Business historians teaching at business schools

Business history has been included in the curriculum of several MBA and undergraduate business programs under the conviction that training in leadership requires a long-term and international sophisticated view of the world.  The place that introduced the strongest business history component to an MBA program was Harvard Business School, which has included in its faculty some of the world's most respected business historians, including Alfred Chandler, Richard Tedlow, Thomas McCraw, and Geoffrey Jones.  Other business schools around the world, however, have made significant contributions to the development and growth of business history.  The following is a partial list of business historians teaching at business schools.

This list is organized in alphabetical order and each name is linked to the scholar's website.  Business historians working at schools of economics are marked with an asterisk.  Please, contact me if you believe somebody should be included or if some information needs to be updated.
