Crucial Conversation 1: Billionaires & Business Education?

​In our upcoming Crucial Conversation, titled "Billionaires and Business Education?", we will critically examine the role of billionaires in the context of wealth inequality and the implications for business education. As the wealth gap continues to widen, with a small elite of billionaires accumulating unprecedented fortunes while many struggle to make ends meet, it is essential to interrogate the narratives that surround this ultra-wealthy class.

Drawing on insights from Carl Rhodes’ incisive book Stinking Rich, we will explore how the myths surrounding billionaires—as heroic figures, generous philanthropists, and effective problem-solvers—often obscure the systemic issues that contribute to economic injustice.
