Famous quotes containing the word research:
“Feeling that you have to be the perfect parent places a tremendous and completely unnecessary burden on you. If we’ve learned anything from the past half-century’s research on child development, it’s that children are remarkably resilient. You can make lots of mistakes and still wind up with great kids.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“The working woman may be quick to see any problems with children as her fault because she isn’t as available to them. However, the fact that she is employed is rarely central to the conflict. And overall, studies show, being employed doesn’t have negative effects on children; carefully done research consistently makes this clear.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
“The great question that has never been answered and which I have not get been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is “What does a women want?””
—Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
