Training leaders to tackle issues

ONE of the world’s top business schools in London said that it will set up an institute to tackle challenges facing poor countries - the first of its kind to do so.

The London Business School said the founders of the Lonely Planet travel guides had donated £10mil (RM55mil) to create the Wheeler Institute of Business and Development.“We can and should harness the power of business for a bigger purpose,” Francois Ortalo-Magne, the London Business School’s dean, said in a statement.“We can train this generation differently, so that they emerge as more inclusive, more courageous leaders for good.”
