摘要

JEFF SANDEFER DOSEN'T EQUIVOCATE when he describes what's wrong with business schools. The 46-year-old, who started the Acton School of Business in 2003 in Austin, Tex., says they fail at preparing students to run their own companies. Sandefer, who runs an energy investment firm in Austin, says he has seen too many B-school grads unhappy with their careers five years after graduation. "We want the best and brightest to find their calling," he explains. "Far more think that is consulting, investment banking, or private equity than it really is." Sandefer's Acton program is certainly a departure. For starters, all professors must run a business. The requirement reflects Sandefer's view that, unless you are riving an entrepreneurial life, you can't effectively teach how to be an entrepreneur. Compensation for professors is based in large part on student ratings. Each year the professor with the lowest ranking, out of the 11 now on the faculty, is not invited back to teach the following year (though they can return after that). Half the length of traditional MBA programs, Acton's one-year stint radically intensifies the learning experience. And while Sandefer, himself a Harvard MBA, has built the program around his alma mater's case studies, students are never told what the best solution is, and professors aren't allowed to tell them. Acton puts a premium on learning by doing. All students need to sell a real product as part of one class. And all must help run an assembly line set up on campus that manufactures circuit boards. "Few people know how to make the rubber meet the road," says Chris Shonk, 32, who graduated with Acton's first class in 2004 and went on to start his own boutique investment bank. "You learn how to execute."
